Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to hell, it's good to see you.
I think that we will be friends.
Welcome to hell. You're stuck here with me.
I guess that it's really not so bad.
You had to know that this was coming,
had to know that this is how it'd be.
How could you expect it any other way,
acting how you did?
And i'm a loser too, I'm just like you.
We fucked it up. Had no idea.
And we blamed each other for what we had done.
Welcome to hell. I see the problem.
We both have our chapters in this tale.
Had to know that this was coming,
had to know that this is where we'd be.
I don't know how you still don't have any guilt




about what's happening.
'Cause it's affecting you. We're all screwed.

They both made mistakes, and they both have to live with the consequences.


Overall, "Welcome" is a song about accepting responsibility for our actions, and finding strength in solidarity with those who share our struggles.

The question is: who gets to decide what is and isn't true? This is why censorship in any way, shape, or form is bad.
