My Chemical Romance: Blood Meaning

Blood Lyrics

Well they encourage your complete cooperation,
Send you roses when they think you need to smile.
I can't control myself because I don't know how,
And they love me for it honestly, I'll be here for a while.

So give them blood, blood, gallons...

   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!

   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"

   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!

   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.

   My Chemical Romance didn't even write this song, it's from a play.

    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...

    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."

    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!

    This is probably way off, but what the hell??
    Ok, its more metaphorical than anything.
    Basically-its saying that although mcr has put in their whole lives in their songs, all of their fans continue to want more and more.
    give them you soul and it will never be enough..right??
    Well, that's the best interpretation that I could think of.
    Yups...great song though..i honestly love it XD
