Worship thy Gerard12 Killjoy Age: 28 Gender: Female Posts: 7 | I think this song is about war and how men ( including the narrator ) were drafted into the war and the narrator killed people , which is a sin, so he thinks his mother could never forgive him ( hense "shit I've done with this fuck of a gun ) it's also about him not being a good son and saying things like " Mama we all go to hell " and making her cry. Don't judge me on this I'm only making a guess |

goffman Killjoy Age: 29 Gender: Male Posts: 16 | ive read somewhere that mother war is the patients mum, and he and his mum are bitching at each other for not being perfect. either that or mother war is mad she has to outlive her son, and he's being kinda spiteful and saying that shes gotta die too. (the patient prefers his dad to his mum) |
Darkromance Banned Age: - Gender: - Posts: 322 | I think it's about a son who is writing a letter to his mother to kinda make thingss better and to say that if she gave him a little more affection, he wouldn't have been so bad. |
haleyxxfosho Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 9 | I'm sure im wrong.. But i though it was a thankyou for gerard and mikeys mom. For supported them. From when he says "you made us all so famous" but i doubt thats right. because he's talking about everyone going to hell, and everyone full of lies, us meant for the flies. and all that. but whatever. |
my.gerard.romance... Killjoy Age: 29 Gender: - Posts: 24 | I think it's about the war (well mother what the war did to my legs and to my tounge) |
Way1203 Fabulous Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 125 | yeah, i thought it was a war song and the part "mama what the war did to my legs and to my tongue you should've raised a baby girl i should've been a better son" Talking about how since he's in the war now and his mom doesn't want him to be she should just accept it cause she should've had a girl if she didnt' want him to be in the army or whatever. Right? |
Demolition Lover. Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 41 | From what i read on here,i agree with them. It is about war and the man writing to his mother,telling her that their death will come soon to them. |
mcr_01_fan Killjoy Age: 35 Gender: Male Posts: 7 | I read somewhere that this song is about a character the Patient meets whilst journeying with the black parade, that character being mother war (the woman with the gas mask and mesed up hair in the welcome to the black parade video) and that it's about how her sons went off to war, just like their father did. They wrote letters home to her because they knew they were gonna die, and when she replied she wanted nothing to do with them, because they left here like that. And then at the end of the song, the soldiers are killed and battle, hence why you can hear mother war crying =] |

Justanotherstar Salute You in Your Grave Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 2810 | i think its about war and not being perfect |
Darkromance Banned Age: - Gender: - Posts: 322 | Gunshots? I thought they were some extra noise that accidently got onto the cd !!!! |
noname9 Killjoy Age: - Gender: - Posts: 1 | I think its about world war 1 because of the old italian 1910-1920's feel. He's writing about the things hes seen and done in war, how tramatizing(not sure if i spelled that right) it has been to him, and how he'll never really be able to look at the world the same way again. Thats my interpretation. |
my_chem_xoxo Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 15 | i believe this song is about how nobady can be perfect no matter how hard you try. and also that if you are having a hard time in your life remember there are people with you and in worst positions like the war going on in iraq people are diying and going to the hospital wile there family is worried about them. ("well mother look what the war did to my legs and to my tounge you should have raised a baby girl i should have been a better son if you can coudle the infection they can amputate at once" |
Tiffany xoxo Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 8 | This song is about war and it makes the most sense to say it is about a mother and her son who is away in a war. Maybe the mother is so worried that she wishes her son would've done something different,"I should have been a bettter son." or maybe the son wants to prove that what he has done in the war has really changed him. I love this song and I see it as a follow-up to The Ghost Of You, MAMA, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE! |
We'llCarryOn Banned Age: 27 Gender: Male Posts: 443 | i think its about the patient talking to his mother and he's explaining to her how he's not perfect and that he could've been a better son and that he should have been a better person |
alexp Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Male Posts: 2 | awww man its about war "mother what the war did to my legs and to my tongue" dus that not give it away? |
Myalyas Killjoy Age: - Gender: - Posts: 13 | gnat1ns: Well done, gnat1ns! I had wondered how many of you got it?! Actually, if you could imagine, this "patient" (if we must keep calling him that) has been contemplating "coming out" but fears the reaction/s he may receive, especially from "Mama". To me, the most interesting twist of words used is in the line, "The **** that I've done with this **** of a gun..." because of a saying in the Army: "This is my weapon. This is my gun. This is for fighting. This is for fun." |
Pixie-Gates Awake and Unafraid Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 13231 | I believe this song is a typically unique, MCR-style take on the penchant anti-war song. Everyone has one. This is theirs. |
