if you're in I'm out
I started writting this a while ago, and when I was assigned to write an essay on a Controversial topic, I decided that i'd write a controversial essay. I cussed and I wrote about something insanely Random.
Allright, so here's the deal. I am sick of everybodys bullshit when it comes to music. I'm not scene. I don't claim to be. I'm from Big Timber fucking Montana. There's nothing here. So, allright here I am, sitting in band and I realize that one of the flute players is wearing a My Chemical Romance band shirt. The same one that I have. This girl looks about 6 and probably listens to N'Sync still. These little "pop punkers" are stealing the music. My Chemical Romance is an AMAZING band and I love them. But I wonder what the next album is going to sound like. My guess is that all the songs are something along the lines of "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)". I hate that everybody sells out. It's Inevitable. Everybody does it.
And another thing. Emo's are people too. We just have more feelings and take more medication than everybody else. Cutting doesn't mean you feel sorry for yourself. It's beautiful and releases your pain. Emo doesn't mean you're a poor little rich girl crying because she can't go out on a Friday night. If you're Emo you actually give a damn-you're just a bit depressed.
You don't have to look a certain way to like music. But you do have to know what it's about. if you don't, then you don't understand the music truely. And if you don't understand, well then fuck you. Three Cheers is a concept album. Suppousedly about a couple stranded in a desert. Very bonnie and clyde-esque. That's what Lyricist/singer Gerard Way's all about. The Images. The Pain. The brief beautiful happiness before you realize that you're fucked over and that some pervert is going to rape you because Sugar, you're going to jail. I wonder how many little Freshman Pop Punkers know that much about the music. Half the songs have refrences to Gerard or somebody else in the band having sexual relations with another man. Do you have a problem with homosexuals? Well, then. Fuck You. Because it's none of your business who these guys fuck or fall in love with.
If you're in then I'm out.
If you're a fan of My Chemical Romance, then tell me...who's their original drummer?
If you're a fan of The Used then sing me Zero Mechanism.
Don't you dare say that there's going to be "losers" at Warped Tour because, damnit, you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
You're not emo if you cut and cry and write love songs and play two chords on the guitar over and over to make a song. You're not punk if you have spiked hair. You're not a car if you stand in a garage. You're not a christian if you go to church. You can't be scene unless you truely understand. How do you do that? Fuck you. Find out yourself.
