Teenagers: Dedicated To My Chemical Romance

Prologue: Welcome To The Black Parade

My name is Emily Crawford. I've been a fan of My Chemical Romance since when I was six years old (2006). I remember that I always listen to their songs everyday when I was a kid and my mom always yells at me to turn the volume down because it's disturbing the neighbors.

I stopped listening to them when I was 11 years old (2011), because I'm starting to like other genres like pop, hip hop, rap, etc, and artists like jessie j, eminem, jay z, cali swag district (they were very popular in those days), Melanie Martinez, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez. I have completely forgotten MCR. I have completely changed my personality. I don't know why, maybe because I'm starting to grow up.

During the years 2012 - 2014, I became a dancer, singer, a swaggy girl (haha I know), sketch artist, likes acting, and a girl who loves fandoms and actors. During these years, I have discovered many things about myself that I didn't know that I have in me. I entered in the Marvel fandom, I discovered Tom Hiddleston (such an angel), started reading novels like The Fault In Our Stars, and many more. So many things changed. Until one day, something happened.

Last Friday, I came home from school, just the end of our exams, changed my clothes, and lay down on my bed. I was bored, so I got up to get my laptop to listen to spotify.

Nothing popped an artist on my head. So I tried to type random words on the search bar. Then a name popped on the results.

It was MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE.

I was completely shocked to see that the result was my favorite childhood rock band. I immediately clicked it and it went to their official page. I was so happy!!! I was having mixed emotions! I clicked one of their albums, and clicked shuffle. A song started to play.

THAT SONG WAS WELCOME TO THE BLACK PARADE!

The first note of the piano played, and tears immediately filled up my eyes. Oh my God. It's been almost 4 years that I haven't listened to their songs. Then the lyrics started to play. I closed my eyes and listened carefully.

"When I was a young boy, my father took into the city, to see the marching band."

I cried hard. I've never cried hard like this before. It's so painful. I realized that I miss them so, so much.

"He said, 'Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?'"

The drums start to beat, and I join the rythm with the stomping of my bare feet. The guitar joined the drums and I gently banged my head repeatedly to the rythm.

While listening to the music, I opened google and searched them on the wikipedia. I clicked their name and read. "Oh, that's them! Oh my god, Gerard and Mikey! Aww", I thought. I read the context and scrolled down to read more. The last sentence nearly broke me.

"The band broke up in March 2013."

I paused. I think my heart exploded at that moment. "No. This can't be", I thought. But it was true. This is the worst news that I've ever read. I put my face on my hands and exhaled shakily, tears still falling to my eyes. "Why did this happen? I just disappeared for 4 years and this happened? It's not fair." I said to myself. I cried harder.

This hurts so much.
