"Kill All Your Friends" by My Chemical Romance
"An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind." -Buddha
It's funny, friends are supposed to be there for you,
in order to make you feel better,
but lately they are the ones making me feel horrible,
and I have been really hating all of them...

Well you can hide a lot about yourself,
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been eight bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
Sometimes you scrape and sink so low,
I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
And if this is a coronation,
I ain't feeling the love.
'Cause we are all a bunch of animals
That never paid attention in school.
So tell me all about your problems;
You're so cool,
You're so cool,
So cool!
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been nine bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
'Cause I'm still here.
You'll never get me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never get me.
(Get me!)
You'll never take me.
(Take me!)
You'll never get me alive.
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
It's been ten fucking years since I've been seeing
Your face 'round here.
And you're walking away
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that we all kill our friends, but there are times where you just get tired of them, and you really start to question why you are friends in the first place, and then you realize something...

True friendship can stand the test of time right? But sometimes it takes a tragedy to bring us closer together. And unfortunately, sometimes someone has to become a martyr.

Sometimes your best friends can feel like your biggest enemies. But what can you do at that point, except party when the funeral ends?

Alright. I actually really liked this one. I get the meaning behind it. It takes a tragedy to bring people closer together, even after a fight. And I get the whole mirror one too. I know, I'm overbearing and annoying as hell. I feel like this needed to be written. I just don't think people will find the true meaning in it at first glance. It is kind of weird :/
