Pretty much the same riff over and over again, palm muted during the chorus.

===============================================================================

This is the dreaded "first tab" that everyone posts...I know it's weak, it's only the
rhythm part, but I'm just getting the hang of figuring stuff out by ear. There's not
enough MCS tabs out there, someone needs to tab out all the parts to 'My Favorite
Accident'. Someone who really knows what they're doing.

bloodkid, a lot of this cd is about his battle with depression. I'm sure that whole thing about what x does to you is true, but yea, that's not what the song's about.

i think that this song DOES have to do with depression, and at the part when he's asking if someone would be his alibi, he means someone who will beleive that he IS trying to get better, and battle his problems.

if you don't like this song don't comment and use the spare time to grow up? depression seems right. "and now the walls are closing in again" the feeling of isolation and complete loneliness which people suffering from depression experience.

Serotonin is a chemical in your brain. "Lack of serotonin is believed to play an important part of the biochemistry of depression, bipolar disorder and anxiety." and a synapse is a nerve impulse it has nothing to do with exstacy...I don't think he'd be refering to therapy and medication if it was

ok PuNkS*r*Us your 100 percent wrong on this one.Depression? so of but not really! it's about ecstacy and how Serationin Synapse is a study about what happends to ecstacy users 2 days later i.e. :the ecstasy users feel significantly more depressed, abnormal, unsociable, unpleasant, and less good tempered,

I just got the CD today... I absolutely adore this song. As for meanings... well, it's pretty obviously about depression. About overcoming it with pills and shit. But yeah... awesome song.
