Okay so, I never got out the full truth about MCR and I. I'm
gonna tell you the whole story this time. I'm not making you
listen either, just wanna get it out there. A long time ago in the
year 2010, I was at home with my siblings watching the 2010 Video
Game Awards. My Chemical Romance were playing a song at that show.
The song was called Planetary (GO!). Instantly when I heard it, I
knew there was something special about My Chemical Romance. After
the VGAs were over, I asked my sister about MCR. She downloaded The
Black Parade to my mp3. I fell so in love with that album, that it
was pretty much all i would listen to. Later on, I asked about more
of their stuff. My sister said that she had Danger Days. I wanted
her to download it to my mp3. She had said that it wasn't very
good. I didn't believe her, so she downloaded it anyway. At
first, I didn't like it. I had stopped listening to them for a
while. One day, in the summer of 2011, I was sitting on my bed
listening to Green Day. Out of nowhere I got a feeling in my chest.
A sort of empty sadness. I was missing something. I couldn't
think of what. I started crying, so I switched the song to
something a little more upbeat. It wasn't helping at all. I
knew what had to be done. I pulled out The Black Parade and put it
in the CD player. I felt completely better. I was now crying tears
of joy. I had missed My Chemical Romance so much. I tried Danger
Days again, and fell in love. I mentally slapped myself because I
felt dumb for not loving it before. Later on, during the spring
break of 2012, I bought Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge. Then, I
found I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love. Every
single song by MCR that I had heard just blew my mind. I never
really felt like a real fan because of what I had done. The one
time I let them slip away left me with regret. I tried to make it
up to them in a way. Okay, so lets go back to 2011. MCR and Blink
182 were on the honda civic tour. I think it was September 4th that
they played a show here. I was stoked for so long because I wanted
to go to that concert so badly. I had asked my mom but she told me
no. I was devastated. I thought that it wouldn't be the only
chance I would get to see my heroes live. I was wrong. On March
22nd 2013, my world was shattered. For an entire week I felt empty
and broken. My Chemical Romance mean the world to me. They are so
much more than just a band. They're my heroes. I was never
suicidal, but in a way MCR saved me. They saved me from what I was
becoming. I owe them everything. Someday I will thank them. I need
to. They inspire me and so many others daily. They will always be
saving lives. Even if they're not a band anymore. The message
is still there. It always will be. I'm going to carry on with
what they started. Saving lives. Making a difference.
