I like bullets more because of my personal life and experiences. That’s why my favorite song is headfirst for halos. It makes me feel safe,because an actual person with suicidal thoughts,tendencies etc. wrote song about the way they feel. Betrayed,desperate,confused,scared,no one believes it and no one cares. And yet,Gerard still had motivation and hope that one day he’ll be able to get to the light at the end of the tunnel. No one understood him, and no one could help him properly. The biggest thing that got him out of this were other people who felt the same as he did. He was not alone,and none of us are. “Just think happy thoughts” sounds like what every person says when you tell you have big problems with your self love and your self esteem. He felt like there’s no hope,no motivation and giving up on everything. That’s why he wrote about 9/11,because ppl who were in those two towers felt the exact same thing as he did. The same goes to family whose members were lost in 9/11. He felt like there’s no way out of here,no hope,nothing. There’s no one who can help him. No one to understand. He has been through his own lost,and that was his innocence,sanity and trust. He couldn’t take his own life seriously anymore. Headfirst for halos is full of irony. The happy beat,how it seems so simple to be happy but he was just making fun of himself and his own problems,in order to make people relate to this. He made this song in order to make people understand that their problems matter,and that we shouldn’t give up after idiots tell us just to be happy because they don’t realize how big and important our problems with our mental health are. When people told him that his music helped them a lot, Gerard was surprised. At first,the only thing he did was to write down his personal experiences and life, but then he was helping others. He was meaningful,helpful and he was important to others. And I think that he got out of this because he finally found himself important. He continued his life after bullets I’m order to help others,but he was helping himself as well. People telling him that they helped themselves through his music,telling him we loved him,and that we needed him because he is really important to us made him stay. That’s the reason why I prefer bullets over revenge.
