yea, well every mcr song brings back memories, mostly good, but some sad. cancer gets to me coz one of my good friend's mum and my grandpa died of cancer. (btw im really proud of my self coz i can play parts of it on the piano, when i play it i sing along, then i just get more sad). then other songs make me happy when im sad like famous last words, and im not okay is good to listen to when ur angry, annoyed or upset about something. i just think of the video 4 it and i laugh.

there are no MCR songs that bring back bad memories for me but i find it really weird how certain songs remind me of certain things.
like i watched a video of Jeffree star on his buzznet and 'I Never Told You What I Do For A Living' was playing in the background so now whenever i listen to that song it reminds me of J*.

o yer . . . if u go down my street then turn left, there is a cemetary there. i go past it several times a day. my friend died when she was 11. i was lyk depressed for weeks. she had a serious problem with her heart. i think of her alot, since she was buried at that cemetary. My uncle, grandma, grandpa and a few other family members hav been buried there. its hard not to cry when i go past, especially when i hear cemetary drive.

I don't have that problem with MCR's music. I started listening to them when I needed help, so even though their music kinda makes me think of the crap I've gone thru, mostly it makes me stronger & think of the garbage I've overcome. And that just puts a big old smile on my face.

I can't not listen to any songs, but I am extremely, overwhelmingly attached to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Listening to "Give 'Em Hell, Kid" and "You Know What They do to Guy Like Us in Prison" makes me very nostalgic about my family trip to Panama, and my depression during that school year.

Sometimes I can't take it if I hear a Three Cheers song, but it's rare.

Oh geez.

Man. I can listen to all of the songs, but on 'Cancer' and 'The Desert Song' I almost started crying.

Well, my Great Grandpa had Cancer but he passed from old age... It just makes me look all around me and say "Whoah, one in three people die from this shit." My Great Grandpa died when I was quite young but I still remember him, he was such a good old chap. He always gave us cough drops lol. One time he gave me a freaking permanent marker! Lol hahah. My Uncle Sam also died from Cancer, but I was extremely young.. I remember being told we peeled potatoes together Smile

Secondly, the Desert Song makes me get really depressed because a couple weeks ago my Great Grandma passed, the line "I can see you awake, anytime in my head" Kills me. You know, I was so blind to the fact that she was frail and old, I didn't realise that one day someone can just go. My mom phoned me and I could tell she was crying, so I was all worried. I had to phone my sister and pass the message on. After that I just broke down, I fucking hated the fact I didn't get to say bye, at the time I had a cold and I still do. The last time I saw her was when she was in her coffin. Her hands were cold and hard but she looked at peace. But as Gee said, "Death can come to you through your fondest memories, a black sedan, a parade, etc." I think that it was not a memory that came for her, but her love. I think that she just got tired and my Great Grandpa took her hand. Whenever I hear that song it gives me time to think back about the memories we shared. I talked to my mom about it and I guess she was there when Great Grandma passed, you know, in the same room.. Yeah, I'm not expecting sympathy and I most likely wouldn't of gotten it in the first place, I just had to get that off of my chest. Its amazing how music can heal you. I think I'm over it but sometimes when someone just mentions it out of the blue I tend to get down...

But I'm also not blind to the fact that death is a part of life. Luckily, through MCR, I've learned to accept it and in a way, embrace it; not saying I want to die. I'm just saying that I hate how people cower away from it and think its some type of monster... It's not, its a part of life and sooner or later we will all pass, if I had not of realized this before I would have undoubtedly had trouble coping. But they had it coming I guess.

Uhm. Well, I'm kind of tearing up now so I'll move on...

All of the MCR songs make me reflect on life and look back, they most importantly help me deal with depression and make me want to carry on, they make me stronger. I don't know why, but 'Headfirst for Halos' makes me think of my childhood, you know, dancing my life away. It made me think of all of the fun times and somehow, my 'crushes'. 'I Don't Love You' severely depresses me because it makes me think of someone whom I loved. They did not really notice me and the whole time I tried to act nice to them, but they'd be immature to have a civilized conversation with me so eventually I gave up and acted immature to them.. It also reminds me of a man I love so dearly, we are friends but I cannot have him for obvious reason, it breaks my heart. 'Give Em Hell Kid' kind of makes me reflect on the times when I was an ass or was acting out of line, mostly causing trouble, and it reminds me of punching a guy, I loved that.

I'm Stopping Now. I could go on and on. Now I'm sad. Bleh. Sorry for teh EMO'ness.

Cancer
Because I have lost so many family
members due to that damn disease.
It reminds me of all the shit they had
to go through and all the pain I went
through watching them die

I dont love you
because me and the love of my life
just broke up after three years together
and im so lost without him. i cant go
a minute without thinking about him.
