Switchblade Saint Salute You in Your Grave Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 2601 | when i was brokenhearted in love, i felt for this song; now i'm in advertising and i really feel for it still - perhaps more than ever. what is it like, after all, for a young bright-eyed person to see his/her idol "sell a car on TV". more than just selling out, which i think is also true, maybe its abt being disappointed & let down by figures whom u look up to. "I was there on the day they sold the cause for the queen I hate the ending myself, but it started with an alright scene" it's like comparing the beginning of ur life & where u're at rigth now. we started idealistic & believing evrything on the silver screen or the authority books were right; then we're let down by the things that r supposed to be protecting us. Well, u're free to correct me if u think i'm wrong |

rise_again_tomarrow Joining The Black Parade Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 230 | Well, i'm not very deep and don't like thinking, but here is what I came up with in context with the cd storyline: 1)This song is about " The Paient" who thinks he will die "Now will it matter after i'm gone?" "We watched our lives on the screen, I hate the ending myself" Also, The first part does sort of sound like reminising, do you not agree? 2)and is bidding farewell to a loved one, "Go, Just go!" 3) but at the same time is frusterated that that person won't listen. "And If you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nuthin to ya" etc 4)And he knows the person knows that he is right "If i'm so wrong, how can you listen all night long" |
rise_again_tomarrow Joining The Black Parade Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 230 | Here is my oppinion with the context of reality: 1)This song is about someone who is either affraid he/she will die or is leaving a loved one for some undefined reason. "Now will it matter after i'm gone?" "We watched our lives on the screen, I hate the ending myself" Also, The first part does sort of sound like reminising on either life, or love, do you not agree? 2)and is bidding farewell to the loved one, "Go, Just go!" 3) but at the same time is frusterated that that person won't listen to what he's trying to tell them "And If you think that i'm wrong, this never meant nuthin to ya" etc 4)And he knows the person knows that he is right "If i'm so wrong, how can you listen all night long" |

MyChemicalConspiracy Killjoy Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 15 | "If I'm so wrong, how can you listen all night long," Seems to me like someone has been scolding his morals and saying he's a bad person, yet they cannot resist his music. Dunno, just a theorie (sp) |
Switchblade Saint Salute You in Your Grave Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 2601 | Actually at one time when i was in love with someone, and he kept walking by and i never got the courage to say hi, i kept hearing these lines in my head: it's just a sad song with nothing to say.... and it was the roar of the crowd that gave me heartache to sing bcoz i was reminded of how, when faced with an audience i'd actually be quite bold and do stuff i wouldnt be motivated to when alone. & maybe, if enough ppl dared me, i'd actually go up to him and say "i love you." it wouldnt matter if he took it as a joke, i just wanted to say it. |
Switchblade Saint Salute You in Your Grave Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 2601 | Hvg said that, disenchanted is evidently anything but a simple love song. it has so many layers to it and we still haven't mined its full potential...! |
The Butcher Really Not Okay Age: 29 Gender: - Posts: 654 | I think it has something to do with Eliza. But I don't really know. |
bethanie Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 1 | i believe if you pay action to these lyrics it explains what the song it about.... its for the fans....fans that clam to stand behind the band no matter what...but if they date someone the fans don't like or even if they do something the fans don't like...they turn ageist them and say that they are wrong for it and get upset If im so wrong How can you listen to it all night long? Now he wants to know if he like dies tomorrow or if the band ended will what they said and has done matter to us Now will it matter, after I’m gone Because you never learned a goddamned thing I might be wrong but thats what i got |
earth2themorgue Bleeding on the Floor Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1475 | i think its about Gerard feeling like its the end of the band. I hate the ending myself, But it started with an alright scene. in the beginning, the band started out as a great idea and it became successful but the ending (during the time in the paramour mansion) isnt a good way to end things. It was the roar of the crowd That gave me heartache to sing. so they always said that the band will end when they run out of things to say, right? well Gerard feels like he doesnt have it in him anymore and hearing the crowd (or fans) cheering for him makes him feel bad because he feels like his heart isnt in it anymore. If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong) How can you listen all night long? (night long, night long) Now will it matter after I'm gone? Because you never learn a goddamned thing. if he doesnt have anything relevent left to say, then why are fans still listening to him? and at the end of it all, we wouldnt have learnt anything. You're just a sad song with nothing to say About a life long wait for a hospital stay And if you think that I'm wrong, This never meant nothing to ya this verse is him telling himself he has nothing more to say and all hes left with is a sad song and if he thinks thats wrong then this band never meant anything to him in the first place. So go, go away, just go, run away. But where did you run to? And where did you hide? Go find another way, price you pay yeah i think this one is pretty self explanatory. anyway thats my interpretation of this song. and i think Famous Last Words was put on the album right after Disenchanted because after feeling like this, FLW is more optimistic and full of hope. |

Veeolin Jazz Hands Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 315 | I think this song is like Vampires with the metaphor stripped away. People live their lives in a daze, the undead, and take too much for granted. It's almost MCR basically saying, "You're listening to us, but are you actually getting the point here?" "If I'm so wrong, how can you listen all night long? And will it matter after I'm gone? Because you never learned a goddamn thing. You're just a sad song with nothing to say." About a life long wait for a hospital stay. And if you think that I'm wrong, This never meant nothing to you." Do you get how I see that? =/ |
Vlud Fabulous Killjoy Age: - Gender: Male Posts: 115 | ya know, i guess the reason of this song is like..."remember the good times back then", and that's why i like this song so much because i know it's gonna bump into my head in a few years from now while i'm looking through my middle and high school scrap books |
Vlud Fabulous Killjoy Age: - Gender: Male Posts: 115 | Man's laughter?:OMG i love That 70's show...both your photo and your signatu are mad ass funny...can i add |
Stifled Endings Killjoy Age: 35 Gender: Male Posts: 66 | this song always makes me cry to me it represents the feelings the kid/man/guy has about the inevitability of death and that once you realize this the feelings you once had of suicide dissapear because your shown the "gullitine" (i forget the spelling) |
blue.and.yellow. Fabulous Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 173 | I was just thinking it was about how someone (maybe the patient) wasted his life, and he's already at the end. He should've made a difference and loved other people while he could. He's kind of tormenting himself all night ("if I'm so wrong, how can you listen all night long?" ) about what he's going to do since he only has so much time before he dies. "I hate the ending myself, but it started with an all right scene" He liked how his life started out, like how everyone loved him and he was a good person. Then maybe he got into bad stuff like drugs, and that's what has brought him to his end. Now he wishes he hadn't done it. That's just my theory and sorry if someone already said this, I didn't see. *bows* |
Patrick Martin Stump Motor Baby Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 898 | Gerard W: Oooh, ZING! Personally, I think Disenchanted is about the Patient looking back on his life. But I'm not entirely sure. |
pushups in drag. Killjoy Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 35 | well, i think its quite obvious this song is a reflection of 'the persons' life. i sometimes do think quite alot is about gerard, i mean i dont know loads, but; music was his 'secret passion', no? i think that the line "it was the roar of the crowd that gave me heartache to sing" is how he always wanted to BE SOMETHING . he's said it himslef, right? and so he turned to music. "i spent my high school career spit on and shoved to agree" we all know that he had a taough life when he was younger, that line just really really makes me think its about himself. "was a lie when they smiled And said, 'you won't feel a thing' " well you never know what shit's gonna be thrown at you, and maybe he feels upset that life is so much harder than everyone makes it out to be when you're younger? what with depression and bullies and stuff.. idk though. |
