My life was awful. When I was a kid, I was fat, pretty ugly and had awful hair. I used to get teased every fucking day. Slammed up against lockers, punched in the face - you name it. Hell, I had to go to prom with one of my female friends because I couldnt even get a proper date. I cant even look back at those photos because I look so bad. I transfered schools, but the teasing just got worse. After a, lets say, "incident" I had with the school play, the bullying just got worse. But I made it through high school, only to find out that real life was pretty much the same. I just stayed in my dark room all day. I didnt talk to anyone, I didnt go outside. I just stayed inside and drew. I'd draw vampires, mummies, hereoes, villians. Anything to help me escape all the bad in the world. I went to art school and didnt really belong. All I could draw was comic book characters. I tried to put my only good talent to use, by drawing a cartoon and pitching it - only to have it turned down. Life to me was just pointless. I started drinking, doing drugs and just generally wasting my life drawing. Then one day, I saw bodies falling from the sky. I witnessed people dying. And thats when I decided to turn my life around. I called up anyone I knew who had an instrument and we formed a band. Being on tour for the first few years was bad. All we'd do is get drunk and do drugs, but I loved it. Because I was doing something I loved with people I loved. And a few years ago I met the most perfect woman ever. It's like we share a wavelink or something. She just knows me, without even knowing me if you understand. And now, 2011. I have a beautiful baby girl, a caring wife and I get to perform for all my adoring fans every day. I am living proof that no matter how bad life gets, it gets better. I am Gerard Way, and I survived.

I think that's quite an accurate picture of Gerard, but there's no way he would ever say anything like that it that way in my opinion....it sounds like some kind of fanfic~
Does anyone know if the band intend//ever intended to film any more "killjoys" music videos after SING for either Planetary or Bulletproof Heart? I was expecting them to film the rest of the singles as part of the Killjoys story, but it doesn't look like that'll happen now.
I always thought that Gerard's and Mikey's parents separated while they were children, and i started to wonder how old they would of been when they separated.
But now i can not find anything to say that they are separated, has anyone else heard this and where from?
In the song 'Party Poison' the lady who opens the song speaks in Japanese, yes? what is she saying?
This is pretty much what she's saying: beginning: “everyone! we filled up the car with gas and the suitcase with bombs. life is short and we have a dangerous way ahead so let’s dance!”
middle: “so you wanna be famous? just wait. i wanna keep going forever. i’m gonna explode!!”
end: ““let’s dance together until the body breaks down!”
