[Verse 1]
It's the tearing sound of love notes
Drowning out these gray-stained windows
And the view outside is sterile
And I'm only two cubes down
I'd photocopy all the things that we could be
If you took the time to notice me
But you can't now, I don't blame you
And it's not your fault that no one ever does

[Chorus]
But you don't work here anymore
It's just a vacant three-by-four
And they might fill your place
A temporary stand-in for your face

[Post-Chorus]
This happens all the time
And I can't help but think I'll die alone

[Verse 2]
So I'll spend my time with strangers
A condition and it's terminal
In this water-cooler romance
And it's coming to a close
We could be in the park and dancing by a tree
Kicking over blades we see
Or a dark beach with a black view
And pin-pricks in the velvet catch our fall

[Chorus]
But you don't work here anymore
It's just a vacant three-by-four
And they might fill your place
A temporary stand-in for your face

[Post-Chorus]
This happens all the time
And I can't help but think I'll die alone

[Bridge]
I know you don't work here anymore
I know you don't work here anymore
I know you don't work here anymore
I know you don't work here anymore
I know you don't work here anymore
I know you don't work here anymore
Sometimes, I think I'll die alone, sometimes, I think I'll die alone
Sometimes, I think I'll die alone, live and breathe and die alone
Sometimes, I think I'll die alone, sometimes, I think I'll die alone
Sometimes, I think I'll die alone, I'd think I'd love to die alone
Just take, I think I'd love to die
Me down, I think I'd love to die
Just take, I think I'd love to die
Me down, I think I'd love to die alone
I think I'd love to die alone, I think I'd love to die alone
I think I'd love to die alone, live and breathe and die alone
I think I'd love to die alone, I think I'd love to die alone

[Outro]
I think I'd love to die alone

My Chemical Romance

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
