Lyrics for Bury Me In Black as interpreted by TheShowerScene

Bury Me In Black Lyrics
I said, we'll drown ourselves in misery tonight
I lied, you've worn out all your dancing shoes this time

Just give us war, worn lipstick by the door if I inflame

These eyes have had too much to drink again tonight
Black skies, we'll douse ourselves in high explosive light

Just give us war, I've been calling you all week
for my shotgun

Pick up the phone
Pick up the phone fucker

I wanna see what you're insides look like
I bet you're not fuckin pretty on the inside
I wanna see what you're insides look like
I wanna see em

Well you don't say
And well I can explain what happened to my face
late last night
I'm sleepin next to pools in vacant alleyways
And what I'm goin through, shot lipgloss through my veins
And when I can't complain
With the falling rain

C'mon

I wanna save your heart
I wanna see what your insides may be

I like the backup singing. It sounds really cool.
It's like, "I wanna see what your inside look like. Bet you're not effin pretty..." "Not effin pretty... Not effin pretty, baby."
I THINK that's what he says. But anyway, awesome song.
When he says, "falling rain," I hear, "violent rain."
Or maybe it's just the way Gerard articulates it. Hee hee

This is my favourite song of them, and I've tried to understand it for a long time.

My thoughts are that Gerard is talking with himself, the "wrong" Gerard talking with the "right" Gerard.

I don't know if someone have thought this but:
"Shot lipgloss through my veins" ---> Heroin?
I've always thought that. He is completely alone, no support, just himself.

I guess the last two phrases are reffering from the "right" Gerard to the "wrong" Gerard.
Best song of the band.

Hey,i think that this is what the song is about:Gerard had a drinking buddy who got sober and stopped hanging out with him.Drunk Gerard got pissed and tried calling him to tell him how pissed he was,but he wouldnt pick up.So he went to go find him.They got in a big drunk fight (Gerard being the only drunk one) ang Gerard got fucked up.So...yeah.Thats what i think it means.

i think its about gerard's addiction and alchoholim, back before he got sober. its also a bit incoherent at times, and i think that sorta supports that in some way.
PS, some of the lyrics r wrong.

Omg, I thought I'd be the only one posting in 2008, lol... This (along with Our Lady of Sorrows) is my favourite MCR song, and my favourite song in general!!
"PICK UP THE PHONE, FUCKER!" I never thought of it as a ringtone, kudos to Gaz 182 for thinking of it.
I love how dark it is, and how it's filled with so much goddamn emotion. "Just give us war-worn lipstick by the door if I inflame" "What I'm going through shot lipgloss through my veins" Lol, they're singing about cosmetics...I love this song so goddamn much. It's my 'eff the world' song.
GAR!! Also, I just wanna point out that B12 or whatever is an idiot. There is no emo music. I don't give a shit how much crap I cop from all you who agree with him, but I remember Gerard saying emo was a piece of shit?? Pfft...if you guys all really knew MCR the way you thought you did, you'd know that they hate being called emo, and just hate emo in general. Also, My Chemical Romance is not going to change just to suit you, so stop saying they're garbage and grow the eff up!

Other than that, great song, and I still can't believe that people are commenting this well into 2008!! Well it is a radical song, MCR FOREVER

Yay for the rage and violence that lays behind this song. I mean, those aren't always the best of themes but this song is so aggressive it just fills ya with energy.

You should get Bullets the best album by far from My Chem they just got worse and worse from then on. :(


i actually liked three cheers better, it was a bit more technical.
i used to go emo this emo that, now i realize, there's no such thing as "emo music" there's just an emo lifestyle which is alot like the past nu-metal lifestyle who listened to linkin park and such.
anyway
mcr should've gone experimental/technical post hardcore, but they fucked up bad with the new album.
this song is like the requiem for mcr.

I also agree with dying star... THANK GOD FOR MCR! I don't know what i would do without them..
I think the song might have something to do with high school... Just give us war, I've been calling you all week
for my shotgun

Pick up the phone
Pick up the phone fucker
.. I think it might have something to do with fake friend ship and then also I wanna see what you're insides look like
I bet you're not fuckin pretty on the inside
I wanna see what you're insides look like
I wanna see em : i think this is about you know like the pretty blonde bitches, they are not pretty in the inside meaning that they might have all that designer clothes crap, but inside they are ugly like fuck!

DAMN i love this song. It's about alcoholism/drug addiction and the downward spiral it sends you on. Ruins relationships, fucks you up physically, causes depression, causes you to do things you would never do sober (a lot of regrets).

I wanna see what your insides look like.
I bet you're not fucking pretty on the inside.

^I love that part. and the way Gerard sings, "Well, you don't say?" So fucking great.

i think this song is maybe about beeing drunk and stoned or something like this.
i think the lipstick and lipgloss, that makes you pretty or whatever, mean drugs maybe.
"These eyes have had too much to drink again tonight"
... I dunno. ^^

Gerard's screaming on this is fucking amazing, y'know.
"I WANNA SEE WHAT YOUR INSIDES LOOK LIKE, I BET YOU'RE NOT FUCKING PRETTY ON THE INSIDE!"
That's great. One of my favourite MCR lines.
What can I say, I'm in love with this band!

I miss songs like this.
Its pure amazing. Its probably my fave my chem song. It makes me chuckle how other erm how should we put it... "crappy pop" my chem (sorry MCR) songs like Black Parade have 400 and whatever comments. Guess it goes to show you what kind fans they now have.
My Chem used to be emo/post-hardcore (pratically the same genre). Now they are some really shit pop/rock hybrid.
I wish I could go back to 04 and see them again just before they got huge. I liked the sweet ignorance back then and now i would saviour the beauty of the times with new pride.

Good song, but I don't see how everybody has such big problems finding/downloading it. I just found it on Limewire. I have both Three Cheers and The Black Parade, so don't worry I don't only download. And so you know, I'm VERY very happy with both of them.

This may be a little hard to understand, but I can easily feel how incredible much more My Chem means to me than all the other bands I have been listening to. My taste of music has developed from when I started loving it with Coldplay, but my travel has ended here. I just ain't looking for new music anymore! Ok almost not. My Chem is an amazing band, and by far my favourite one. I can never pick a favourite out of their songs.
