What is the song "I Write Sins, Not Tragedies" by Panic! at the Disco about?

Question

Okay, i don't care about the video, what does the verse about the marriage being technically saved mean in the context of the song

Answer 1

The line "technically our marriage is saved" means he found out about the cheating before they completed their vowels, so by not getting married they don't have to get divorced. So their marriage is technically saved cause it never happened.

Answer 2

I have read some litterature about panic attacks. But they allways seem to have a more scientific approach and that is nothing I need in my struggle to survive those horrible panic attacks. This is a "hand on" and very practical book. I felt it was written to me. I am sure that you are going to feel the same.

Joe Barry writes exactly how I think. The examples are perfectly described. And the method is genius. I recommend this book and thanks Joe Barry for writing it. It changes your life

Answer 3

Well, theres a bride and a groom. On their wedding day the groom overhears people saying his bride is a whore. If you have ever seen the video, this makes a lot more sense. Brendon acts as the groom's conscience, telling him not to marry the bride. Brendon syas the groom should go back with his family (the circus people in the video). I hope i didn't confuse you.

Answer 4

well if you watched the music video youd see that the bride was cheating on her groom thats why in the beginning it says "imagine as im pacing the pews in a church corridor and i cant help but to hear an exchanging of words, what a beautiful wedding says the bridesmaid to a waiter, yes but what a shame the poor grooms bride is a whore." from then on its pretty much about how people should shut doors.

Answer 5

The song (in my opinion) is basically about a guy who is being married, and he walks in on his fiance when she is kissing ( i chimed in, havent you people ever heard of closing the G**Da** door) and i think the point Panic At The Disco is trying to get across with the painted eyelids is that every body is blind to what is happening (they have open eyes painted on their eyelids). Im not sure if this is correct, but look at this music video and decide for yourself

Answer 6

The video must be notably self-explanitory. es a individual who is conscious concerning to the brides affair with somebody else. subsequently on the top he exhibits the groom. So their marriage is "saved" because of the fact if he married her, she might have maximum probable commited adultry. So yeah

Answer 7

The song tells the story of a nervous groom who, on his wedding day, overhears two guests describing his fiancée as a whore. Feeling helpless, he tries to rationalize it, although it can be interpreted that the narrator of the song isn't the groom but the groom's conscience.

the song is about a couple getting married. the husband doesn't know that his future wife is cheating on him. that's why she a whore. people that they know, knows about the cheating girl.

"What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding!" says a bridesmaid to a waiter.
"And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore."
