A few reminiscent quotes from…
My Chemical Romance. Oh yesh.
About: Growing up/ Being cool.
Gerard- “You know that you’re not cool, and I think it’s becoming comfortable with that that’s great. I almost hate everything that’s cool. I never wanna be cool.”
Ray- {In High school, kids like Me and Gerard…} “We were birth control!”
Gerard- “Be yourself, don’t take anyone’s s-t and never let them take you alive…”
Frank- “I was bullied in high school, I guess that was my motivation.”
Gerard- “When I was writing [the album], I was remembering how hard it was to be a 16-year-old in high school… I was this loner kid… swimming in this pit of despair, jealousy and alcoholism.”
Ray- “I once tried to impress a girl by sticking a piece of Runts Candy up my nose to look like a booger but it got stuck up there and I had to go to the nurse to get it out.”
Gerard- “I was a very angry 15 year old… I was the kid at the back of the class wearing black.”
