Demolition Lovers

"Demolition Lovers" is a song by the American rock band My Chemical Romance from their debut studio album, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, released on July 23, 2002, by Eyeball Records. It is the album's eleventh and final track, and was written by four of the band members and produced by Geoff Rickly.

It is a six-minute-long punk rock and emo ballad with elements of screamo that goes through multiple movements. It starts off slow, with a simple guitar and backing drums, building up gradually and ultimately resulting in an abrupt stop that leads into the bridge. The second half of the song features a guitar solo and a final chorus, which is followed by another abrupt ending that concludes the track. Lyrically, it tells the story of two lovers who go on a crime spree and ultimately meet their demise in a desert.

The song was met with positive responses from critics, who highlighted its composition and storytelling. Multiple critics considered it one of the best songs from Bullets, while others considered it one of the band's best songs overall. It has also been noted as a fan favorite. The band played it in their earliest live shows prior to 2004, and later brought it back during their Reunion Tour. The story of "Demolition Lovers" was continued with the band's next album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge (2004).
