Gerard Way's Confession ' I'm Alone Right Now '

GERARD WAY REVEALS THE AGONISING BREAK-UP THAT SHAPED 'THE BLACK PARADE'

"This is not something I've ever told anyone else. I had been in a long-term relationship and it fell apart during the making of "The Black Parade". I'm alone right now, for the fist time in 10 years. That's not something people know about me. It's really hard. I've had girlfriends since I was 17 or 18. Now I'm 29.
"It wasn't something that anybody did. It was a six year relationship that ended. It was practically marriage. It was with someone who knew me before the band. Halfway through recording - literally just when I had finished tracking the vocal parts and chorus line to 'Famous Last Words' - I realised that line ('I am not afraid to walk this world alone') was the truth. I broke up with her a week later. I hay to fly back and talk to her, move my stuff out. It was brutal.
"But I've enjoying being free and not having to make phone calls. It's a good feeling at first - but then you check into a hotel room and realise there's no one who misses you like a girlfriend misses you. I'll sit there and stare at the wall. When we were on our last European run I would just go out at night and walk around alone, thinking. 'Well, this is interesting...'."
