Personal Narrative: My Chemical Romance

I’m pretty much angry every day and it’s pretty much always for the same reason: My Chemical Romance. I first listened to MCR when I was 11 or 12. I heard a song called Cancer while creating a playlist on a website called 8tracks. My friend told me to put the song on the playlist so I did. It was a playlist inspired by The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.
