My Chemical Romance – Drowning Lessons Lyrics 13 years ago
I think this song is about a man, Gerard, who loves a woman, but she's marrying someone else. This makes him very, very angry, and he kills people and pretends they are her for revenge. But he can't actually kill her, because he loves her.

"Without a sound I took her down
and dressed in red and blue I squeezed
Imaginary wedding gown
That you can't wear in front of me"
She's engaged and fantasizes about the wedding, which Gerard will never be able to attend.

"Lets say goodbye, the hundredth time
And then tomorrow we'll do it again
Tomorrow we'll do it again"
He's killed countless, possibly hundreds of women.

"I never thought it'd be this way
Just me and you, we're here alone
And if you stay, all I'm asking for is
A thousand bodies piled up
I never thought would be enough
To show you just what I've been thinking"
She breaks up with her fiance and goes back to Gerard. He tells her about what he did, all the people he killed for her. He thinks that the reason she came back was because she knew he'd killed for her and finally understood his feelings.

"And I'll keep on making more
Just to prove that I adore
Every inch of sanity"
He's going to keep killing for her to show how much he appreciates having her in his life. Now that she is his again, his mind is clear and focused instead of being run mad/blinded by rage.

"These hands stained red
From the times that I've killed you and then
We can wash down this engagement ring
With poison and kerosene"
Like I said, before he would kill the people and pretend it was her to take out his anger.
Gerard has killed many, many people at this point. He will be discovered eventually. They cannot live a happy life together. So he suggests they should die together.
Either one of them will swallow the ring, and they'll wash it down with poison and kerosene.
"We'll laugh as we die
And we'll celebrate the end of things
With cheap champagne"
They won't be sad about their death. They're finally together.
She made the right decision.
They're glad it's over.

This was just my take on the lyrics as I was reading them, aha. Beautiful stories, the main reason I love this band!

My Chemical Romance – Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough for the Two of Us Lyrics 13 years ago
I'm pretty sure the guy broke the vanity to use the mirror to crush his pills on or whatever you need a flat surface for when it comes to drugs. But the mirror's not big enough for him AND his girlfriend so they're gonna have to break up.
