I was 9 years old. I heard them cover "All I want for Christmas is you" on youtube, and I instantly got hooked. Then I heard my first original song from them, "Helena"
I instantly became a fan and grew up listening to them. I would ask kids in my school if they have heard of them, and they would say no. :(
Then middle school came, and everyone instantly knew them. I was a fan of them before anyone else in school did. MCR helped me on those bad days, they helped me realize that no matter how ugly the world gets, I'll always have faith.
<3 MCR Forever <3
Fan since 2009.
I wasnt there when MCR began, but I will stick with them til the very end. <3

I said, we'll drown ourselves in misery tonight
White lies, 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-worn, I've been calling you all week
for my shotgun

Pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, fucker

I wanna see what your insides look like (I wanna see what your insides look like)
I bet you're not fucking pretty on the inside (Not so pretty)
I wanna see what your insides look like (Not so pretty baby)
I wanna see 'em (Not so)

Well you don't say
And well I can explain what happened to my faith
Late last night
I sleep in empty pools and vacant alleyways
And what I'm going 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
