Remember, all we have for this demo's existence on the internet is the intro, 1st verse, and the video cuts off during the chorus of this demo.

(Intro)

[Verse 1]
Well, if you wanted honesty that's all you had to say
I never want to let you down or have you go
It's better off this way
For all the dirty looks
And never mind the drugs you took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor

[Chorus]
I'm not okay!
I'm not okay!
I'm not okay!
You wear-
[End]

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
