It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish

Lights Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2205 | "for what you did to me" "I'm taking back the life you stole" "The damage you've inflicted" |
AVENGE ME. Joining The Black Parade Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 197 | I think this song has two meanings the first is just about the guy killing the person or people that killed him and his lover (because he has to kill evil people so he and his dead lover can be together) and he is telling them "this whole you put me in wasnt deep enough" because im sure that when the person or people shot him they never thought they would see him again after that. the second is kind of like a meaning behind a meaning. Like the first meaning symbolizes the second meaning, a person who is picked on by people so much that he or she resorts to hurting themself and just when the "bullies" think they have caused the person a lot of harm and hurt that person turns around and seeks their revenge "For what you did to me, Ill do to you" |
CoryisnotokIpromise Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 13 | I think its obviously about betrayal and revenge. Someone he loves wronged him and he's getting back at them. This song can sometimes be hard to understand because in some parts it seems angry ("For what you did to me, And what I'll do to you,"//"I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me.I'm taking back the life you stole"//"You're running out of places to hide from me" and in other places it seems he is talking about the person being very close to him.("When you go Just know that I will remember you I lost my fear of falling I will be with you I will be with you" I think its about someone you trust doing something hurtful to you. |
Pandora's Box Motor Baby Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 767 | i thin kit has two meanings not to self harm as the name says it not a fashion statment its a deathwish and the other is obviously about revenge "for what you did to me and for what ill do to you " and " i lost my fear of falling i will be with you" is proberbly about like falling out of love and falling back into it again |
heartache to sing Bleeding on the Floor Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 1627 | ^ Yeah I agree with you. I think a lot of it references self-harm, the title, the razor to the rosary part, the damage you've inflicted part. I also think it's about revenge. The last line I think could be about falling in love or maybe even suicide, to be with the one you love that has died. |

Mrs Rochester Bleeding on the Floor Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1669 | Everytime I hear that song it reminds me of self harm. "From the razor to the rosary"..."The damage you've inflicted, temporary wounds". All that kind of stuff. I suppose this song is what you make of it, with lots of songs on Three Cheers it's very much open to interpretation. I agree with the idea betrayal too..."I'm taking back the life you stole" and "This hole you put me in wasn't deep enough"..Kinda a life for a life kind of thing. |
Say Goodbye! Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Male Posts: 73 | I think its a follow up of their first album. In the first album, pretty much all the songs sing about gerard wanting to kill his beloved, but on the cover of the album it says something like "Im sorry I write all those songs about killing you, I hope the last one can make up for the others", this song is Demolition Lovers(one of my favorite) So I think that basicaly, this girl doesnt want to forgive him and this song is about him wanting to kill her, to have revenge on her. |
patrick wolf Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2326 | i really love this song. i was kinda confused about wat it was about, until i read wat other pple said. it makes a bit more sense now. |
v-VAMPIRES-v Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 1 | I absolutely HATE it when skanks go around saying "I love Gerard Way! He's so hot!" WTF is with that!! I mena like, why can't they understand that he is a fucking beautiful person inside and out!! Not just OUT!! |
Snape-a-doodle. Salute You in Your Grave Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 3062 | v-VAMPIRES-v:I think this song means getting revenge on those who have wronged you, for example "For what you did to me, I'll do to you" So if you go onto youtube and type in Helena-Sims 2 a perfectly good video will come up and will show part of the song, Ive got no clue what the titles about though....*giggle* anway, I agree with you v-VAMPIRES-v skanks like that have no idea what there albums are about x x x |
aliss practice. Shotgun Sinner Age: 102 Gender: - Posts: 8198 | I think this is about a friend that someone had, and that friend, or maybe even lover, did something wrong, i.e cheating, killing etc . . . and Gerard feels like they ought to 'punished for their sins', but he still loves them too much to let hurt them, whether physical or worded. And I am really angry they didn't play this on the 30th when I was there, would have been fucking fantastic. Shame Frank was ill though [/rant] |
imeanthis_4ever Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 55 | i think that in relation to the record's concept about the deal with the devil, i think the devil is trying to convince the guy to take the deal so he shows him what happened to his lover after he died & he sees that she married the guy who shot him, but she's unhappy [cemetery drive: "the dress your husband hates"] & probably was forced to marry him [blackmail, etc]. so the guy feels betrayed, thinking that she was working with his murderer the whole time & not knowing that she was forced into the marriage, ["Hip hip hooray for me, you talk to me, but would you kill me in my sleep?"] and he wants revenge [I will avenge my ghost with every breath i take,/I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me,/I'm taking back the life you stole." but eventually he just wants to take her back because he still loves her [When you go,/Just know that I will remember you./If living was the hardest part,/We'll then one day, be together] yeah, i'm probably looking to much into it, but that's what i got. |
blazing_six-guns Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 49 | imeanthis_4ever: twisted, i would have never thought of that!!!! : ] haha but now that someone has said that it sounds correct, this song confuses me |
imeanthis_4ever Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 55 | blazing_six-guns: haha yeah i have a weird & twisted mind. i guess i've been listening to it too many times.. |
Solitary Style. Thinking Happy Thoughts Age: 39 Gender: Female Posts: 574 | imeanthis_4ever, I really think you're on to something. Your ideas actually explain how the song is angry and vengeful one moment, and tender and loving the next. Is there any other evidence to support it, though? Just out of curiosity... |
xo_cemetery_drive_xo Killjoy Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 12 | I think that the title means that he is not self harming because its cool, hes doing it because he feels he needs to. |
imeanthis_4ever Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 55 | Solitary Style: exactly what i was thinking! i don't have any direct evidence, but you can see my response on Hang 'Em High. |
mcr_4ever Joining The Black Parade Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 227 | hmmm.. i think its about how u shouldn't kill urself for the benefit of other |
