Stay out of the light
Or the photographs that I gave you
You can say a prayer if you need to
Or just get in line and I'll grieve you
Can I meet you, alone
Another night and I'll see you
Another night and I'll be you
Some other way to continue
To hide my face
Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty, babe
The kind of dirty
Where the water never cleans off the clothes
I keep a book of the names and those
Only go so far to bury them
So deep and down we go
Touched by angels though, I fall out of grace
I did it all so maybe I'd live this everyday
Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty, babe
It ain't the money
And it sure as hell ain't just for the fame
It's for the bodies I claim and those
Only go so far to bury them
So deep and down we go
Down
And down we go
And down we go
And down we go
And we all fall down
I try
I try
And we'll all dance alone to the tune of your death
We'll love again, we'll laugh again
And it's better off this way
And never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now
Well never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now
I tried, one more night, one more night
Well I'm laughing', crying', laughing'
I tried, well I tried, well I tried
Cause I tried, but I lied
I tried, I tried, I tried
And we'll love again and we'll laugh again
We'll CRY again and we'll dance again
And it's better off this way
So much better off this way
I can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed
Never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now
Or the photographs that I gave you
You can say a prayer if you need to
Or just get in line and I'll grieve you
Can I meet you, alone
Another night and I'll see you
Another night and I'll be you
Some other way to continue
To hide my face
Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty, babe
The kind of dirty
Where the water never cleans off the clothes
I keep a book of the names and those
Only go so far to bury them
So deep and down we go
Touched by angels though, I fall out of grace
I did it all so maybe I'd live this everyday
Another knife in my hands
A stain that never comes off the sheets
Clean me off
I'm so dirty, babe
It ain't the money
And it sure as hell ain't just for the fame
It's for the bodies I claim and those
Only go so far to bury them
So deep and down we go
Down
And down we go
And down we go
And down we go
And we all fall down
I try
I try
And we'll all dance alone to the tune of your death
We'll love again, we'll laugh again
And it's better off this way
And never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now
Well never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now
I tried, one more night, one more night
Well I'm laughing', crying', laughing'
I tried, well I tried, well I tried
Cause I tried, but I lied
I tried, I tried, I tried
And we'll love again and we'll laugh again
We'll CRY again and we'll dance again
And it's better off this way
So much better off this way
I can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed
Never again, and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
And we're all dead now

Title I Never Told You What I Do For A Living
Artist My Chemical Romance
“I never told you what I do for a living” (Nunca te conté a qué me dedico) es la decimotercera y última canción del disco Three cheers for sweet revenge, de la banda My Chemical Romance.
Esta canción termina la historia conceptual de este disco y del disco anterior, titulado I brought you my bullets, you brought me your love. La canción comienza explicando que los dos amantes demolidos huyen y matan a sus enemigos (another knife in my hand... and only go so far till you bury them). Al final de la canción dan a entender que los amantes han muerto asesinados (well never again and never again, they gave us two shoots in the back of the head and we are all, dead now...) En español: y nunca más, y nunca más nos dieron dos tiros en la nuca y aquí estamos los dos, ahora muertos...
Otra explicación es que la canción trata sobre un hombre que es asesino y le canta a su amada sobre su vida, que se siente sucio y que él no la merece, aunque este otro significado podría encajar también en la historia anterior.
Otra versión de esta canción fue publicada el 2006 en el álbum en vivo Life on the murder scene. Esta es una versión demo de estudio, en que se cambia parte de la letra pero se mantiene la estructura general de la canción. Esta versión se grabó en diciembre de 2003.
