Some say
Now save all the children
And walk away a savior
Or a madman and polluted
From gutter institutions
Don't you breathe for me
Undeserving of your sympathy
'Cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry
For what I did
And through it all
How could you cry for me?
'Cause I don't feel bad
So shut your eyes
Kiss me goodbye
And
Sleep
Just sleep
The hardest part
Is letting go of
Your dreams
A drink
For the horror that I'm in
For the good guys and the bad guys
For the monster that I've been
Three cheers for tyranny
Unapologetic empathy
'Cause there is no way that I'm coming back again
And through it all
How could you cry for me
'Cause I don't feel bad about it
So shut your eyes
Kiss me goodbye
And
Sleep
Just sleep
The hardest parts
The awful things that
I've seen
When I heard Gerard Way explaining the meaning of the album he mentioned that the patient goes on a journey after the black parade comes to get him. He meets characters along the way who share their experiences with him. In my opinion this song is about one of these characters. This one is a man who has been executed for his crimes. The more I listen to these songs, the deeper the meanings get. It can be quite profound in the middle of the night.
i think this song is about kids who cant sleep because they are so scared to close their eyes because all they see is hatred and cant wake up from the darkness. ROCK ON MCR!!!
