Fanmix: "Let This World Explode;; Carnivale
Title: Let This World Explode
Fandom: Carnivale
Spoilers: For most of the first season, up until "Lonnigan, Texas"
Characters/Pairing: Gen
Tracks: 18 (17 mp3; 1 m4a; 60 min)
Notes: This started as an idea I had to make a picspam and fanmix for Carnivale using only My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade. This is what happens when I listen to an album for the first time while watching a show for the first time. Anyway, after some thought, and difficulty making every song on The Black Parade fit Carnivale I decided I would branch out a bit, but not too much, that is why the fanmix is really only My Chemical Romance and Green Day (with surprise!Bon Jovi thrown in there too).

♠ song of the century;; GREEN DAY (tommy dolan)
sing us the song of the century
its louder than bombs and eternity
the era of static and contraband
leading us into the promised land
tell us a story that's by candlelight
waging a war and losing the fight
they're playing a song of the century
of panic and promise and prosperity
tell me a story into that goodnight
sing us a song for me
♠ boulevard of broken dreams - GREEN DAY
i walk a lonely road
the only one that i have ever known
don't know where it goes
but its home to me and i walk alone
i walk this empty street
on the boulevard of broken dreams
when the city sleeps
and i'm the only one and i walk alone
my shadows the only one that walks beside me
my shallow heart's the only thing thing that's beating
sometimes i wish someone out there will find me
till then i walk alone
i'm walking down the line
that divides me somewhere in my mind
on the borderline
of the edge and where i walk alone
read between the lines
what's fucked up and everything's all right
check my vital signs
and know i'm still alive and i walk alone
i walk alone, i walk alone
i walk alone i walk a-
my shadow's the only one that walks besides me
my shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
sometimes i wish someone out there will find me
till then i walk alone
♠ sleep - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
some say now suffer all the children and walk away a savior
or a madman and polluted from gutter institutions
don't you breathe on me, undeserving of your sympathy
cause there aint no way that i'm sorry for what i've done
and through it all how could you cry for me
cause i don't feel bad about it
so shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye
and sleep, just sleep
the hardest part is letting go of your dreams
a drink for the horror that i'm in, for the good guys and the bad guys
for the monsters that i've been
three cheers for tyranny, unapologetic apathy
cause there aint no way that i'm coming back again
and through it all how could you cry for me
cause i don't feel bad about it
so shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye
and sleep, just sleep
the hardest part is the awful things that i've seen
♠ na na na - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
drugs, gimme drugs, gimme drugs; i don't need 'em
but i'll sell what you got, take the cash and i'll keep it
eight legs to the wall, hit the gas, kill 'em all
and we crawl, and we crawl, and we crawl
you be my detonator
love, gimme love, gimme love, i don't need it
but i'll take what i want from your heart and i'll keep it
in a bag, in a box, put an "x" on the floor
gimme more, gimme more, gimme more
shut up and sing it with me
----------------------------------------
right here, right now, all the way in battery city
the little children raise their open filthy palms
like tiny daggers up to heaven
and all the juvie halls and the ritalin rats
ask angels made from neon and fucking garbage
what will save us? and the sky opened up
everybody wants to change the world
everybody wants to change the world
but no one, no one wants to die
wanna try, wanna try, wanna try, wanna try, wanna try now
i'll be your detonator
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
(na na na na na na na na na na na)
make no apology,
its death or victory
on my authority,
crash and burn
young and loaded
(na na na na na na na na na na na)
drop like a bulletshell,
dress like a sleeper cell
i'd rather go to hell
than be in purgatory
cut my hair,
gag and bore me,
pull this pin,
let this world explode
♠ basket case - GREEN DAY (clayton "jonesy" jones & ben hawkins)
do you have the time to listen to me whine
about nothing and everything all at once
i am one of those melodramatic fools
neurotic to the bone no doubt about it
sometimes i give myself the creeps
sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
it all keeps adding up, i think i'm cracking up
am i just paranoid, am i just stoned
i went to a shrink to analyze my dreams
she says its lack of sex that's bringing me down
i went to a whore, he said my life's a bore
so quit my whining cause its bringing her down
♠ viva la gloria (little girl) - GREEN DAY (women of carnivale)
little girl, little girl why are you crying
inside your restless soul your heart is dying
little one, little one your soul is purging
of love and razorblades your blood is surging
little girl, little girl your life is calling
the charlatains and saints of your abandon
little one, little one the sky is falling
your lifeboat of deception is now sailing
in the wake (run away), all the way no rhyme or reason
your bloodshot eyes will show your heart of treason
little girl, little girl you dirty liar
you're just a junkie preaching to the choir
run away, from the river to the street
and find yourself with your face in the gutter
you're a stray for the salvation army
there is no place like home, when you've got no place to go
your traces of blood always follow you home
like the mascera tears from your getaway
you're walking with blisters and running with shears
so unholy, sister of grace
♠ teenagers - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
they're gonna clean up your looks
with all the lies in the books
to make a citizen out of you
because they sleep with a gun
and keep an eye on you son
so they can watch all the things you do
because the drugs never work
they're gonna give you a smirk
cause they've got methods of keeping you clean
they're gonna rip off your heads
your aspirations to shreds
another cog in the murder machine
they said all
teenagers scare the living shit out of me
they could care less as long as someone'll bleed
so darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
maybe they'll leave you alone but not me
they boys and girls in the clique
the awful names that they stick
you're never gonna fit in much kid
but if you're troubled and hurt
what you got under your shirt
will make 'em pay for the things that they did
♠ the end/dead! - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE (babylon/pick a number)
(the end)
now come one, come all to this tragic affair
wipe off that makeup, what's in his despair
so throw on the black dress mix in with the lot
you might wake up and notice you're someone you're not
if you look in the mirror and don't like what you see
you can find out firsthand what its like to be me
so gather round piggies and kiss this goodbye
i'd encourage your smiles, i'll expect you won't cry
another contusion my funeral jag
here's my resignation, i'll serve it in drag
you've got front row seats to the penetance ball
when i grow up i want to be nothing at all
i said yeah, yeah
i said yeah, yeah
well come on, come on, come on i said
save me (get me the hell out of here)
save me (i'm too young to die and my dear)
you can't (if you can hear me just walk away)
take me
(dead!)
and if your heart stops beating i'll be here wondering
did you get what you deserve, the ending of your life
and if you get to heaven i'll be here waiting babe,
did you get what you deserve, the end
and if your life won't wait, then your heart can't take this
have you heard the news that you're dead
no one ever had much nice to say
i think they never liked you anyway
oh take me from the hospital bed
wouldn't it be grand, it aint exactly what you planned
and wouldn't it be great if we were dead... oh dead
tongue-tied and oh-so squeamish, you never fell in love
did you get what you deserve, the ending of your life
and if you get to heaven, i'll be here waiting babe
did you get what you deserve, the end
and if your life won't wait, then your heart can't take this
have you heard the news that you're dead
no one ever had much nice to say
i think they never liked you anyway
oh take me from the hospital bed
wouldn't it be grand to take the pistol by the hand
and wouldn't it be great if we were dead
-------------------------------------
1-2; 1 2 3 4
la la la la la
la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
well come on
la la la la la
la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
motherfuckers
if life aint just a joke then why are we laughing
if life aint just a joke then why are we laughing
if life aint just a joke then why are we laughing
if life aint just a joke then why am i dead?
DEAD!
♠ mama - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
mama we all go to hell
mama we all go to hell
i'm writing this letter and wishing you well
mama we all go to hell
oh mama, we're all gonna die
mama we're all gonna die
stop asking me questions
i'd hate to see you cry
mama we're all gonna die
mama we're all full of lies
mama we're meant for the flies
and right now they're building a coffin your size
mama we're all full of lies
well mother what the war did to my legs and to my tongue
you should have raised a baby girl, i should have been a better son
if you could coddle the infection they can amputate at once
you shoulda been, i could have been a better son
and when we go don't blame us, yeah
we'll let the fires just bathe us, yeah
you made us oh so famous
we'll never let you go
she said you aint no son of mine
for what you've done they're gonna find
a place for you and just you mind your manners when you go,
when you go don't return to me my love, that's right
mama we all go to hell
mama we all go to hell
its really quite pleasant
except for the smell
mama we all go to hell
and if you would call me your sweetheart
i'd maybe then sing you a song
but the shit that i've done with this fuck of a gun
you would cry out your eyes all along
we're doomed after all
through fortune and flame we call
and if you could say then i'll show you the way
to return from the ashes you call
we all carry on
though our brothers in arms are gone
so raise your glass high for tomorrow we die
and return from the ashes you call
♠ give me novacaine - GREEN DAY (clayton "jonesy" jones)
take away the sensation inside
bittersweet migraine in my head
its like a throbbing toothache of the mind
i can't take this feeling anymore
drain the pressure from the swelling
this sensation's overwhelming
give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything'll be all right
tell me that i won't feel a thing
so give me novacaine
out of body and out of mind
kiss the demons out of my dreams
i get the funny feeling that's all right
jimmy says its better than air
♠ blaze of glory - JON BON JOVI (ben hawkins)
wake up in the morning and i raise my weary head
got an old coat for a pillow and the earth was last night's bed
i don't know where i'm goin', only god knows where i been
i'm a devil on the run, a six gun lover, a candle in the wind
you're brought into this world, well they say you're born in sin
well at least they gave me something, i didn't have to steal or have to win
they tell me that i'm wanted, yeah i'm a wanted man
i'm a colt in your stable, i'm what cain was to abel mister catch me if you can
you ask about my conscience and i offer you my soul
you ask if i'll grow to be a wise man, well i ask if i'll grow old
i'm going down in a blaze of glory
take me now, but know the truth
i'm going out in a blaze of glory
♠ welcome to the black parade - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
when i was a young boy my father took me into the city
to see a marching band
he said, 'son when you grow up will you be the savior of the broken
the beaten and the damned?'
he said 'will you defeat them, your demons and all the non-believers
the plans that they have made.
because one day, i'll leave you, a phantom to lead you in the summer
to join the black parade.'
sometimes i get the feeling she's watching over me
and other times i feel like i should go
and through it all, the rise and fall the bodies in the streets
and when you're gone we want you all to know
we'll carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're dead and gone believe me
your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
and in my heart i can't contain it, the anthem won't explain it
a world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
so paint it black and take it back, we'll shout out loud and clear
defiant to the end we hear the call
do or die, you'll never make me
because the world will never take my heart
go and try, you'll never break me
we want it all, we wanna play this part
i won't explain or say i'm sorry
i'm unashamed i'm gonna show my scar
give a cheer for all the broken
listen here because its who we are
i'm just a man, i'm not a hero
i'm just a boy who had to sing this song
i'm just a man, i'm not a hero
i don't care
we'll carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're dead and gone belive me
your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're broken and defeated
your weary widow marches on
♠ are we the waiting - GREEN DAY (sofie and libby)
starry nights, city of lights coming down over me
skyscrapers, stargazers in my head
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
this dirty town is burning down in my dreams
lost and found, city bound in my dreams
forget me nots, second thoughts; live in isolation
heads or tails, fairytales in my mind
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
the rage and love, the story of my life
the jesus of suburbia is a lie, and screaming
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting (and screaming)
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting (and screaming)
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
♠ house of wolves - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE (justin crowe)
well i know a thing about contrition
because i've got enough to spare
and i'll be granting your permission
because you haven't got a prayer
and i said, hey hallelujah,
i'm gonna come on sing the praise
let the spirit come on through ya
we got innocence for days
well i think i'm gonna burn in hell
everybody burn the house right down
and say hey, what i wanna say
tell me i'm an angel take this to my grave
tell me i'm a bad man, kick me like a stray
tell me i'm an angel, take this to my grave
you play ring around the ambulance
like you never gave a care
so get the choir boys around you
its a compliment, i swear
i said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
i wanna hear you sing the praise
i said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
we've got innocence for days
♠ east jesus nowhere - GREEN DAY
and we will see how godless a nation we have become
raise your hands now to testify
your confession will be crucified
you're a sacrificial suicide
like a dog that's been sodomized
well stand up, all the white boys
sit down, all the black girls
stand up, you're the soldiers
sit down, of the new world
put your faith in a miracle
and its non-demoninational
join the choir we'll be singing
in the church of wishful thinking
bless me lord for i have sinned
its been a lifetime since i last confessed
i threw my crutches in the river of a shadow of doubt
and i'll be dressed up in my sunday best
say a prayer for the family
drop a coin for humanity
aint this uniform so flattering
i never asked you a god damned thing
don't test me
second guess me,
protest me
you will disappear
i wanna know who's allowed to breed
all the dogs who never learned to read
missionary politicians
and the cops of the new religion
a fire burns today of blasphemy and genocide
the sirens of decay will infiltate the inside
♠ the static age - GREEN DAY (tommy dolan)
can you hear the sound of the static noise blasting down the stereo
catered to the class and the paranoid; music to my nervous system
advertising love and religion; murder on the airwaves
slogans on the brink of corruption, visions of blasphemy, war and peace
oh, screaming at you
i can't ee a thing in the video,
i can't hear a sound on the radio
in stereo in the static age
all i wanna know is a god damned thing not what's in the medicine
all i want to do is i want to breathe, batteries are not included
what's the latest way that a man can die, "screaming hallelujah"
sing of the dawn's early light, silence of the rotten, forgotten
oh screaming at you
♠ good riddance (time of your life) - GREEN DAY
another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
time grabs you by the wrists, directs you wear to go
so make the best of this test and don't ask why
its not a question but a lesson learned in time
its something unpredictable but in the end is right
i hope you had the time of you life
so take the photographs and still frames in your mind
hang them on a shelf in good health and good time
tattoos and memories and dead skin on trial
for what its worth it was worth all the while
its something unpredictable but in the end is right
i hope you had the time of your life

i get the funny feeling that's all right
jimmy says its better than air
♠ blaze of glory - JON BON JOVI (ben hawkins)
wake up in the morning and i raise my weary head
got an old coat for a pillow and the earth was last night's bed
i don't know where i'm goin', only god knows where i been
i'm a devil on the run, a six gun lover, a candle in the wind
you're brought into this world, well they say you're born in sin
well at least they gave me something, i didn't have to steal or have to win
they tell me that i'm wanted, yeah i'm a wanted man
i'm a colt in your stable, i'm what cain was to abel mister catch me if you can
you ask about my conscience and i offer you my soul
you ask if i'll grow to be a wise man, well i ask if i'll grow old
i'm going down in a blaze of glory
take me now, but know the truth
i'm going out in a blaze of glory
♠ welcome to the black parade - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
when i was a young boy my father took me into the city
to see a marching band
he said, 'son when you grow up will you be the savior of the broken
the beaten and the damned?'
he said 'will you defeat them, your demons and all the non-believers
the plans that they have made.
because one day, i'll leave you, a phantom to lead you in the summer
to join the black parade.'
sometimes i get the feeling she's watching over me
and other times i feel like i should go
and through it all, the rise and fall the bodies in the streets
and when you're gone we want you all to know
we'll carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're dead and gone believe me
your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
and in my heart i can't contain it, the anthem won't explain it
a world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
so paint it black and take it back, we'll shout out loud and clear
defiant to the end we hear the call
do or die, you'll never make me
because the world will never take my heart
go and try, you'll never break me
we want it all, we wanna play this part
i won't explain or say i'm sorry
i'm unashamed i'm gonna show my scar
give a cheer for all the broken
listen here because its who we are
i'm just a man, i'm not a hero
i'm just a boy who had to sing this song
i'm just a man, i'm not a hero
i don't care
we'll carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're dead and gone belive me
your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
and though you're broken and defeated
your weary widow marches on
♠ are we the waiting - GREEN DAY (sofie and libby)
starry nights, city of lights coming down over me
skyscrapers, stargazers in my head
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
this dirty town is burning down in my dreams
lost and found, city bound in my dreams
forget me nots, second thoughts; live in isolation
heads or tails, fairytales in my mind
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
the rage and love, the story of my life
the jesus of suburbia is a lie, and screaming
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting (and screaming)
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting (and screaming)
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
are we, we are; are we, we are the waiting unknown
♠ house of wolves - MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE (justin crowe)
well i know a thing about contrition
because i've got enough to spare
and i'll be granting your permission
because you haven't got a prayer
and i said, hey hallelujah,
i'm gonna come on sing the praise
let the spirit come on through ya
we got innocence for days
well i think i'm gonna burn in hell
everybody burn the house right down
and say hey, what i wanna say
tell me i'm an angel take this to my grave
tell me i'm a bad man, kick me like a stray
tell me i'm an angel, take this to my grave
you play ring around the ambulance
like you never gave a care
so get the choir boys around you
its a compliment, i swear
i said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
i wanna hear you sing the praise
i said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
we've got innocence for days
♠ east jesus nowhere - GREEN DAY
and we will see how godless a nation we have become
raise your hands now to testify
your confession will be crucified
you're a sacrificial suicide
like a dog that's been sodomized
well stand up, all the white boys
sit down, all the black girls
stand up, you're the soldiers
sit down, of the new world
put your faith in a miracle
and its non-demoninational
join the choir we'll be singing
in the church of wishful thinking
bless me lord for i have sinned
its been a lifetime since i last confessed
i threw my crutches in the river of a shadow of doubt
and i'll be dressed up in my sunday best
say a prayer for the family
drop a coin for humanity
aint this uniform so flattering
i never asked you a god damned thing
don't test me
second guess me,
protest me
you will disappear
i wanna know who's allowed to breed
all the dogs who never learned to read
missionary politicians
and the cops of the new religion
a fire burns today of blasphemy and genocide
the sirens of decay will infiltate the inside
♠ the static age - GREEN DAY (tommy dolan)
can you hear the sound of the static noise blasting down the stereo
catered to the class and the paranoid; music to my nervous system
advertising love and religion; murder on the airwaves
slogans on the brink of corruption, visions of blasphemy, war and peace
oh, screaming at you
i can't ee a thing in the video,
i can't hear a sound on the radio
in stereo in the static age
all i wanna know is a god damned thing not what's in the medicine
all i want to do is i want to breathe, batteries are not included
what's the latest way that a man can die, "screaming hallelujah"
sing of the dawn's early light, silence of the rotten, forgotten
oh screaming at you
♠ good riddance (time of your life) - GREEN DAY
another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
time grabs you by the wrists, directs you wear to go
so make the best of this test and don't ask why
its not a question but a lesson learned in time
its something unpredictable but in the end is right
i hope you had the time of you life
so take the photographs and still frames in your mind
hang them on a shelf in good health and good time
tattoos and memories and dead skin on trial
for what its worth it was worth all the while
its something unpredictable but in the end is right
i hope you had the time of your life
