| This is a great song.. I think it ties in with the story about the man and satan and all that jazz. It's about the guy killing all of the people that he had to but I'm still trying to figure out how it's supposed to end. "and we're all dead now" | |

| This song is fucking amazing. At first listen I think it's about murder, but then I think it's about losing someone. Not sure. And we'll love again and laugh again - I really love this song. | |

| Not to be rude but you guys need to stop criticsing the lyrics on this page. Don't nit pick over every little thing. But my view of this song was that it didn't really have to do with the concept directly. It seemed more of a seperate storyline to me. About a man who goes around and murders select victims. With the lines "Another night and I'll see you/One other night and I'll be you/Some other way to continue to hide my face". To me it seemed to about his man's struggle to continue hiding and killing people and then living their lives for a short while. And in the man's opinion he's doing them a favor in a way and feels that "It's better off this way...And we'll love again and we'll laugh again/We'll try again and we'll dance again/and it's better off this way/So much better off this way". I'm guessing the victims he's choosing lead lives without anyone close to them so he's taking their lives and doing what he can in the short amount of time to make 'their' lives better. And in the end of the song when he is shot and he says "WE'RE all dead now" he's referring to the fact that all of the people he has killed are all really, truely dying at that moment. When he himself is killed all the people whose lives he has taken over are ending. This is just my opinion but it is something I have stuck by since my first time hearing the song. I think this is a great way to end the album and I always enjoyed it. Plus you get to hear Mister Gerard Way say "I'm so dirty babe" so the song should get it's brownie points for that alone. But it's a superbly written song and is incredibly catchy. Great way to end the album. It would be assume if that could be a future single and they'd make a video for it. Hint hint MCR. ;) | |

| Ok, I didn't know about any storyline and I don't listen to all the lyrics so here what my interpretation was. I thought it was about a guy who's a paided assassin but he didn't tell his gf or wife (whatever). Then she finds out when she finds some blood stains. She gets drawn into it and then a crime sydicate or family (whatever) that he has disrupted by killing some of them kills them in an alley with two shots to the back of the head. Hope that dosn't sound too stupid. | |

| And the lyrics on this page are horribly incorrect. The whole "Love again" and "laugh again" thing is talking about when he finally gets his wife back. Hell...maybe the end is actually about somebody killing him before he could kill all the guys "They gave us two shots to the back of the head and we're all dead now" and he talks about how he tried and shit....So yeah..different view on some of the song now but still the basic concept. In the end, he gets killed, or kills himself....seeing as he's a murderer and therefore evil...anyway he's reunited with his wife person in Hell. The End Kthx | |

| i love this song. the funny thing about it tho was the first couple of times i heard the cd i loved the songs in the beginning but didn't particularly go for the songs on the end. this turns out to be one of my favorites probably cuz of the lines "clean me off. i'm so dirty babe. the kinda dirty where the water never cleans off the clothes." | |
