Pick up your broken feelings
And step up to the plate.
It's about the time for us to move on.
Forget about what has happened
In the past to us because
In the end it doesn't matter at all.
We'll carry on.
This life is so comanding.
I just want to speak
Through the fire that keeps branding
Us like cattle and sheep.
On my side, I keep landing
With fractured bones. They know I'm weak,
But I'm not afraid to keep on living alone.
But you keep falling down
Like a shooting star lost
To the Earth beneath its Heaven
Without the light it used to bear
For all the nations and empires.
Can't you see that I care?
Things are better if I stay with you.
I can't promise you mental health,
But I can promise you a hand
To lift you back up off the ground.
I'm a good friend,
Honest and true,
But you and I both know good and well
That I'm not okay (trust me)!
But I never said I'd be here till the end.
We both know our paths diverge sooner or later
And we'll be nothing but ghosts to each other,
Going bump in the night.
We'll soon have to realize that the other
Is never coming home. But until I fall,
I won't hesitate to march on, hand in hand with you.

My username is SunnyTerraNight and I've collaberated my favorite MCR lyrics to fit my needs. The songs match the stanzas. In exact order, they are 'Welcome to the Black Parade', 'Famous Last Words', 'Helena', 'I'm Not Okay (I Promise)', and 'The Ghost of You'. I hope it's what you wanted, because I sure enjoyed writing it!

I like it,
The two strongest verses, definitely, are the famous last words and the i'm not okay.
You can tell that they're derived from mcr lyrics, but you've expanded on them, made them more of your own.
The others, although they're strong, just seem as though you've retold the song.
But, I love the line
"And we'll be nothing but ghosts to each other,
Going bump in the night."
If you want to, edit.
Thanks for entering
