	i think this song talks about a guy who breaks up with a chick who turns emo and starts slashing her wrists cause she can't deal with the pain of the break up then when she tries to get him back his all like get outta here and tells her how much he hates her You are everything that’s wrong with me. You’re everything that I despise. You are everything I dreamed would die. You are everything that fades away and slowly dies. then she is telling himshe can't live without him and he tells her No, his over it It's so yesterday. It's all so fucking yesterday thats mytake on it

	"i think this song talks about a guy who breaks up with a chick who turns emo and starts slashing her wrists" your a fucking weirdo, obsidian0231. thats your take on it, is it? nice one. try again?

No Picture Tyler Wanna Be	#6 by Tyler Swagar at Oct 11, 2007 at 4:02 PM EST
	i think it's about a guy who fakes being emo for attention. and his girlfriend leaves him. and he has no-one. and maybe now he'll actually become emo.. or maybe not. basically saying you're a fake. so prove to me that you're doing all that you say you are. (don't post it on his page, mitch. fight the force.)

No Picture John Wanna Be	#7 by John Merritt at Oct 11, 2007 at 4:13 PM EST
	the song makes fun of the whole "emo" trend; its like, you pretend to be affected for attention, go "suicidal" because of some failed one week relationship because you think its cool to be "emo". this is shown in the lyrics "were all for show" (attention seeking "suicide" attempts) +"JUST LIKE YOU" = your all for show, YOUR FAKE "crocodile tears" (insincere; fake show of sadness) then there "cry me a fucking river, bitch" + "fools never move on" etc which is basically saying your pathetic, get over yourself and then: "you wouldn't know love, if it crushed your fucking chest" is just saying that you probably dont know the first thing about love because whatever your sad about is far from it. and last "will you bleed for me when suicide... it's so yesterday" is pretty much saying; will you still cut your wrist and cry when its not interesting anymore? thats what i get from it. i dont think it has anything to do with a relationship. but it depends how you interpret it.

No Picture claireus Wanna Be	#8 by claireus s at Oct 14, 2007 at 3:15 PM EST
	i actually thought it was slightyly different I think it's about a girl who dumps a guy (she said goodbye) and then the girl starts regreting it and slits her wrists and then she wants him back and he's like yeah fuck that (cry me a fucking river, bitch)

No Picture The Mexican Who Average	#9 by The Mexican Who's Living Under Satan's Wing at Oct 15, 2007 at 7:14 PM EST
	Probably there best song, the guitar part after "You are everything that fades away and slowly dies." is amazing so is the breakdown.

No Picture Kyle Average	#10 by Kyle Landers at Oct 16, 2007 at 10:50 PM EST
	Hai2u, wat my understanding of this song intitally was, was a break up simply. But in reading the lyrics I personally found that they could mean a guy who starts going out with this girl but then her ex comes back into the picture, she feels sorry for him (cause he might cut himself and cry how much he loves her) and realises where her love lies and leaves the other dude. I found this in lines such as: "The incisions is your wrist were all for show". "So serenade her with your last pathetic suicide love song." "But fools never move on. And now she’s gone because of you" "She said goodbye. So cry me a fucking river, bitch". Will you bleed for me when suicide seems so yesterday?" Etc, but thats just my view of it.

No Picture skater-boy Rhythm Player	#11 by skater-boy at Oct 17, 2007 at 5:22 AM EST
	i think it was a girl that was using a guy then acting all emotional and saying she was depressed and cutting herself for attention... and she really hurt the guy then decides she wants him back but he has realised what she is actually like and that she onli wanted him to look cool shown in the last few likes she wont do anything unless its trendy like she will cut for attention but suicide isnt cool
