Pencey Prep
Pencey Prep was an American rock band from Belleville, New Jersey, which included Frank Iero prior to his joining My Chemical Romance.
Background
Several of the Pencey Prep members came from local punk bands, Frank Iero from Sector 12 and Neil Sabatino from Stick Figure Suicide. While a student at Rutgers University, Iero was guitarist and lead vocalist for Prencey Prep. Between 2000 and 2001, Pencey Prep signed with Eyeball Records. Like their label-mates Thursday, Pencey Prep was considered part of New Jersey's growing post-hardcore and punk scene. They performed across the United States alongside Atom & His Package and Nada Surf. Pencey Prep released their only album to date Heartbreak in Stereo in 2002; it was later re-released under Eyeball Records in 2004. Low attendance during a three-week tour in the midwest and fighting within the band led to the bands demise, and by May 2002 the members of Pencey Prep parted ways.
According to the band's Myspace page, the name is taken from the book The Catcher In The Rye; Pencey Prep was the name of the school that the main character Holden got expelled from.

by: Pencey PrepI wear myself too thin,
Can't help myself this time.
I'm on the outside looking in,
Can't see myself this time.
Don't wanna go, don't wanna go, don't wanna drive back home.
There's nothing there for me.
It's 1am, it's 2am, it's 4 in the morning.
Did I think she'd be here?
Did I fool myself again?
I think I did.
I think I fooled myself again.
Again, again, again.
I fooled myself again.
If I spend just one,
Just one more night,
Just one more night,
Being mediocre then,
Just one more night,
Just one more night,
Well, I'll scream atop my lungs,
Just one more night,
Just one more night,
Being mediocre then,
Just one more night,
Just one more night,
Well, I'll scream atop my lungs, but it falls on deaf ears.

I scream out loud,
but no one hears a sound.
I take my life with lack of sleep.
I believe the things I feel,
The things I see are fooling only...
