waht do the words mean on the mcr lyric?

Question

on my way hom eis through you song by my chemical romance who knws wat Oxycontin genocide means?

Answer 1

well, i suppose, its a typo.
It might not be Oxycontin, but maybe oxytocin.

Oxytocin is a hormone produced in the human body.

Answer 2

You'd first have to understand the scope of the song to begin with.
MCR is commenting on the wide spread abuse of prescription medications such as Oxycontin among a certain generation of abusers. (Namely their target audience of 15-34yr olds)

Then you'd have to know what Oxycontin is.
It's in the class of pain killers knowns as opioids which when abused are extremely addictive.

(If you're able to read that list, it shows that painkillers in general are the most abused class of drugs with Oxycontin being the least popular of that class)

MCR is simply writing their song to reflect only what has been written up in popular media.



Remember, MCR stands for MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE...so their songs are bound to be along those lines.
(except for their latest album which is actually a departure from their formulaic previous releases)
