Skylines and Turnstiles is a song that appears on My Chemical Romance's debut album, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love and was the first song that they ever wrote.
[edit] Origin
Gerard Way was working in New York as a comic-book artist and witnessed 9/11. He went back home to New Jersey where he called up Matt Pelissier, My Chemical Romance's former drummer, and they wrote the song about how they felt about it.
[edit] Meaning
The song is about, even after witnessing such an event, the fact that Gerard Way and others should carry on with life and do something with it in case it is taken away like the lives of those in the attacks.
