[Instrumental Intro]

[Intro]
Check, check
(Check, check) Check, check
(Check, check, check, check, check)
Check, ch... Woah!

[Verse 1]
Don't believe what they say
We're dead flies in the summertime
They leave us all behind
With duct tape scars on my honey
They don't like who you are
You won't like where we'll go
Brother, protect me now
With blood they wash in the money!

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!

[Post-Chorus]
Uh, uh uh, uh, uh uh, uh uh
Uh, uh uh, uh uh, uh, uh uh, right now!

[Verse 2]
I'm sick, down from the bones to the other side
Red-mob, we insects hide
King rat on the streets in another life
They laugh, we don't think it's funny
If what you are
Is just what you own
What have you become
When they take from you almost everything?

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!

[Chorus]
Destroya, Destroya, Destroya, Destroya
Destroya, Destroya! Against the sun, we're the enemy!
Destroya, Destroya, Destroya, Destroya!

[Post-Chorus]
Uh uh, uh uh, uh uh (Uhh)
Uh uh, uh uh, uh uh
Uh uh, uh uh, uh uh (Uhh)
Uh uh, uh uh, uh-uh, uh-uh

[Bridge]
(I don't believe in God) You don't believe in God
(I don't believe in luck) I don't believe in luck
(I don't believe in you) They don't believe in us
(I just believe in the enemy) But I believe we're the enemy
(I don't believe in God) You don't believe in God
(I don't believe in luck) I don't believe in luck
(I don't believe in you) They don't believe in us
(I just believe in the enemy) But I believe in the enemy

[Post-Chorus]
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh (Uh uh-uh uh, uh uh-uh uh)
Uh uh uh uh (Uh uh uh, uh uh-uh uh)
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh (Uh uh-uh uh, uh uh uh)
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh (Uh uh-uh uh, uh uh-uh uh)
Uh uh uh uh, uh uh (Uh uh-uh uh, uh uh uh)

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!
You don't believe in God, I don't believe in luck
They don't believe in us, but I believe we're the enemy!

[Chorus]
Destroya, Destroya, Destroya, Destroya
Destroya, Destroya! Against the sun, we're the enemy!
Destroya, Destroya, we're all waiting for ya
Destroya, Destroya! Against the sun, we're the enemy!

[Outro]
(Destroya, Destroya, we're all waiting for ya)
So show me what you got, you children of the gun
(Destroya, Destroya) Don't hide and we don't run!
Against the sun we're the enemy!
(Destroya, Destroya, Destroya, Destroya!)
So show me what you got, against the sun we're the enemy!

[Instrumental Outro]

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
