to most people im this (emo) retard dork happy person...but inside my head im screaming, trapped with no place to go ( not so much anymore.. they've helped me alot) . wheni put those headphones in my ears and the opening chords or lyrics of an MCR song fill my head, im home.... sometimes i feel as if MCR are the only people who understand me...no ive never thought of suicide...but i have gotten pretty depressed at times....MCR didn't pull me out of sever depression as much as keep me out of it...its almost like they are going through it with me... so they didn't exactly save my life as much as my emotion and outlook on life... i thank God everyday for bringing me MCR...

Liking this band has affected my life but in a good way. I wouldn't be a fan if i say that it hasn't . My whole perspective on life has turned positive since liking this band because even thought some people that don't understand the band or their lyrics and think that its dark...it actually makes me feel good when i listen to their music. I do tend to said random stuff like what i read off about them from here to my family but i'm just trying to start a conversation...lol. Their music has helped me through a lot and i'm glad and proud to be a fan of this band Very Happy

It effects my life BIG TIME.
I get lables thrown at me where-ever i go.. But luckily i love them too much to care what people think about me Very Happy
Its weird because me and my frends walk round town and i'm wearing an MCR T-shirt and they shout loadsa crap, but thats mostly the chav wanka's Very Happy (Exscuse the languge)

Isnt it funny when you shout abuse at some1 who likes music with a meaning and music that is different..But the minute some1 tells you they like the music video for - Princess supserstar Vs Mason - Perfect exceeder.. (AKA hard core porn) you agreee and say how amazing the eye make up is. Its LAME.

I wouldn't still be with my best friend in the whole world if it wasn't for an MCR show we went to in November.
But people think I'm a compleate sadass for being such a huge fan. I get laughed at because I hardly ever go out without something with MCR written on it. (Alot of my wardrobe is their merch.)
If people start dissing them I get defensive, which leads to arguments.
But whenever I'm feeling crappy listening to MCR seems to make things better.
So they seem to affect me in good and bad ways. But the good make up for the negitiveness of loveing a band surrounded by alot of controversy.

my parents don't let me be emo so I don't even look depressed, but MCR totally saved my life. I have my sig taped on the inside of my locker and written everywhere!

They rock!

my chemical romance completely changed my life. i was a ten year old girl begining to figure herself out but i was always afriad of you know being made fun of or whatever i was always called "the mini avril lavgine" and it pissed me off. why couldnt someone be thereself without be constantly torchured. the first mcr song i ever heard was vampire and i would rock out to it but it wasn't until i heard im not okay that they changed my life it became a relization for me to be myself and not care what anyone thinks. today four years later i am often labeled picked on, etc. but i am much happier with my life knowing that i am who i want to be and no one can change me. and i thank mcr eveyday for that/

Smile im quite shy and people who know me would not accociate me with liking rock music...some of them still dont really know..............so i used to hide away from it......but now i dont feel ashamed!!.....they have made me a more opened minded person, now i feel ambisious, i feel i want to try new things.........i will wear my MCR t shirt......beaucse i want to...i hand out my heart to people who express themselves by wearing what ever clothes they want, .........i feel sorry for all the people on here who say that they are given shit at school.!!...because someone wants to lable them........when anyone calls you a name...such as emo...or death like....just laugh at them!!....they think they are going to get a reaction wen they pick on you!!.......and wen u dont give them the reaction....they they will end up looking stupid!!...........

Wow. I think I'm obsessed with them. No, I don't think. I AM. And the worst thing about it, is that your friends doesn't understands it. They just don't know the feeling of MCR flewing through you wains. Some of my friends are listening to RnB, hiphop and shit like that, and i just can't stand it. They don't fucking understand.

MCR is the best thing that has ever happened to me. If I'm having a hard time, and feeling really depressed. Then they'r there for you. The music that speaks to you. Also the thing about "It isn't worth it", which Gerard says. It helps. All the time.
They also inspire me to draw, sing and play. But most important; Beeing myself.
Theyr'e there for you. Always.

mcr definetly affected my life. like it made me lose friends, but it definetly helped me kinda figure out who i was. also mcr's music helps me through hard times. because their message is amazing because so many kids feel that way now. and its getting totally out of hand with suicide .
and watching life on the murder scene totally helped me too .
so yeah, they have saved my life in a way i guess.

Yesyesyesyesyes.
Some negative ways, but mostly good ways. They showed me that there is a way to make it through life without being miserable. Today, when I was walking down the street I was wearing basically everything My Chemical Romance, and this group of teenagers pointed at me and yelled, "EMO! EMO! EMO! GO CUT YOURSELF!" I pretended I didn't hear them and just kept walking though... Losers...

hells yea it affects.
ive become friends with bunch of awesome poeple cause of them (MCR-shirts were the thing that got us talk to each other :] ),

their songs get me through a lot of crap

i also kinda 'grew up' listening them, i changed hell of a lot when i started to listen(from the age of 13) them cause i started to realise things and see things in different ways, thinks differently and they def had a lot to do with all that

and many times just watching their video, readin interview or hearing them giving their lil speeches makes me little bit happier even if i had an awful day.

and ive spend a lot of money on stuff related to them, so who knows what bad i would've done with all that money D:

Some people back away from me because of it, and some people come to me,
like I now talk to this girl in yr 11 because she loves it, but I get all the stupid chavs yelling emo at me all the time, so I scream back at them!
It affects everything I do and whatever I'm feeling like there's a song to match it.
The music's got me through a lot of shit and I', so grateful for that, even if it has lost me some friends.
Some people think relying on a band that much is ridiculous, but they seem to understand when nobody does.

they've been a huge affect in my life. to the better of course.
They've helped me through time when I thought that I was never going to make it.
And I know that most people see me as an emo nerd or whatever..
I don't care anymore.. because I've MCR and they help me get through each day
