Genius Annotation

The Demolition Lovers are the couple seen on the cover for MCR’s next album, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge.

This song, along with much of the album, is a prequel to the story of Three Cheers… in which a man makes a deal with the devil to get his dead lover back by killing 1,000 evil men and giving the devil their souls in exchange for her. This song is most likely where the lover dies. The two “Demolition Lovers” are featured on the cover of the album.
