It\'s Not A Fashion Statement It\'s A Deathwish
My Chemical Romance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And what I'll do to you
You get, what everyone else gets
You get a lifetime
Go
Do you remember that day when we met
You told me this gets harder
Been holding on forever
Promise me that when I'm gone you'll kill my enemies
The damage you've inflicted temporary wounds
I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me
I'm taking back the life you stole
We never got that far
This helps me to think all through the night
Bright lights that, won't kill me now, or tell me how
Just you and I, your starless eyes remain
Hip hip hooray for me, you talk to me, but would you kill me in my sleep
Lay still like the dead
From the razor to the rosary
We could lose ourselves
And paint these walls in pitchfork red
I will avenge my ghost with every breath I take
I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me
I'm taking back the life you stole
This hole that you put me in
Wasn't deep enough
And I'm climbing out right now
You're running out of places to hide from me
When you go
Just know that I will remember you
If living was the hardest part
We'll then one day be together
And in the end we'll fall apart
Just as the leaves changing colors
And then I will be with you
I will be there one last time now
When you go
Just know that I will remember you
I lost my fear of falling
I will be with you
I will be with you
"It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish" by My Chemical Romance is an angsty and powerful song that portrays the angst and pain that results from a destructive relationship. The lyrics are visceral, describing the frustration and anger that comes with being in a toxic relationship. The song speaks to the complex emotions that arise when you are in love with someone who is causing you pain.
The lyrics start off with a gloomy tone as the singer details what the partner has done to them and what they plan to do in return. The singer promises to kill the enemies of their lover and take back the life that has been stolen from them. The singer also mentions the temporary wounds that have been inflicted, which implies that they have tried to leave before and were hurt again. The chorus is full of passion, as the singer is ready to avenge themselves, coming back from the dead to take revenge. The line "Hip hip hooray for me, you talk to me, but would you kill me in my sleep" is full of irony, as it describes how conflicting emotions can be.
The bridge of the song is melancholic, with a softer tone that speaks to the difficult emotions of the relationship. The singer wants their partner to know that they will remember them and they want to be together one last time. The final lines of the song describe a sense of freedom as the singer has let go of their fear of falling and will be with them.
Line by Line Meaning
For what you did to me
You hurt me in some way and now I have to retaliate
And what I'll do to you
I will make sure to make you suffer as I did
You get, what everyone else gets
You will receive the same fate or punishment as anyone else would in your place
You get a lifetime
You will have to live with the consequences of your actions for the rest of your life
Do you remember that day when we met
Do you recall our first encounter?
You told me this gets harder
You warned me about the difficulties of the future
Well it did
Your prediction came true
Been holding on forever
I've been enduring this pain for a very long time
Promise me that when I'm gone you'll kill my enemies
Please promise me that you'll take revenge on behalf of me when I'm no longer here
The damage you've inflicted temporary wounds
You have hurt me before, but those injuries were only temporary and I'm still standing strong
I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me
I will not let you get away with what you have done, even if it means returning from the grave to get you
I'm taking back the life you stole
You have taken something precious from me and I will reclaim it
We never got that far
Our relationship or partnership did not progress as intended
This helps me to think all through the night
This situation or circumstance allows me to ruminate or ponder throughout the night
Bright lights that, won't kill me now, or tell me how
The bright lights around us won't harm me or reveal to me what I need to know
Just you and I, your starless eyes remain
Only you and I remain in this empty, dark space
Hip hip hooray for me, you talk to me, but would you kill me in my sleep
I am mocking myself in celebration, but still questioning your loyalty
Lay still like the dead
Remain motionless, like a corpse
From the razor to the rosary
From violent acts to prayer, a wide range of actions are taken
We could lose ourselves
We have the potential to become completely immersed or absorbed in this situation
And paint these walls in pitchfork red
We can express our violent tendencies by painting the walls red with the symbol of a pitchfork
I will avenge my ghost with every breath I take
I will avenge my former self, the person I used to be, with every breath I take
This hole that you put me in
This difficult or traumatic situation that you've forced me into
Wasn't deep enough
This situation did not completely cripple me or defeat me as you intended
And I'm climbing out right now
I am finally overcoming this situation and moving on
You're running out of places to hide from me
You can no longer run or hide from me, I will find you
When you go
When you leave or pass away
Just know that I will remember you
You will always be remembered by me
If living was the hardest part
If life was the most difficult thing to endure
We'll then one day be together
One day we will be reunited
And in the end we'll fall apart
Eventually, we will separate or deteriorate
Just as the leaves changing colors
Just like how the leaves change colors during autumn
And then I will be with you
Then, I will be by your side
I will be there one last time now
I will be with you for the last time now
I lost my fear of falling
I am no longer afraid to fail or fall down
I will be with you
I will be by your side
I will be with you
I will be by your side
