Where i am
What i do
What i love
True or false
Real or not
Am i god
Im alone , my soul is gone
I will pray , i will cry while looking into the sky

Love for reality
I will not say sorry
it's over for you and me
Love for reality
It's you and me
Love for reality
Make me fly
Make me die
Where i am

What i love
True or false
Am i god
My soul is gone
Tell me where
I can find it
The love
For reality
It has begun
Go get my gun
Lets end this

Love for reality
Its you and me

Overall Meaning

The song "Love for Reality" by 97.8 is a song that delves into the introspective thoughts of the artist, a contemplation on what is real and what isn't. The lyrics focus on the artist's sense of isolation and loneliness as they question their own existence, wondering whether they are truly a god or just a figment of their own imagination. They admit to feeling lost and without their soul, going as far as to suggest taking their own life with the line "Make me fly, make me die."

Despite the bleakness of the lyrics, there is a sense of longing for something real. The refrain of "Love for Reality" acts as a plea for authenticity, a desire to escape from the uncertainty and confusion of their current existence. The repeated phrase "It's you and me" could be interpreted as a reference to the artist's relationship with their audience or a significant other, emphasizing the importance of human connection in a world that often feels unreal.

Overall, the song "Love for Reality" invites the listener to consider their own relationship with the world around them and to think about what is truly important in life.

Long ago
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you
Burning on
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break
And like the blade you'll stain
Well I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Came a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break
And like the blade you'll stain
Well I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

I really love all the freedom Gerard has when singing live. He isn’t afraid to change they key, melody, note, tone, brightness, etc. It’s really cool to have a song you know by heart give off a new vibe, or the same vibe with unexpected turns. It’s cool how you’re expecting him to go higher in his range at the end and he goes down the scale. It’s quite a beautiful thing to not know what to expect. The whole band is just incredible in every way. Mikey’s bass, Frank and Ray’s guitar, and Gerard’s vocals work so incredibly well together. I just wrote a whole essay on why I love live MCR performances. It’s 2am and I’m crying over a song. A SONG. Imma head to bed now.

@jewelzzzzz100 I’m sorry that this is a year later but come on now. Don’t be rude. He’s not making mistakes. If you can watch the Beginning again, he said that they DID practice before hand. Which is why he sung it that way. Plus it’s their song and can change it if they want to. Flaws make the song better and that’s what happened. If you don’t like it. Literally stfu

That Thing Gerard Does with Frank

5y↑2.7K

Helena was the first ever song I listened to by My Chemical Romance. It was in 2007, and I was 10. I was going through depression because my older brother had died, and he was the one who kept me going. I tapped on the song accidentally, and it made me cry. For the first time in the month that had passed after my brother’s death, I had cried actual tears. It felt good, and it was a relief to cry. I hadn’t been able to cry before that because it was just a lump in my throat. I felt no emotion other than sadness too strong to even make me cry. I cried so much during the song I thought I’d run out of tears. That song made me realise that the worst of the pain will go away, and, although it’ll always be there, it’ll get better over time. It gave me hope, and, whenever I needed to cry, I listened to Helena. I moved on to listen to more of their songs, and listened to Bullets, and also listened to Revenge. Bullets let me cry, and told me that it was okay. That expressing feelings was okay. Revenge also let me get angry, and it let me destruct things. I turned 13 a few years later, and the pain had returned, worse than ever. I self-harmed and starved myself. I had completely forgotten about the band. I came across the band again, and I listened and listened. Slowly, I began to stop starving myself, and I cut less, and I didn’t realise it happening. I learnt so many things from My Chemical Romance. I learnt that I was beautiful, that it was okay to be angry, that it was okay to want to *cry*. Years later, I found that they broke up, and I cried. I cried a lot because when the band that gave you the chance to do what you wanted to do breaks up, you realise that it’s over; that they won’t be making anymore music. I still listened to My Chemical Romance, and it helped me through the darkness.
My Chemical Romance has helped me so much, and they continue to. It’s crazy how much a band can help. You don’t realise it until they pull you out. I wouldn’t usually share this, but since I’m anonymous here, I will share. You’re all beautiful and worth something, because you’re you, and nobody else can be you. 💖

Nisa

ah, killjoys is one of the things the MCR group has given me... Your experiences shape my life... Please keep holding on to MCR and the members. And remember, you are more precious than you <3

Gerard's voice is beautiful, it has feelings in it
If some people don't like his voice then it's not our problem, just don't come and say he's a bad live singer.
His voice is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever heard, I understand it, even when I'm listening to mcr songs, without the music videos, even if some dont even have video, I can understand his voice nd I even know what facial expressions he's doing while singing. If other people don't like it, well, it's not our problem, bc we're killjoys and we will be here until the very very end, until they don't even have their solo careers, they're everything to me, and ofc, to every killjoy in this family, and I , we, will never forget them.
My Chemical Romance was the best idea ever.

Everyone in the audience looks miserable and totally not into it, some even messing with their phones, others standing there with their arms crossed and shit like they're unimpressed or tortured or something. It would be a fucking privilege to see these guys perform, especially in something so out of the ordinary for them like this. I doubt whatever shit is on their phones is better than watching these fucking graces of god play music. This is beautiful. I'm on the fucking verge of tears here, and these people look like they couldn't care less. God damn it.

yeah, it's kind of weird. At least they are being quiet for the song but how come they all look so uninterested? I would have killed to be there.

@Lilium K Are you talking about me? I'm not saying they should scream at all, I'm just saying that they should have some sort of emotion on their face rather than completely nothing.

Out of my gloomy and melancholy heart, the more i listen the more i think he meant bitter instead of better when he sang "what's the worst that i could say, things are 'bitter' if i stay.... " hurt me even so... MCR thank you for your music and presence, you have no idea how much you helped me battling my wild thoughts and emotions all through these years. Thank you so much ❤❤❤

I had to look up who was on the keyboard. James killed the synth on this. absolutely nailed it.

The acoustic version of this song has grown on me even more than the original. Glad they re-envisioned it. Absolutely amazing. Who agrees with me?

Living with Perks it’s definitely different. when gerard first started singing in this video i didn’t like it much, but as i listen to it more it is really amazing
