this is a little joke between MCR and the fans at the end of their album
its basically saying 'okay, we're really different now, but we're still the same guys and we know where we came from'
they haven't forgotten their roots in all the horror movie stuff just because they've got swept up in fame and everything.

Have any of you considered that this might not be literal?
When he says "I gave you blood, blood, gallons of the stuff/ Gave you all that you could drink and it has never been enough" it could mean that, for example in a relationship, he's given his all to someone and they still wanted more. Literally, he feels like he'd do anything for this person and even though he has nothing left to give he'd still spill more of his blood for this person.

I think this song could be about how obsessed fans can be, and how they can want so much out of their idols and how MCR might feel that even though they do all they can its never enough for their fans or other people.
'Give them blood, blood, gallons of the stuff, give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough'
As if they are giving their very souls in their work, pouring out every ounce of them into what they do and how some people can still want more.

Might not be though. Just what I think.

i think this song is about MCR giving every last ounce of themselves to their music and fans and no matter how crazy they are their fans love them unconditionally.

I think it's a combination about the patient being leeched on by the nurses for more blood for test, etc..., and also in real life how people always want more from you even though you're giving all of yourself.

anonymous March 25th, 2007 08:38PM  
I think this song is about the patient, but also, to a larger extent, the world and us. Its about how we all love blood sports, and we all want to see the train wreck. It isn't literal. There are no vampires. Its about everyone loving him because he's dying. "I'm the kind of human wreckage that you love."

anonymous April 10th, 2007 07:46PM  
OOOOOOKAAAAAY this song... I'm sure this is about giving something.. and I don't mean blood... It's like when people want you to be like this or like that and you're giving them what they want evey time but it will never be nough 'cause while you're doing things more like they want, they want even more... I think it could be about parents and kids... when some parents put a lot of pressure inn their kids and the kid will never make them happy.. Tghey want more and more.. and they can think "he's an awful fuck"...

anonymous May 27th, 2007 03:34PM  
Ok this is what I think but we'll probably never know unless they say, or the whole song could be random, but that's not their style.

Ok, Well they encourage your complete co-operation, send you roses when they think you need to smile.
Its sounds like a man who's life is being controlled by the media, "they encourage your complete co.." they want you to be a part of decisions (by making you think you made them when they did) "send you roses..." His image is being controlled, a constantly sad celeb isn't much fun after a while. "I can't control myself because I don't know how" He doesn't know how to control his own life, probably not being able to get out of the routine of everything being done for him. "But they love me for it honestly ill be here for a while" His media created image pleases the public, he'll be here for a while. "So give them blood, blood gallons of the stuff give them all that they could drink and it would never be enough" Whenever he makes his own decisions and puts his heart and soul into it its never enough. Either that or his real image which he loved and stuff wasn't enough for producers and people. "they can fix me proper with a bit of luck" He believes his past self really wasn't any good and hopes they can make him "better".
".... They adore me but its really quite alarming because I'm such an awful fuck" The public adore him but if they knew the real him they'd think he's an awful fuck. "im the kinda human wreckage that you love" This one was easy, the media loved to take a wreck and transform him.


The fact that it's about blood is most likely purely because if it wasnt it wouldnt be the horror-filled mcr we love!

anonymous May 29th, 2007 03:38PM  
In 'Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge" they were going for the whole dead,killing,vampire type thing, I'm thinking that this was just a way for them to say "yeah we changed here but we're still the old band you know and love."

anonymous June 11th, 2007 03:53PM  
I also think this song is more literal, however I think he is using the term 'blood' to mean life, because blood is needed to live. They are saying give all their heart and soul and 'life' into their performances and committing their life to their fans.

It is merely my opinion though, tell me what you think...

peteinmypants June 15th, 2007 05:27PM  
I just think this song is funny!

anonymous June 22nd, 2007 01:04PM  
I think this is a bit of a general fame thing. All they seem to do is give the fans more and more, in this case songs/blood. But its never enough. It doesn't tell you to back off so I don't think he's having a go at people just pointing out the obvious.

Someone said something about the first 1.30 seconds or so being silent,well that is because it's a hidden track, so it's separated from the rest of the album. personally, this song always reminds me of those old silent movies even though it's not silent. anyone agree? or think I'm crazy? it's just the upbeat music and gerard's cute voice singing the catchy chorus!

Umm..the one night stand thing was supposed to be for another song.....and yeah I think that the person above me is right..

anonymous July 2nd, 2007 10:14AM  
This song is about the patient being killed by doctors and nurses

MCRocker666 July 2nd, 2007 07:23PM  
This song is about The Patient, (the main character of The Black Parade). "I'll be here for a while" Saying he knows he is going to die here. But while he was in the hospital they kept taking blood to run tests. He finally started to think of the nurses as Vampires. "I give you all that you can drink and it will never be enough" And at the end he states that the Vampires are loving the state he is in because they keep getting blood. "I'm the kinda human wreckage that you love"

anonymous July 2nd, 2007 07:39PM  
Obviously none of you are familiar with a hidden track. It's just a fun little song that was inspired by the theme of the album, their just being smart alecs! yes, it might have something to do with the patient, but it's just a fun song that you can laugh at, you people take life too seriously!

anonymous July 7th, 2007 12:19AM  
I agree w/ person above me, the other anonymous, this is just fun! laugh people laugh! if you can laugh! maybe your souls r rotting from all the darkness in the album so they try 2 save them by giving you this! but noooooo you guys take even more seriously! I swear do you guys just sit around contemplating the deepest meaning of everything? get a freaking life!

anonymous July 13th, 2007 12:35AM  
I'm very surprised to see that not anyone has thought about the possibility of it being anti-war, I mean "encourage complete cooperation" they being the gov. want us to do what they tell us is important for the war, " I can't control myself cause I don't know how" the gov. Is becoming more and more controlling over our lives, because they know whats best for us and think we don't know, "they love me for it honestly ILL BE HERE FOR A WHILE" most definitely coming from a soldiers point of view because under current legislation the military have the right to extend the length of a soldiers deployment if he is active and his contract expires, "give them blood blood gallons of the stuff, give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough" meaning that no matter how many casualties and deaths they are still keeping the soldiers in harms way when they are making no progress so it seems that no matter how drastic the suffering is and the exponential amount of blood loss they will never pull them out

anonymous July 20th, 2007 03:48PM  
This may not be right. I think 'Blood' is about the media.
'I can't control myself because I don't know how, and they love me for it, honestly' - face it, famous people are always screwing up in front of the press. and the press love it.
'I gave you blood, blood... I gave you all that you could drink and it will never be enough' - no matter what happens, how much you give, the media are always thirsty for more.
I could give more examples but I've forgotten them.
(if you think this is rubbish, just bear in mind I am 12 and I am not sure about it myself)
