Thank You For The Venom

Yeah. The title says a lot. Like I've said before, nothing in my life is certain. Take what just happened over the course of today and yesterday - mum was rushed nto A&E again, and now they say it's NOT a heart condition, but they don't know what it is. WHAT THE FUCK???

Now, most people who know me, know that my favourite song is MCR's Welcome to the Black Parade, and my fave album is the album it came from, The Black Parade. Well, it was. Four of my zavvi CDs came today, one of them being Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. I already knew three of the tracks of the album - I'm Not Okay, Helena and Ghost of You. OH MY FUCKING GOD. The album is amazing! Anyway, that's my new favourite album, but my new favourite song I haven't mentioned yet. It's one of thier songs that isn't so widely sung about.

So gimme all your poison

and gimme all your pills

and gimme all your hopeless hearts and make me ILL!

You're running after something that you can never kill

if this is what you wanted

THEN FIRE AT WILL!!!!!!!!!!

For anyone that didn't know the quote, that was from my new favourite song, Thank You For The Venom. I've said it before, I'll say it again - it's amazing how I can relate to the pain of smebody I've never met, and how they can write down the exact same emotions that you feel. Then again... I have been through some of the same things that they have. The album is dedicated to Elena Lee Rush - Gerard and Mikey's Grandmother. The distress her death gave them lead them to thier drinking and drug addictions (something I have not got, but then again, with what I already have, I REALLY don't need that on top of it!) Idon't know if I've mentioned this on my bog before, but this year my family remembered this 5th anniversary of my grandfather's death. From what I know, and please don't qoute me on this, because I'm not certain, Frank's parent's split up when he was young. Umm... I know it's not quite the same, but my family is being broken apart by the bastards of social services. It's only a couple of things, but we (kind of) share the heartbreak, we're in the same boat, so to speak, (at least, I think) because of some of things that we've both been through.

Right now I've been clinging to music because it's all I've got left, well, that and Kerrang! magazines... the latest issue's quiz competitors were... wait for it... RAY TORO AND FRANK IERO!!!!! They got a pretty good score- 10 out of 15! Thing was... they play in the uk a fair bit, but they didn't know that the british call a sidewalk a 'PAVEMENT'! That made me smile. That and 1. Not knowing a lyric by the band Gerard's wife plays in and 2. NOT KNOWING HOW MANY KERRANG! AWARDS THEY HAD WON!!!!! I was giggling my way through it! But no denying it, Ray was the brainbox!!!!
