Beebs who have seen My Chemical Romance's live show at Maxwell's, Hoboken, raise your hands, because I am IN LOVE with it: the setlist, the crowd, and Oh my GOD, Gerard's vocals, his hair, Frank's hair, his guitar-playing, Toro's unimaginably fluffy mane and guitar-playing (he's a badass), Bob's drums (he's a hardass), EVERYTHING!!!!! >:D


I've seen TBPiD! too, ok, and it was awesomesauce, but I keep coming back to their Hoboken LS because 1) it's heartbreaking, and not in a masochistic way LOLOLOL absolutely not, there's just something special about it, and 2) have I told you about Frank's angsty lines? Poor Frank, I want to give twenty-five Year Old Frank a tight hug. :(

I'm going to attach their I'm Not Okay performance from Hoboken, and if you listen carefully you can hear my heart shattering into a million pieces:


Of coooooourse the lyrics too:
Well, if you wanted honesty
That's all you had to say
I never want to let you down
Or have you go, it's better off this way
For all the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor?
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
What will it take to show you
That it's not the life it seems? (I'm not okay)
I've told you time and time again
You sing the words but don't know what it means (I'm not okay)
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook
For the last time, take a good hard look
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out
Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you read me like a book
But the pages all are torn and frayed
I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay now (I'm okay, now)
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay! (Lie to me)
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay, I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
