[Verse 1]
Everyone's a passenger, tonight
Just another accidental on the freeway of this life
We'll drive on and on and on and on
We'll drive on and on
And I'll remember this night when you're gone

[Chorus]
You surrender your heart
I surrender every dream
Every weapon you've got
Every secret that I keep
You can fight this, all you want
But tonight belongs to...

[Verse 2]
Just another surgery, tonight
Well, if you amputate the loneliness
Anesthesia dims the lights
So dream on and on and on and on
So dream on and on
And I'll remember your eyes when you're gone

[Chorus]
You surrender your heart
I surrender every dream
Every weapon you've got
Every secret that I keep
You can fight this, all you want
But tonight belongs to me

And I'll watch you in your sleep
'Cause tonight belongs to me
You can fight this, all you want
But tonight belongs to

[Bridge]
Sparks against the railing
Distant phantoms wailing
Through the windshield, sailing
With these airbags failing

[Chorus]
Now, you surrender your heart
I surrender every dream
Every weapon you've got
Every secret that I keep

You can fight this, all you want
But tonight belongs to me
And I'll watch you in your sleep
You can fight this all you want

But tonight belongs to me
But tonight belongs to me
But tonight belongs to me

My Chemical Romance is an alt/punk/hardcore rock band that produced four studio albums and a compilation album over their initial twelve-year lifespan from 2001-2013. They then went on a six-year hiatus, until Halloween of 2019, when they announced a long-awaited revival of the band. They have touched the hearts of millions through their honest, raw lyrics and inspirational stories.

The band started after front-man and founder Gerard Way witnessed the 9/11 terror attacks in New York City. He felt compelled to empower people and make a difference in the world. As a result, he wrote the band’s first song, “Skylines And Turnstiles.” He shared the lyrics with his friend Matt Pelissier, who agreed to be the then-unnamed band’s drummer. Gerard then recruited Ray Toro, whom he used to be in a band with as the lead guitarist, and eventually invited his brother Mikey Way to be the bassist, and Frank Iero to be the rhythm guitarist.

Their first album, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, was released in 2002 and was recorded in Matt Pelissier’s attic. Because of this, some of the songs are lovingly referred to as the “attic demos.” The album’s copyright warning
