“Desert Song” was intended on being an unreleased track. It was written while Gerard Way was suicidal and recorded while he was drunk.
Gerard introduced the song in a live show, by saying,
This song we’re about to play is about being in a band, and specifically about being in this band. And I know...
[Verse]
We hold in our hearts the sword and the faith
Swelled up from the rain, clouds move like a wraith
Well after all, we'll lie another day
And through it all, we'll find some other way
To carry on through cartilage and flood
And did you come to stare or wash away the blood?
[Chorus]
Well tonight, well tonight
Will it ever come?
Spend the rest of your days rocking out
Just for the dead
Well tonight
Will it ever come?
I can see you awake anytime, in my head
[Bridge]
Did we all fall down
Did we all fall down
Did we all fall down
Did we all fall down?
From the lights to the pavement
From the van to the floor
From backstage to the doctor
From the Earth to the morgue, morgue, morgue, morgue
[Chorus]
Well tonight
Will it ever come?
Spend the rest of your days rocking out
Just for the dead
Well tonight
Will it ever come?
I can see you awake anytime, in my head
[Outro]
All fall down
Well after all
