The vocals on this are really poor. But it's for 21 guns so it's not like it really matters.

Sorry that I wrote a song for someone that is incredibly important to me and wanted to get it tattooed? It's an important line to me, I'm sorry you don't have the mental capacity to understand what other people find important isn't the same as what you find important.

i mean if you truly don't recognize several years after the fact that permanently adorning your skin with cringeworthy lyrics that you wrote is pretty douchey (regardless of why you did it) then i genuinely pity you.

also you posted pics of it for everyone to see. did you seriously not expect to be made fun of?

If you're egotistical enough to think I posted that picture for angsty manchildren such as yourself, you really need to simmer down. I posted that picture because a while back Jacqublim asked me too because he wanted to see it.

Also the tattoo says "I swear I'd burn the fucking world, just to be able to hold you in my arms."

That's a stretch seeing as the only album on the band page has a 2.7 with 61 ratings. It also doesn't explain why you post articles about bands like blood on the dance floor.

So are you implying that I only listen to music I have at a 5/5? If so, your argument isn't valid, as I listen to quite a bit of music frequently that I have rated 3 and above.

"where was that implied anywhere"

When he said this earlier "listens exclusively to music intended for pre-teens"

Then posted a few of my 5s (not even all of them) that are known to have younger fanbases. He was attempting to imply that I only listen to a few of those.
