My Chemical Romance have released their first new music since 2014 with the song "The Foundations of Decay."

The track is a reflective song, starting with piano and an electronic backing before starting to pick up as Gerard Way's intensity matches the band upon reaching the song's chorus.

Bringing vintage My Chem sounds to 2022, the song should receive a warm welcome from old-school fans. The band's last release was 2014's "Fake Your Death." You can hear the new six-minute track below.

My Chemical Romance "The Foundations of Decay" Lyrics

[Verse 1]
See the man who stands upon the hill
He dreams of all the battles won
But fate had left its scars upon his face
With all the damage they had done

[Pre-Chorus]
And so time, with age
He turns the page
Let the flesh
Submit itself to gravity

[Chorus]
Let our bodies lay while our hearts we'll save
Let our blood invade if I die in vain
Now, if your convictions were a passing faith
May your ashes feed the river in the morning rays
And as the vermin crawls
We lay in the foundations of decay

[Verse 2]
He was there, the day the towers fell
And so he wandered down the road
And we would all build towers of our own
Only to watch the rooms corrode

[Pre-Chorus]
But it's much too late
You're in the race
So we'll press
And press 'til you can't take it anymore

[Chorus]
Let our bodies lay while our hearts we'll save
Let our blood invade if I die in vain
And if, by his own hand, his spirit flies
Take his body as a relic to be canonized, now
And so he gets to die a saint
But she will always be the whore

[Breakdown]
(Let's flip out!)
Against faith (Antihero)
Against all life (As if it must be pure)
Against change (Wander through the ruins)
We are free (The guiltiness is yours)

[Bridge]
You must fix your heart
And you must build an altar where it rests
When the storm decays and the sky it rains
Let it flood, let it flood, let it wash away
And as we stumble through your last crusade
When you welcome your extinction in the morning rays
And as the swarming calls, we lay in the foundations

[Outro]
Yes, it comforts me much more
Yes, it comforts me much more
To lay in the foundations of decay
Get up, coward!
