My Chemical Romance – Mama Lyrics 6 years ago
ALRIGHT this song is basically about war. if you notice in the beggining of the song there is gunshots. now..
thie first verse, mama we all go to hell. im guessing this is a story of a boy writing to his mother about war, what it truly is... we al lgo to hell because we are murderes, and honestly when your in war the image of heaven begins to fade (In all Quiet on the WEstren Front for example, the man begins to lost the meaning, value, and goodness of life) or goint to hell for the murders.
the second verse is an extention of the writing, perhaps the next letter. Don't ask me question mom, about this war, you relaly dont want to hear how terible it is (also shown in al quiet) We are all going to die is a sort of theme reflected throghout the play, im thinking die in war specifically from evidance mentioned later.
Third verse: when he talks about blame us, dont blame us when we go, this can be related to what many people due at funerals, push the blame of death on the dead, such as "Why did you have to go?, IT wasn't your time! You left me hear!" ect. we'll let the fire bathe us is im guessing, a sort of weapon, bobms even guns can be fitted with fire.. youve made us all so famous, iim guessing war heros, to the family these boys that fight are famous, they work hard for our conuntry (this is seen today).. we'l never let you go, i suppose is a promise that even through death the soldiers love thier families, and when you dont return to me my love, i think, is exemplifying thier death.
alright fourth verse.. in this all full of lies im guessing jsut the initial lie of what your fighting for about whats actually going on in the war.. a coffin your size once again relates to death, death from war..
verse five: now i think the first line, about the legs can be taken titerally. toung im thinking sanity, what he says or does or expresses. you should have raised a baby girll... hmm. well my first thought was that, though a generalization, the soldier wishes he was a girl, not really expected to go off to war.. i should have been a better son is the regret that he took so many thing sfor granted and now with death so near it can be taken away, he should have been nicer, shown how much he appreciated his mother.. the infection and moutation i take litteraly and an example of the pain of war.
verse seven: she said you aint no son of mine.. the mother sounds disgusted with the soldiers actions, killing, for what youve done there, is of corse, the war. Yuoi'll find a place for you..well im guessing this means that, afteer war a soldier has trouble operating with normal society (PTSD) and so must make a place for himself.. and just mind your manners whne you go (LOVE THAT LINE) ok well i think this line expresses the, the painstaking effort soldiers go through to kepp things normal, to not break out and go insane, soldiers must mind thie manners even after the trama of war.
verse eight: this to me represents the expectancy of a soldier not coming home, it i sright to sacrifice yourself in war..
verse nine: this sems sort of mocking.. hell is quite plesent except for the smell, it almost mocks what hell is, that they have been there and eventually one is numb to it.
Liza: and if you would call me your sweetheart, i'd maybe then sing you a song. (maybe represents lovers, and how they ask for what seems like the most unimportant things for an unimportant reward compared to the life and death situation of fighting.)
Gerard: but the shit that I've done with this spark of a gun, (how can you sing me something so innocent after all the things ive done, killed?)
You will cry us to rise up alive. (you want them alive again, but im not thinking the shell of a man after war, but the young full one before it)

We’re dead after all.
Through fortune and fame we fall.
And if you can say that I’ll show you the way
And straight from the ashes you crawl.
I think this verse menas no mater what death comes, and i know death so well i can help you to it almost (???) straight from the ashes of (??? ) life, death?
We all carry on (perhaps relates to other lyrics, no matter how much violancce we still go on)
Like our brothers in arms we fall, (taken two ways, our actual biological brothers, and brothers of war)
So raise your guns high for tomorrow we die, (the sadly natural way death is expected in war)
And return from the ashes you're from. (return home? return to chaos? not sure..)

Panic! at the Disco – I Constantly Thank God For Esteban Lyrics 6 years ago
allright..
everyone, my apologies, but im almost positive the song does not connect to any part of the cd in anyway. i've read interviews in where Panic! at the Disco has stated the CD is not built like a story, I believe that interview was featured on VH1, and if not a numnber of fan sites.
This song, I believe, is directly making fun of religion. If you think about all the problems we have to-day. no offense to religious people, but some may have noticed religious authority preaches however do not necessarily follow what they say- thus walking contridictors.
The forked toungese, faux seremones once again represents the hypocritcal people.
When Panic says they are the knew wave gospel, thats almost saying that they are the ones to step up and understand all the ignorance going around them. modern, observant people basically.

an unshakable belief in something without need for proof or evidence
thats what conviction is. so he's telling the church preach truly, with actual faith, because as we know, and once again sorry if this seems offensie, the church has in fact bargained and manipulated people with mindset on money, not faith.
Come, congregation, and let's sing it like you mean it
No, don't you get it, don't you get it?
Now don't you move
these lines had the biggest power on me. sing it like you mean it.. now do people preach becuase they believe in god, or because they are afraid of going to hell?
Don't you get it? to me thats panic asking if anyone understands the falsities of the church.

In this little number we are graced by two displays of character
We've got the gunslinger extraordinaire (whats worse a contradictor or a true killer?)
And a walking contradiction (people preaching but not following thier own words)
Because I for one can see no blood from their hearts
Or the wrists you allegedly slit (attention seeking. i believe this song also mocks that aspect of society)
And I for one won't stand for this
If this scene were a parish( The area around a Church for which a priest is responsible.)
you'd all be condemned
And thus his line ends saying, if you really trully were resposible, you would be in a large amount of trouble, contadictors..)
i really hope my opinion asnt offended anyone. this is just my view and is not necessarilly the correct deciphering of the lyrics. hope you enjoyed my views.
