Gerard Way Explains My Chemical Romance Breakup in Poetic 2,200-Word Letter
FUSE TV - Gerard Way Explains My Chemical Romance Breakup in Poetic 2,200-Word Letter
Following My Chemical Romance's brief announcement of their breakup on Friday, former frontman Gerard Way has penned an epic, poetic 2,220-word letter to heartbroken fans explaining the reasons for MCR's ending.
Well, sort of.
As you might expect for a post entitled "A Vigil, On Birds and Glass," Way's writing is more expressive than it is direct. He begins with the tale of a bird trapped in his home's library (he has a personal library?!) and says how that recent incident forced him to realize the pop-punk outfit he started 12 years ago was already over.
Way provides a litany of reasons that the Jersey rockers would never last permanently: " Fiction. Friction. Creation. Destruction. Opposition. Aggression. Ambition. Heart. Hate. Courage. Spite. Beauty. Desperation. LOVE. Fear. Glamour. Weakness. Hope."
But according to Way, the band's "fatalism" was the characteristic that ensured its demise. Sounding like someone explaining the plot of an old Star Trek episode, Way claims that he built a "fail-safe, a doomsday device" into the band's DNA to ensure the outfit would "terminate before it becomes compromised."
