How has MCR changed your life?

Alright, so... I once was a really fake person. In order to cloak my emotions - to make myself what I thought was normal, I made myself abnormal and just...strange. All you have to know that instead of allowing myself to be sad, I literally ( no joke) went through my school hallways skipping and singing S-club7.
( If you have never heard of them, more power to you.) I was being horrible to myself, every negative emotion was stuffed into that bottle over and over - and yes - the bottle shattered. I had a freak out moment - and ruined my perfect good girl happy goody goody two shoes apperance with a death threat note to my best friend. Of course I only did it because she was being rude to my other friends and just causing a ton of drama I couldn't handle - but yet, you know what I did after that? I became completely silent - almost a mute. I felt horrible for expressing myself for the first time... ever really. One in school suspension, and I was convinced I was the worst child on earth. I thought I had screwed up my life, but you know what? That summer, while watching my overly happy animes, I discovered an AMV set to MCR's teenagers - and guess what happened.... I let go.

For the first time since I was a child,I let myself be me for once - that singular song changed my outlook on everything. I just became greedy for more after that and looked on youtube for more - but I only found 4 songs - which sucked. I listened to those four over and over again though, until I gave up and bought them all at best buy with the 40 bucks I got for christmas. This band has changed me, my life, and protected my sanity. It helped me to know that it is OK to be sad, to be yourself, to not like some people, to live life, and that you dont always have to agree with what everyone says. My Chemical Romance has dictated who I am, what I want my future to be, and completely changed the course of my life. I probably would have ended up in an insane asylum somewhere- not dreaming of being the bass player I want to be and helping people just like they helped me.
