Teenagers

This song is like a tribute or something to teenagers. i was surprised when i heard this song on the album.

i think that this song is the patient thinking back about being a rebelious teenager and how he was an outcast and adults looked down at him

i thought i read at some point that this song was somewhat in refrence to the columbine shootings...or inspired by that or something along those lines.

Well Its sort of obviouse teenagers will do anything to anyone and not care.Its about the druggs that they do and the people they kill gerard is trying to keep the kids who are turning into teens away from druggs and murdering.

1. i agree about the gun violence
2.i can relate to the not fitting in aspects
3.all the cliques of people who think they are so cool(not)
4.being cool is overatted...be a loser!

alot of teenagers really dont care
1-drugs
2-sex
3-peer pressure that ends in violence and death

I never thought about the gun violence thing, but that makes a lot of sense.

teenagers is about teenagers huh that was hard

I don't know the meaning of this song but I like the melodies of this song....
And the melodies remind me like my music when I was a child...
Look so glowing...!!!! *Hmm,Just my opinion*

yeah..and the line "they say all teenagers scare the living shit outta me"..i guess that's an expression people gave when they look at teenagers, judging them without knowing anything about them..

apparently it about teenagers scaring the living shit out of people =0P soo..... yea, i guess it's about teens who kill each other because they're like, murderers or something like that.......

i heard that the song insparation came from when Gerard was going onto the subway but some kids scared him off LOL

well im too lazy to read the whole thing but i heard that Gerard was at a train or bus stop or something and a highschool got out early and they "scare the shit out of " him...anyways i went back to look at the other responses and im most likely wrong..

gerard wrote that song when he was thinking about what it was like to be a teen. hes saying "maybe they'll leave u alone...but not me" hes saying that he wont leave people alone either. like agreeing with the teens. hes not scared of them he loves them. i heard him explain it.

Whoeva was the nub (no offence) that sed that the song is called teenagers about teenagers, obviously doesnt wanna think 2 hard...
dead_cry99 <<--- knows his shiz go back a few pages and read his stuff.

teenagers is about a teen whos
sick of being bullied around by cliques
so he takes matters into his own hands

i think that the song teenagers is about kids that get picked on at school and they get picked o so much that eventually they snap and bring a gun to school and shoot the people that pick on them and all the violence that goes on between teenagers!

... Man. You all have better answers than me. I first thought it was 'bout adults outlooks on teens and how we've changed, how adults are always after us and how we abuse privilages and drugs... but I like your ideas better. ^^;

but then again, thats just me. I'm kinda cracked up, so it's probably about teen violence er somethin'... xD

This doesnt really have anything to with the meaning but this song is so much fun and its one of those songs that you just sing at the top of your lungs and it doesnt matter if your voice is bad or not (I think thats because the beat is so cool)

But also as mentioned many times before it is about violence particularly gun violence amoung teens. This is a serious issue but I dont think the song should be taken so seriously. It is after all fiction its one of those songs that gets you fired up because sometimes (and we all do it) we wish could have that ultimate revenge on the people that hurt us. Plus this song can be used as a metaphor for standing up for yourself during the years you face the most ridecule, your teen years
