Bleeding on the Floor Age: 30 Gender: Male Posts: 1797	July 26th, 2007 at 08:48am I wrote an essay type thing on mcr last year and the other day me and my frend were having a disussion about this song only we thought it was 'Our Ldy of Sorrows' until I went on Wikipedia and found out I got it wrong and me and my fried went through a long conversation about the wrong song.
my.gerard.romance... Killjoy Age: 29 Gender: - Posts: 24	August 5th, 2007 at 08:13am If you read the meaning of this song..it obviously says that it's about Gerard witnessing the 9/11 accident while he was doing this cartoon thing.. So him and Matt ( i think matt was the ex-drummer) worte about it.
Demolition Lover. Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 41	August 12th, 2007 at 05:52am 9/11 everyone should know this.
my_chem_xoxo Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 15	August 23rd, 2007 at 08:34pm this song was writen by gerard way as kinda a way to get over him witnessing 9/11. and i agree with a freaking macgregor when she says it speaks about other atrocities like the holocaust.
Butters Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2042	September 11th, 2007 at 09:55am Happy anniversary Skylines and Turnstiles... This day is so sad,I remember the day so well,even though I was only little, I didn't really understand what was going on. I just saw smoking bulidings on the TV and asked my mom what was going on.
MaggieIero Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2	September 16th, 2007 at 03:30pm To song is just about Gerard's and Matt's (The old baterist of the band) about the 11th os September of 2001
lil-miss-apocalypse Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 18	September 20th, 2007 at 09:08pm i think that it is also meant to inspire people to carry on through a crisis and to never give up or give in. That no matter if your life is falling down around you, you should carry on living. well thats what i think =P

FightTheGoodFight Fabulous Killjoy Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 127	October 4th, 2007 at 10:11pm does anyone else think that "steel corpses stretch out towards and ending sun, scorched and black" is some of the best imagery ever used in the history of ...ever! the first time i heard this, i looked up the lyrics and i was just gobsmacked over that line, i think i ended up crying about it although i was only eight when 9/11 happened and i live in england and didn't know anyone there it still gets the reality of it through to me on this song
scizophomiya Killjoy Age: - Gender: - Posts: 2	November 20th, 2007 at 11:30am Thanks for explaining... I think all these time I missunderstood the meaning, First, I think its just someone who lost and desperate and questioning his faith. after I understand the meaning, i dont know what will i feel when I heard again tis song...
mikeyhasmyheart Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 5	November 26th, 2007 at 07:03pm I needed a way to get over it so i wrote a song
jems Killjoy Age: 21 Gender: Female Posts: 4	November 29th, 2007 at 06:46pm I find it amazing how Gerard was ACTUALLY there in New York witnessing the Towers collapse. Must have been so inspirational.

Gerard felt that he needs to get over it in the way. He was so close to the crash. It must have been painful to know that you live so close to were something like that happend and to know it could happen to you. Yeah, well.........I was a young kid at the time. I guess I was being a dumb little kid. This previous comment makes me think of how I felt about 911 when it first happened. When I heard about it, I thought "Coool! I wish I was there to see that!"
