For too long we have stood by and seen people of our community grow up and move on from this "phase" We are here to remind you this is NOT a phase. We will not conform - we are tired of seeing our brothers and sisters leave the black parade and become hipsters. By being Emo we are showing society that we will not adhere to the standards they have shackled us in. So, put on your skinny jeans, straighten your bangs, paint your nails black and join as we bring emo back. Once an emo, always an emo. In the words of Amy Lee, wake me up inside. i cant wake up.
