Some people watch; some people pray,
But even lights can fade away.
Some people hope; some people pay,
But why'd we have to stay?
In this verse, gerard is saying that why did My chemical romance have to stay? They knew everyone didn't want them to go, but the band wanted it to end, and soon, he's basically saying, we know you guys want us to stay, but we can't
'Cause even here; we're scared to bruise,
Or any misery you choose.
You like to watch; we like to use,
And we were born to lose.
And in this verse, he's saying he doesn't want you guys to feel bad... he only wants to make you feel better, "We were born to lose" being that at the start he thought the band wouldn't get much attention, although they did, again with gerard being metaphoric again.
I choose defeat. I walk away,
And leave this place, the same today (I did this because It suits the song more, even though it might be official, i feel like this version is better)
Some like to sleep; we like to play.
Just look at all that pain.
He's saying he gives up, he wants the band to end, he doesn't mind the pain he's causing, even though he may be sad about it, he feels its best, he's also saying, you guys should keep MCR in your heart forever, even though they're not there, leaving the same impression they had before
You want the heart and to be saved,
But even good guys still get paid.
So watch my back and keep the blade;
I think it got you laid.
I don't know what the first to lines mean, but the second to I assume they mean: Keep defending us if someone insults us, you can do it, and we know this changed your lifes a lot... and even got some of you closer then before as a fandom, the getting laid part not being taken literally
So fake your death or eat your blame,
And leave the lights on when you stay.
Take off your clothes and dream that fake.
Come on and feel that shame.
He's saying he better let you guys know he's officially ending this with a grand finale and not some sudden brake up like other bands do, he's saying as before to leave it how it is but keep MCR in your heart, and as most of your memories, he's also saying imagine what it would be like if we never gave you this song, or just suddenly broke up, feeling a lot of shame in that, we didn't do that.
Just look at all that pain.
Just look at all that pain.
Just gimme all that pain.
Just gimme all that pain.
Just gimme all that pain.
He's saying that he should accept the fact you guys hate it, but still go through with it, showing him saying: "I know you guys hate it, but we still want to go through this, no matter what"

I'll be honest, what you said before is what it sounds like, but the song is called
'Fake Your Death', so that may be hinting a possible reunion in the future. One can only hope....

I think the first two lines of that mean that like, he know's their music was inspirational to a lot of people and saved lives, including his, but because of that persona for the band, that story of how the band was started, it kind of made them famous and is how they got their money as a band.

@XenioKnightsB I am sure there was plenty of friction going on within the band, and even if written before the break up it may have been reflective of where the band was at mentality (even if they hadn't seriously considered it yet).

The song was written before the band broke up and before they intended on breaking up.
