THE ONLY HOPE FOR ME IS YOU:

A cousin to ‘Famous Last Words’ (the most optimistic cut from ‘The Black Parade’), this song encapsulates the band’s knack for both the anthemic and the melodic. “‘Famous Last Words’ was very direct in the choruses. This one is even more direct. For me, it’s looking at the beginning of my life-which is, for me, 9/11. It’s about a lot of things, like bringing a child into the world and being worried that there’s going to be something lousy [your child] is going to have to live through.”
