THE MEMBERS OF MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE

| Bob Bryar | Mikey Way | Gerard Way | Frank Iero | Ray Toro |

FAST FACTS:

Bob Bryar: Drummer, Only Member of my chem NOT from New Jersey (Chicago) Former Sound guy for the used, hates being on camera, Replaced original Drummer Matt, likes cats. has fear of flying the he is getting over, and a fear of heights that get's worse if he looks up. Was recentley burned during a video shoot for a song off the Black Parade Album. Later developed an infection that rose up into his face and was hospitalized for a short period of time. During the recording of the new album, The Black Parade, according to his commentary in the booklet with the deluxe ed. CD, he "for some reason, turned into a dick and started to argue." he then was put in the "heavy room" a room used during the taping to discuss heavy stuff. He said things that weren't even related got put out in the open but in the end everyone always walks out of the heavy room happy.

Mikey Way: Bass, said to be the most likey member to stick a fork in a toaster, Brother of Gerard Way, was taught Bass specifically so he could join the band, in a relationship with Alicia Simmons (see Mikey+Alicia=love ). Wears a unicorn pin often by prettivacant.com, formerly known for his glasses and brown hair, he now has had lasic eye surgery and dyed his hair black. fear of sharks. When he was smaller he wouldn't go in a pool because he though there were sharks in it. Thought he was going to die during the filming of "The Ghost of You" when the boat started sinking. "i was like well, this is the end. the band was fun. i had lots of friends." ~ mikey way.

Gerard Way: Vocals, he died his hair white/blonde in order to replicate "the patient" the main character of whom the new album Welcome to the Black Parade is based. He revealed that his hair is black again on the band's new years performance. (yaay!) The patient is a character dying tragically young of cancer. Graduate from art school, worked for cartoon network (created "the breakfast monkey") until 9/11 when he was inspired to write "Sky lines and turnstiles" with Matt Pelisser (former drummer). Often described as "introverted, border line phsychotic" has over come drug addiction and alcholism and severe suicidal depression. Has a comic book due out next year. has a fear of hurting people while trying to make a message, fear of not being able to say what he needs to. tore a ligament in his ankle recentley during the same video shoot for a song off the black parade album (the same one Bob got burned during)

Frank Iero: Gutiar. Last member to join my chem, he left his former band Pency Prep to join. Names many of his guitar, the most famous was formerly broken by either a MTV guitar tech or Gerard was named Pansy, a alpine white Custom les paul. Frank is highly energetic and in a relationship with Jamia. Has many tatoos. Is born on Halloween. Owns side company skelton screw . Not a scared of heights as he used to be. Aracnaphobia and fear of anything with too many legs and too many eyes. Worms are okay but not with legs. Clausterphobia, doesn't like tight spaces.

Ray Toro: Original Friend of Mikey and Gerard, joined my chem as the 1st guitarist. Has tried straigtening his hair before but is now famous for his "fro". Is dedicated and hardworking, played drums in his band before my chemical romance. afraid of heights & drowning. Can't swim and when he goes out chest deep tends to step in a ditch and almost drown.

THE BAND: originally started by Gerard and Matt, they were signed to indie label, eyeball records, (where they met Frank). Later, they signed to Reprise/Warner Bros. when after the release of Three CHeers for Sweet Revenge, they got Bob Bryar as their new drummer and Gerard cleaned up creating a new sound and look. The band is known for thier Black, Red, and White theme colors, because "They are funeral colors" according to Gerard. The song "Helena" was written in dedication to Elena Lee, Gerard and Mikey's grandmother who passed away shortly before the recording of Three Cheers for Sweet REvenge. Her death touched the entire band as she was activley involved in the development of the band. Her death also changed the course of the songs on the best selling record. The record had 3 main hits "I'm Not Okay" " Helena" and "Ghost of You" of which each video was of epic porportions (DOWNLOAD NOW!!)

The New Album "Welcome to the Black Parade" is another concept album which follows "the patient" who is a character made up to be, "dying tragically young" and the album follows his journey into acceptance, and death with other characters along the way. Liza Minelli guest stars on 'Mama" along with the parents of the Ways, and frank's mom. frank's dad also assists with some purcussion on WTTBP.

LYRICS TO SONGS FROM "MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE WELCOMES YOU TO THE BLACK PARADE"
pretty much EXACTLY as they appear in the LMTED EDITION booklet!
(yes i did type ALL of this out just for you. yes there are typos...)
(yes i am crazy.)
(quote) "it's really very much about saying
'i can do this alone sometimes. I really dont...
i can get through this. I have to be strong...
i can...
i can make it....
I wanna live.' "
~Gerard Way on the new album and the song "Famous Last Words"
The End.
Now come one come all to this tragic affair. Wipe off that makeup-what's in is despair. So thow on the black dress | MIx in with the lot. You might wake up to notice you're someone you're not. If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see | You can find out first hand what it's like to be me | So gather 'round piggies and kiss this goodbye | I'd encourage your smiles I'll expect you won't cry.
AHHHHHH! AHHHHHH!
AHHHHHH! AHHHHHH!
Another contusion, my funeral jag | Here's me resignition, I'll serve it in drag | You've got front row seats to the penitence ball | When I grow up I want to be nothing at all! | I said
YEAH! YEAH! I SAID-YEAH! YEAH!
C'mon C'mon C'mon I said | Save Me! | Get me the hell out of here | Save Me! | Too young to die my dear | You Can't! | If you can hear me just walk away | Take Me!
Dead!
AND IF YOUR HEART STOPS BEATING I'LL BE HERE WONDERING DID YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE? The ending of your life | And if you get to heaven | I'll be here waiting, babe | Did you get what you deserve? | The end | And if your life won't wait | Then your heart can't take this. Have | You heard the news that you're dead? No one ever had much nice to say | I think they never liked you anyway | Oh take | Me from the hospital bed | Wouldn't it be grand? | It ain't exactly what you planned AND WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT IF WERE DEAD? DEAD. Tongue-Tied and oh so squeamish | You never fell in love | Did you get what you deserve? | The ending of your life | And if we get to heaven | I'll be here waiting babe. Did you get what you deserve? | The end. And if youre life won't wait Then your heart can't take this Have | You heard the news that you're dead? | No one ever had much nice to say | I think they never liked you anyway | Oh take | Me from the hospital bed | Wouldn't it be grand To take a pistol by the hand? AND WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT IF WE WERE DEAD? And in my honest observation | During this operation | Found a complication in your heart | So long | 'Cause now you've got Maybe two weeks to live Is that the most the both of you can give? LA LA LA LA LA! | LA LA LA LA LA! LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!Oh, motherfucker if LIFE ain't just a joke Then whay are we laughing? Then what am I dead? DEAD.

sharpest lives
WELL IT RAINS AND IT POURS WHEN YOU'RE OUT ON YOUR OWN IF I crash on the couch can I sleep in my clothes? | 'Cause I've spent the night dancing I'm Drunk I suppose | If it looks like i'm laughing I'm really just asking to leaveThis along, you're in time for the show | You're the one that I need | I'm the one that you loathe | You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose | 'Cause I love all the poison Away with the boys in the bandI've really been | On a bender adn it shows So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?Give me a shot to remember And you can take all the pain away from me A Kiss and I will surrender The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead A light to burn all the empires | So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be | In love with all of these vampires | So you can leave like the sane abandoned meThere's a place in the dark where the animals go | You can take off your skin in the cannibal glow | Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands | Drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands | RomeoI've really been | On a bender adn it shows So why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes?Give me a shot to remember And you can take all the pain away from me A Kiss and I will surrender The sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead A light to burn all the empires | So bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be | In love with all of these vampires | So you can leave like the sane abandoned me
welcome to the black parade
When I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band.He said, Son when you grow up, will you be the savior of the broken, The beaten and the damned? He said Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made? Because one day I'll leave you, A phantom to lead you in the summer, To join the black parade.When I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band. He said, Son when you grow up, will you be the savoir of the broken, The beaten and the damned?Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me. And other times I feel like I should go.

Disenchanted
Well I was there on the day they sold the cause for the queen And when the lights all went out We watched our lives on the screen I HATE THE ENDING MYSELF BUT IT STARTED WITH AN ALRIGHT SCENE Itwas the roar of the crowd that gave me heart ache to sing | It was a lie when they smiled and said you won't feel a thing | And as we ran from the cops | We laughed so hard it would stingIf I'm so wrong | How can you listen all night long | Now will it matter after I'm gone Because you never learn a goddamned thingYou're just a sad song | With nothing to say About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay | And if you think that I'm wrong | This never meant nothing to yaI spent my high school career | Spit on and shoved to agree | So I could watch all my heros | Sell a car on TV | Bring out the old guillotine | We'll show them what we all meanIf I'm so wrong | How can you listen all night long | Now will it matter after I'm gone Because you never learn a goddamned thingYou're just a sad song | With nothing to say About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay | And if you think that I'm wrong | This never meant nothing to yaSo go | Go away | Just run Run away | But where did you run to? Where did you hide? Go find another way | Price you'll payYou're just a sad song | With nothing to say About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay | And if you think that I'm wrong | This never meant nothing to ya| C'mon | You're just a sad song | With nothing to say About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay | And if you think that I'm wrong | This never meant nothing to ya | At all
Famous Last words

Blood. [Hidden Track]
Well they encourage your complete cooperation, Send you roses when they think you need to smile. I can't control myself because I don't know how, And they love me for it honestly, I'll be here for a while.So give them blood, blood, gallons of the stuff! Give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough. So give them blood, blood, blood. Grab a glass because thereâ€™s going to be a flood!A celebrated man amongst the gurneys They can fix me proper with a bit of luck. The doctors and the nurses they really adore me so, But it's really quite alarming cause I'm such an awful fuck. (Oh thank you!)I gave you blood, blood, gallons of the stuff, I gave you all that you can drink and it has never been enough. I gave them blood, blood, blood, I'm the kind of human wreckage that you love.
