No Picture MelissA Average	#1 by MelissA at Sep 27, 2007 at 6:31 PM EST
	I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I think there is an error in the lyrics above. "Well I cut his hair AND myself one night" ...I just went back and listened again, and I do believe that "and" is in there, which changes the song completely for me, because not only did she hurt him, but she hurt herself. "And he told me that I'd done alright...," etc is him comforting her through both of their pain. I don't think she is referring directly to samson and delilah, but instead that she is using her experience to refer to a man that she thought of as perfect as samson. I can totally relate, because to me she is saying something is wrong with HER, and thus she takes it out on Samson, and then is accepted for it. He is her sweetest downfall in that she can "fall" and he is there... so it is a fall from grace, but one into which she can collapse and still be loved. I think it's a song of ultimate love and redemption through the eyes of someone else. The part about "we couldn't bring the columns down" refers to her own issues. He can't fix them for her, and whatever is "wrong" with her is permanent. Not fixable by any man, no matter how strong. And history books forgot about us... simply because history no longer takes notice of great love stories. If she was truly referring to the bible verse, that line wouldn't be there... in my opinion.

No Picture Matt Rhythm Player	#2 by Matt at Sep 27, 2007 at 9:02 PM EST
	yeah.. these are the right lyrics.. the others werent... but this is one of my favorites on the black parade album.. other than "Welcome To The Black Parade" and "Teenagers"

No Picture Derek Lead Player	#3 by Derek O'Kanos at Sep 28, 2007 at 12:45 AM EST
	What the fuck! They are not sellouts. They tried something new and their true fans love it. [aka me]. You people dissing and bashing need to stop calling them emo and shit. Screw labels. Screw haters. MCR is one of the best bands in the fucking world and yall can go screw yourselfs if you disagree.

No Picture Joe Average	#4 by Joe Fitzpatrick at Sep 28, 2007 at 4:06 PM EST
	um, any of you who are saying my chemical romance is a sell-out;; why are you even posting it? people who comment should be people who actually like their music... not for people to complain that they are a "sell out". just because this album isn't your favorite or whatever, you don't have to bitch & moan about it on here.

No Picture Kyle Average	#5 by Kyle Lester at Sep 28, 2007 at 6:45 PM EST
	This songs is about a woman a man who on their wedding, she finds out that he is gay. she poisons him with cyanide and drowns him. and then she's goes aruond spending his money like crazy. and in the end she kills herself (swallowing diamonds) and they get married in the afterlife. pixiepunk

No Picture Fat Man Goz Lead Player	#6 by Fat Man Goz at Sep 30, 2007 at 3:34 PM EST
	anathematic, at the end he says he's going to "string this mother****** on fire", out of anger I presume. To me, it seems like it's about the ending of a relationship. I also agree with it being one of the best songs on Three Cheers. This band is amazing

No Picture brad Rhythm Player	#7 by brad music at Oct 11, 2007 at 6:33 PM EST
	i agree... i think the one half is about a woman who kills their husbands for thier money and keeps repeating this crime to get exactly what she wants, all the finer things in life. Yet the murder is never blamed on here. I think the first half is about a man and theres no way out. He's stuck in this "tomb" for the rest of his life and he feels all alone.. anyway great freekin song

No Picture quinn almann ' Wanna Be	#8 by quinn almann ' jk carson at Oct 12, 2007 at 10:10 AM EST
	I personally have always thought of this song to be about realizing you've been pretending to be "someone you're not." Therefore, you've ended your true self. I very well could be wrong, but it's how I've looked at it. On a note on the previous comments... Here is my own comment to be added: I believe it's fine to say if you like or dislike the music. That's fine. However, should you say "omgz it sux cuz itz 2 manestreem!11one" or "OMFG U EMO!!!11"... or "i haet rap!!1" and leave your message at that... should be unacceptable. At least give a valid reason for disliking the song. (By the way - I most certainly dislike rap and I love rock... So I'm trying not to be too biased here.) Extra note: Emo is a label usually associated with people who hate their lives and want to die. MCR is the complete opposite of "wanting to die." On the other hand, their style can be called "emo." I'm just stating they're probably NOT the kind of band that believes in teenagers whining about their crappy lives and cutting themselves when the kids are rich and loved by everyone. I'm standing up for the band that has made me love life like a hippie.

No Picture Jordan Rhythm Player	#9 by Jordan at Oct 16, 2007 at 12:21 AM EST
	You said it, xFlare!!! Totally agree with you! That shit about tragic downfall, yeah. You got it all:) How would you complaining people like it if every record were just the same as the last one? I imagine.

No Picture Ryan Wanna Be	#10 by Ryan Carter at Oct 16, 2007 at 6:00 AM EST
	I noticed that too. To me it sounds like a combination of the songs "In The Flesh?" (the opening song of the Pink Floyd album "The Wall") and "Five Years" (the opening song of the David Bowie album "Ziggy Stardust.") I think Gerard Way just ran out of ideas on how to write opening lyrics for an album and simply decided to skim off the top. But he has admitted that Pink Floyd, David Bowie and Queen are huge influences on MCR.

No Picture Gary Wanna Be	#11 by Gary Rossington at Oct 17, 2007 at 5:42 AM EST
	yeah i just wanted to say that the line "Walk away from the choice you made" is actually "and walk away as the parties fade." just thought i would be helpful.. but anyway. this is a kick ass song and i agree with whoever said it that it's about 2 people about to get married but the song is saying that this is whats eventually gonna happen. ruined marriage. anyway to whoever said that whole "this elevator only goes up to ten" thing was about how the marriage only lasts 10 years.. well thats actually interesting i like that. never thought of it that way. so yeah. and when the say "to the end" at the very end it's almost like they're giving a sarcastic toast. as if it was a toast to the end when they're just at the beginning. MCR kicks ass!
