Life's greatest questions have always been: Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going? You are about to see and hear one of the most significant messages given to us from God.

Get down
Wooooooo!
Get down

I'm lying to myself
And this dagger's my excuse
I'm a pawn
I Should have paid up
And I left an hour late
I was laid up

I must abuse myself
I'm against all that I've made up
Set in stone the sun will come
And I hate light
You know I hate light
To me it looks so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

I must have caught something
In the heat of all these dances
I'm a worm with no more chances
And I've lost all doubt
In a chemical romance

I can't stop itching
over thoughts of tarnished hope
kinda funny
lonely feeling
I'm not in love
You know it's not love
Don't make it look so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Brothers and sisters
I'm right here with you
Cause everyone's got one
A story to kill me
I'm so apathetic in my resentment
Living, loving, knowing not

Take my hand [x8]
Take my life
Take my heart take my mind
Take my life take my life

Burn the sun burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand take my life
Take take take take take take it away
Burn the sun burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand take my life
Take my life
Take my life
In Love And Death

all i can say is wow..i bought the s/t debut when it came out 2 years ago but it got old after awhile...and i had some doubts about the new album, but this song just silenced any possible doubts there could've been. This IS the best used song there is...can't wait for the new album on sep. 28th.

i hope we get to see new sides of the used with this album, even though they're already unique enough.

He is not refering to the actual band My Chemical Romance. He is just using the term chemical romance. It is a common term. The song is pretty sweet though.

the song is OKAY. when i heard it, i figured the rest of the album would be better, as that's usually the case with singles. sadly i was HORRIBLY mistaken as this song, a lacklustre, semi-aggressive attempt at hard rock, is the strongest point the band reaches on the new album. AND IT'S THE FIRST TRACK! it's ALL downhill from hear. this album is fucking pants and it's easily the biggest disappointment of the year. WAY TO LOSE YOUR BALLS, GUYS.

I was really excited for this CD, but after reading what Vash said, I am worried. Vash knows his shit, so this cannot be good. I was really hoping for a CD full of songs like A Box Full Of Sharp Objects.

The only thing I like about it is the chorus. I like it because it's heavy.

I was worried about how this CD might turn out, due to people saying it's nothing like the first one. I was waiting for the sequel to the debut album. But what I got was a surprise. And I'm not complaining. I like their new style. Not as good as before, but it's still just as good to listen to. This song actually doesn't impress me. Being the first single, songs rarely do.

This first single off the new album isn't breath-taking like "The Taste of Ink" was but it's still good. The chorus is really catchy which is probably why I like the song.

I feel they did an amazing job on the introduction to this album. Nothing better than starting a CD off with something like this. I think this is one of their better tracks, and what they did with the gun cocking is fucking awesome.

i think that Bert has become a showoff. He thinks his so smart n shit. I loved the old stuff. but now i can't even listen to that more. and dating Kelly Osbourne is 100 % WRONG!! take a look at her? so what if she's the daughter of a legend... thats old school anyway...

My question is, what does dating kelly or wearing a GC shirt have to do with the music, I love the used cause of the lyrics and the music, the rest are un important details!

yeah, if you're going to hate a band because one of the members is dating someone who you don't like and is wearing a t-shirt of a band that you don't like then that's bullshit. and vegitarianism isn't all that bad. i just don't get why SikTh, you hate the used now because of bert's desicions. and what's so wrong with kelly osbourne? if you're saying about her looks then your just shallow. you don't know her, maybe she's a bitch, maybe bert's a bitch. who knows? you're just fans who are bored so you go and comment on a song by a band you supposedly hate. get a fucking life, whores...♥

any band that can drum up 49 comments on one song is doing pretty well for themselves, it is funny how off topic all of these comments are.
