I Write Sins Not Tragedies Lyrics
as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor,
and I can't help but to hear, no I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words.
(I love you, I love you too)
"What a beautiful wedding!",
"What a beautiful wedding! says a...
-
Ive heard from somewhere-
That the groom is part of some circus of some sort-
and that Brendon (Lead Singer) is the groom-
as you can see right at the end!
Might be wrong-
don't blame me plz -
It's obviously about a wedding, without question. But I'm going to take it from the video clip's point of view. Take the singer to be the best man who is in love with the bride. They might have had an affair behind the groom's back. He was probably so infatuated with the bride-to-be that he was sure that they would be together but by the sounds of it, it seems as if the wedding is going to go on as planned.
"Better to face these things with a sense of poise and rationality" suggests that the bride wants the security that the groom offers her and forget about the affair.
"Technically the marriage is saved" shows the frustration on the singer's part. -
I think something else...I believe that the waiter represents the leader of the grooms life, and also the groom's conscience. When he says that she's a whore, it shows the groom's fear of his wife's possible betrayel. She doesn't want to go with the marriage because she knows that he knows, so she runs out of the area. Then when the groom finally breaks up with the future wife, he becomes the waiter, or in other words, the ringleader of his life.

I think this is about the singer being an onlooker in, well almost a dream situation(not cause of the video).
The singer is really the grooms and brides for that matter voice of reasoning, as they both do not want to go ahead, however the groom is to 'chicken'.
The song makes references to what could be seen as the real and the 'now'(whats seen in video), for instance "No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poison rationality" 'poison rationality' as being what they were headed for; twisted logic, and skewed logic.
And obviously the twisted logic is their marriage -
This song is simply about: A woman soon to be married is cheating on her husband (soon to be) and gossip that reaches the husband during the wedding. Saving their marriage which was not official.

I SOMEWHAT agree with this interpretation. I think much more can be derived from the video as to who the "singer" is.
In the video, a man comes and crashes the wedding. The couple freaks out; it seems as though it's tearing the groom up inside. The bride leaves, and a man in the back row follows her. The man who crashed the wedding, grabs the groom by the collar and forces him to follow his fiancee and the man who followed her. When they get to the outside of the chapel, he seems them kissing, and he looks crushed. The groom and the wedding crasher take a bow, and it turns out that the groom and the wedding crasher were the same person. The man who stopped the wedding was actually the grooms conscience, telling him that his bride was nothing more than a "whore".
The bridesmaid and the waiter are just metaphors. -
I think that it's about some guy who is not exactly the best character in the book. He may be in the outside and he uses this to his advantage by doing bad/evil things to people he hates and no one ever thinks it was him because no one really knows him. Then he comes out of his cage and tells his enemies off and tells them about what he's done. So then he realizes that these people do the same things, but use their fame to cover their crimes.
-
I believe it is the groom's thoughts as he is getting married. I think this because of the video. It's about cheating and unfaithfulness toward the person you love.

Hidden lyrics, located in the cd booklet
oh dear, her infidelity just spilled all over the floor. can somebody help her? -
I think that the song is about a man who finds out that his soon to be wife is cheating on him with one of the men at his wedding
-
I think the guy is pissed about tripping on an open door.
And Where it talks about pacing I think it means when you try and walk the pain off. Or so the little people told me. -
I believe the the groom is from the circus, and the ringleader is trying to tell him how his to be wife is cheating on him, so he sits this whole thing up.

Well at the making of they say it´s just a wedding going on and there´s a big difference between the groom´s family and the bride´s family and the cicus people interrupting are trying to make the groom see the bride´s not good for him. Then the chaos starts... as they are talking about what the main concept of the VIDEO is like, i´m not sure this is much about the songs meaning. Sure, when brendon says it´s like the groom´s conscience it does, but I still wonder what that´s got to do with ryan, who wrote this song. what made him write a song about that theme? is it a mere statement about senseless marriages or was it him or someone of his acquaintance who was betrayed like that (same question with lying is th most..., though this has got such a heart-rending melancholy it must be written with true feelings, not?)help! I want to know what it is about...!:)

Its Not From Either The Groom's, Waiter's, Or Brides POV.
Because The Groom wouldn't Be Calling His Bride A Whore, Nor Would The Bride Herself.
Since As Some Of Ryans Songs Started Out As A Story, I Think It'sJust From A Bystander's POV.
The Guest Is Pacing The Pews When He Over Hears The Brides Maid To The Waiter "What A Beutiful Wedding" Then He Thinks To Himself 'Yes, But What A Same THe Grooms Bride Is A Whore.'
-Indicating He Has Seen Or Heard Of Her Cheating.
At Some Point Before The Wedding, The Guest Leads The Groom To The Room Where The Bride Is Cheating, And Exclaims "Haven't You People Ever Heard Of Closing The God Damn Door?"
To Which The The Groom Says Sacasticly: "Oh Well Infact I, Mean Look At It This Way, Technicly Our Marrige Is Saved."
Ect. Ect. Ect.
