Lyrics for You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In... as interpreted by Mike NJSS

You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In... Lyrics
in the middle of a gunfight
in the center of a restaurant
they say come with your arms raised high
well they're never gonna get me
like a bullet through a flock of doves
to wage this war against your faith in me
your life will never be the same
on your mother's eyes say a prayer
say a prayer

-chorus:
now
but i can't
and i don't know
how we're just two men as god had made us
well i can't
well i can

too much too late
or just not enough of this
pain in my heart for your dying wish
i'll kiss your lips again
:chorus-

they all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost
my cellmate's a killer
they make me do pushups in drag
but nobody cares if you're losing yourself
am i losing myself?

and well i miss my mom
will they give me the chair?
or lethal injection?
or swing from a rope if you dare
oh nobody knows all the trouble i seen

-chorus-

to your room
what they ask of you
they make you want to see(?)
how long
well i dont remember
i remember
do you have the keys to the hotel?

life is but a dream for the dead
and well i can't go down by myself
but i'll go down with my friends
take it like a man

okay first of all, if you dont even like My Chemical Romance why would you post a comment on one of their songs? Do you honestly have that much time on your hands? And yes this song is a about being raped in prison, and like you said "...they like it when there getting it up the ass y else would they make a song like that" hahaha thats sooo mature *sarcasm* oh wait...arent you only like 14? Thats what your profile says. So why are you going on about how this music is for "preppy 16 yr old gurls to listen to" Its almost like you're trying to portray yourself as someone who's so much older and more mature than us lowly 16 year-olds, meanwhile I doubt you have even hit puberty yet. So I have some advice for you: Stick to posting comments on songs you like. Because no one here wants to listen to you insult MCR's music or the people who listen to it.

ok if u cant take being insulted u shouldnt even be here, yes i am 14 but im alot more mature than u may think i am. y would they make a song like that there pretty much saying "make fun of this song plz." and the 16 yr old gurl comment was meant for the punks who think punks listen to this stuff. i hang with them all the time and i happen to no they dont. mcr is ok but there songs get played out and after awhile u just cant take it ne more. i do have alot of time on my hands and i just equaled mcr to n'sync and backstreet boys when i said the preppy 16 yr old gurl statement. and guess what? like i said 16 yr old gurls u just said so urself. o btw i have hit puberty lol and if i only post about songs i like its no fun so like i said before, if u cant take it dont come here i never said i hated mcr jeeze

no disrespect though u appreciate the music u listen to and i think that thats what music is about. mcr sings about alot more important things than rap thats for sure. i guess if they werent on tv every single day, i wouldnt have gotten tired of them. not many appreciate music they just "hear" the music instead of actually listening to it. i hope u respond to this cuz i didnt really want to piss ne gurls off, thats a bad thing lol

Okay, haven't read all of the stuff you ppl wrote, so I don't know if anyone has asked yet, but...

Does ANYONE know wether My Chemical Romance is putting out another album any time soon? I must know... "Bullets" and "Revenge" will only keep me preoccupied for a little while longer... I MUST have more MCR, I MUST have more Gerard Way... He's soooo SEXY!!! And he likes guys, too... HELL YEAH!!
.....(drifting in and out of Frank AND Gerard fantasy)...

first of all bert is in this song when these lyrics are sung(both Gerard and BErt sing this part)
am i losing myself?/and well i miss my mom
will they give me the chair?/or lethal injection?
or swing from a rope if you dare
oh nobody knows all the trouble i seen
__________________________________________________

second off i hate how ppl dont discuss what song mean on SONGMEANINGS.net. i think this song means, in a literal sense, that in prison, with only other guys, it can get kindof lonely. during the chorus hes like:
----------------------------------------------------------
"now/but i can't/and i don't know/how we're just two men as god had made us/well i can't/well i can/
too much too late/or just not enough of this
pain in my heart for your dying wish
i'll kiss your lips again"
------------------------------------------------------------
its about how hes torn between have sex with anohter man or not and in the end he gives in and now hes sum other guys bitch and doesn't want to be and allhes want is too go home but in the end he excepts it

I just listened to the song to listen to the bit about "do you have the keys to the hotel" because someone mentioned at the beginning of the comments, and I never even noticed it before. It sounds like Bert from The Used, too. Anyway i think this song is about prison really, with maybe a bit about all the guys in prison getting desperate and start going all homosexual or something because of the part when it says "how we're just two men as god had made us" and "i'll kiss your lips again", but then again...maybe not. i love this song!
