The story behind the song

This song tells the story of a person's transformation into a vampire, which serves as a metaphor for resisting the daily forces of corruption. The lyrics also touch on the early signs of Gerard Way's alcoholism, his feelings of wasting his life, and feeling like a "scumbag." The band aimed for a blend of punk energy with dark themes, beginning with a lulling intro that transforms into aggressive rock. It plays like a raw, intense exploration of inner turmoil and the struggle to maintain oneself against corrupting influences.
