| Immortal . Fabulous Killjoy  Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 157 | Well I was there on the day they sold the cause to the queen And when the lights all went out We watched our lives on the screen - When your life is over you look back and don´t see the good things. Just the bad. I hate the ending myself But It started with an allright scen - Your childhood was good, but you don´t really like the end of your life. ´Cause you did many things wrong. I was the roar of the crowd That gave me heart-ache to sing - It was your family and friends that made you get up every morning and suffer through your life It wa a lie when they smiled And said you wont feel a thing - Everything in a life isn´t good and painless. Even if ppl tell you that everything is allright. It´s not allways true. And as we ran from the cops We laughed so hard it would sting - You can laugh at your misstakes when everything is over. If I´m so wrong How can you listen all night long? - If they don´t belive in what you stand for they don´t have to pretend that they do. Now will it matter after I´m gong Because you never learned a g********d thing - When you´re gone ppl don´t remember what the meaning of your life was. What you tried to learn everyone You´re just a sad song With nothing to say - You don´t care about what they say anymore. About a lifelong Wait for a hospital stay - You gave up and wish you were dead right now And if you think that I´m wrong This never meant nothing to ya - They don´t belive in you, so they aren´t worth to care about I spent my high school carrier Spit on and shoved to agree - You did what everyone told you So I can watch all my heroes Sell a car on tv Bring out the old guillotine We´ll show ´em what we all mean - Let´s show them you have your own will So go Go away - You want everyone that bothers you to get out of your life Just run Run away But where did you run to? - You want your revenge so you call them back And where did you hide? - You can´t find them Go find another way - When you find them you tell them about all the pain they´ve cost you Price you pay - They have to understand And if you think that I´m wrong This never meant nothing to ya At all At all At all At all... -- If your life wasn´t meaningful for anybody else, it was no point with your life. |

| xoxdisenchantedxox Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: - Posts: 1 | i think its about someone look back on their life and being unsatisfied and disappointed and wishing they did more with it. the definition of disenchanted is: to be unsatisfied or disappinted that about sums it up! |
| mcr.my.escape. Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 7 | actully the first time i heard this song my first instinct was it was about the holocaust. then i looked on here and only one person said that. i found that a bit odd. but i still think that its about the holocaust seriously they cant all be about gerard you kno!!!! |

| Gerard's sister Killjoy Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 18 | Uh... I don't understand this: "And as we ran for the cops, we laughed so hard it would sting" *really confused* |
| EATEN ALIVE Thinking Happy Thoughts Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 534 | i agree with so many of you in some parts that the quotin would make my comp fail. and i think this song is totally bout someones life. like the WHOLE life. "And when the lights all went out We watched our lives on the screen I hate the ending myself, But it started with an alright scene" like when you're dying (patient), or when you just see your life flashin by like movie, and you dont like the way it ended. "And as we ran for the cops, we laughed so hard it would sting" you were a kid and you did something bit illegal/wrong, and it was funny to you how ppl got mad about it. "I spent my high school career Spit on and shoved to agree So I can watch all my heroes Sell a car on TV" so while you were young, you were kinda forced to agree with someone or to do somethin. and that those who were supposed to be your heroes, failed you. "Bring out the old guillotine We’ll show them what we all mean" i think this is bout guys showin what they allways wanted to say, what a lotof kids like want to say but never had achange, and now they can crash the stuff ppl around them said or "forced them to believe" or said to them. "It’s just a sad song, with nothing to say About a life long wait for a hospital stay." coming back to Patient, i think. that this is sad song about Patients life. "And if you think that I’m wrong, this never meant nothing to you" if somebody thinks you're wrong, they dont care what you said, and you feel frustrated because what you said was important to you. "Now will it matter, after im gone? Because you never learned a goddamned thing?" if that someone starts to argue with you, you just say "what does it matter, if you didnt listend, didnt learn?" "But where did you run to? Where did you hide? Go find another way Price you pay" you have to pay a price for saying out loud what you want to say/doing what you wanted to do. yeah. that's pretty much all that i think :] but it still might be, like my friend said, that there are no metaphors. but i like to think that there are[[: |
| imeanthis_4ever Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 55 | basically all i get is "You're just a sad song with nothing to say, About a life long wait for a hospital stay" which is saying that the Patient's life was a waste, that he didn't do anything productive and didn't achieve any goals or whatever. i think that this song is about the Patient looking back on his life and not liking what he sees, and pretty much regretting it all and wishing he could do it over. what confuses me is who is talking in this song. is it the Patient or is it a third person speaking? maybe someone who knew the Patient? |
| rubbaduckie Jazz Hands Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 360 | it is kind of like a book, you can get the obvious meaning, what the whole story is about (the patient) then you can get what the story is trying 2 say (one person said live your life 2 the fullest or something) then a personal reason why the author wrote it, an experince they had... (somone mentioned on another bored about burt and gerard...?) possible? does anyone know about that? |
| Jack's broken heart Awake and Unafraid  Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 10398 | This song is one of my favs of the new album. Cause it's so much emotions I feel. It's like...sort of saying that you feel like a screw up. That came out wrong, but I'll try to explain. "when the lights all went out" that line for me, feels like he's like...dead...sort of, or something has ended, like a friendship, or someone near has died(not really in Gerard's life, but in the story of the song) "we watched our lives on the screen" you can call this a flashback. Memorising. "I hate the ending myself, but it started with an alright scene" something bad happened. That's where my suspicions of a friendship ending comes from. Cause it started out good but it ended bad. And I love the chorus "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 nothign to you" It's the emotion. It's a very strong song I would say. And when i look at my post, I see that it makes no sense what so ever! |
| notetoself. Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 11 | LostMyFearOfFalling: i agree with this, thats along the lines of what i was going to say |
| Miketh Way. Salute You in Your Grave  Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 3119 | i think that it could be bout gerard n bert. |
| pirates_booty947 Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 11 | There's only one part in this song that I know about, and I got this information from a friend. Any way, when the song says "When the lights when out, we watched our lives on the screen, I hate the ending myself, but it started with an alright scene." This is referring to what Gerard thought about Life On The Murder Scene. He thought that it was good, but he didn't like the ending because it sounded too much like the band was ending. Well, that's all I know, and remember, I got this information from a friend. |
| FightTheGoodFight Fabulous Killjoy  Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 127 | i think its just gerard's final words on bert mccracken and their realtionship: Well I was there on the day They sold the cause for the queen, And when the lights all went out We watched our lives on the screen. I hate the ending myself, But it started with an alright scene. ~~ he's looking back on their relationship and he thinks it started ok but hates the way it ended and they fell out and the way bert was slagging them off all the time. It was the roar of the crowd That gave me heartache to sing. ~~ he saw how people looked up to bert when they toured with the used and when they were a new band and he wanted to be as famous as bert It was a lie when they smiled And said, "you won't feel a thing" ~~ when people said you'll get over the break-up with bert. he's still sad about it And as we ran from the cops We laughed so hard it would sting ~~ looking back on good times with him Yeah yeah, oh If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong) How can you listen all night long? (night long, night long) ~~ if gerard is such an idiot, why are you still obviously still listening to his music and following what he's doing Now will it matter after I'm gone? Because you never learn a goddamned thing. ~~ you didn't learn to love and appreciate me/our friendship so it doesn't matter that i'm not there You're just a sad song with nothing to say ~~ a reference to the 'emo/crybaby' genre that gerard hates and that bert isn't saving people's lives like he is. he's just pitying himself. About a life long wait for a hospital stay And if you think that I'm wrong, This never meant nothing to you ~~ if you still think i'm wrong, my music and what i do(sacing people's lives) means nothing to you. I spent my high school career Spit on and shoved to agree So I can watch all my heroes Sell a car on tv Bring out the old guillotine We'll show 'em what we all mean. ~~ not really relevant, but he was pushed around and had his hopes crushed in high school to just become nothing (he would have been if he wasn't in the band) Yeah yeah, oh If I'm so wrong (so wrong, so wrong) How can you listen all night long? (night long, night long) Now will it matter long after I'm gone? Because you never learn a goddamned 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 So go, go away, just go, run away. ~~ just leave me alone and stop spreading stuff about me But where did you run to? And where did you hide? Go find another way, price you pay ~~ what are you going to do now that you're labeled as being a bad person. but its your fault for doing it. Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah 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, come on < that was my take on it anyway. tell me what you think lolza> |
| anGeL_of_mCr Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2 | I think that in this song he talks about the days that they were young and at school and about how he had it bad at school because he wasn't cosiderd to be "cool" |
| anGeL_of_mCr Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2 | anGeL_of_mCr:I also think that this song talks about how someone is looking back on thier life and they feel dissapointed and unsatisfied with what happened |
| mikeymakesmegommm Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 10 | what does it mean when gerard says, "it was a lie when they smiled and said you won't feel a thing" ???? |
| HarlequinFirith Always Born a Crime  Age: 40 Gender: Female Posts: 5146 | mikeymakesmegommm: Maybe something bout Gee and needles!!!  okay... lame.... But me thinks that is something like that: ppl lie to you telling everything's gonna be alright, it won't hurt and try to paint everything in a shiny pink which doesn't exist cause life is not perfect: life hurts, life isn't always alright... and when you come to realize that it's pretty disappointing... or "disenchanting". Maybe the song is about how he comes to realize all the perfection he once saw, or was showed to him, wasn't at all like that... among other things... Or maybe is just the memory of some nurse giving Gee a vaccine or something! lameness has taken over me..... |
| mercy in the sky. Shotgun Sinner  Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 7503 | [And when the lights all went out, we watched our lives on the screen. I hate the ending myself... but it started with an alright scene.] So, the lights went out (death came) and he gets flashbacks of his life. And he hates that his life is ending from Cancer (I hate the ending myself) and that it is a terrible way to die. But he's saying life started off fine (It started with an alright scene). |
