HEY PETE, YOU WERE OUR ONLY FRIEND. AND I KNOW THIS IS BELATED, WE LOVE YOU BACK

Deedster · 2 months ago

thats right:)) you made me smile, thanks;)

hollypeniche · 2 months ago

this, and only this.
its amazing how many times i've felt that fall out boys music was my only friend, that petes lyrics coming from patricks mouth were my best friend, giving me words of wisdom and advice to get through it all.
i would like to thank you for that.
you deserve a break, and no matter how elongated it is, i will always be the kid who is front barrier, screaming the words that have helped me through so many situations.
it is fair to say, that you guys saved my life, and you deserve so much more than my feeble "thankyou's" and "we love you back"s.

I am seriously going to cry. Not right now because there are people around. But tonight, probably into my pillow.
I really hope I'm paranoid or this is a joke but I can't pretend my heart did not just break with every word I just read, with every comment after that. And I've been trying to prepare it for this, you know, but geez, I never imagined it would feel like someone had died. Oh and I know it's stupid. I'm stupid. I'm essentially a stranger falling apart because a group of people I've never met but only ever seen and heard once for, what? 2 or more hours? have decided to live their lives a different way.
I never imagined how tangled up everyones lives are.

And wont I feel like a moron if I spilled the remains of my heart out for no reason. More than usual.
So I do have a car crash heart after all. Fuck.

jdag422 · 2 months ago

You (person im replying to) just described my feelings exactly.

I feel like i haven't been the truest of true fans recently. It's just hard to think that you guys will basically be gone. I may not know you personally, but I feel like I just lost a friend, well four friends.

LONG LIVE THE CAR CRASH HEARTS..

i just got chills... bad chills.

melissa123456 · 2 months ago

the four of you have been there for me more than you will ever know, im
always and will always be who iam in some way because of you, your music
shaped my life in a way you wil never understand. You were always there
for me with a click of a button, and never failed me. You put your life
out there in the form of words for us to use as we please, and I have
endless thank you for that. Going to shows in chicago hearing and
talking to kids who knew and saw you guys before the 30,000 seat venues
and perez hilton posts makes me feel honored in a way, you have shaped
not only this "chicago scene" but the so called "scene" it self I am
proud to be from your original stomping grounds, your inspirational in a
way you will never get, thank you for those shows I came to where for
that 2 hours when you were on stage all four of you took away every
piece of stress and heartache in my life, it was me and the music and
nothing but. Your an amazing amazing role model and I hope kids always
for years go back to you for there "hero" status. You understand what
its like to dream and hold on to that dream forever, I will always hold
your lyrics,words and music close to me. It was the first music that
moved me and spoke to me, and evidentally changed my life. Im going to
make it in this music industry because I believe I can, I get that
confidence from four unknowns from the burbs outside of chicago just
like me.. I adore you all, thank you for all the memories and thank you
for the music.

Long live those car crash hearts.

I wish you guys the best. You gave me hope when I was shattering, made me laugh when I was crying, made me fall in love when there was nothing to fall over. It's been a fucking crazy few years for you guys. And you guys are amazing. Don't ever stop what you guys have going for you, which is a lot. Maybe one day you guys will come back together and make another record, and I'll be holding my money tight in my hand waiting for it. You're all great guys. We'll miss you.

And that is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me.

kaedence · 2 months ago

You guys (all 4 of you) have changed my life. Fall Out Boy was the first band I ever fell in love with. For this I can't thank you enough. My friends constantly tease me about how obsessed I am with music, but really it doesn't bother me because it's true. And it is all thanks to you. Hearing you guys for the first time was like being able to hear for the first time. It changed the way I looked at everything. Folie a Deux came out the day after the worst day of my life. My moms addiction to crack finally became public knowledge. It was spread through the local papers and the internet and people were sending her messages on facebook saying they were going to burn our house down while we slept inside. The day Folie a Deux came out I listened to it all the way through and half way through the (shipped) gold standard I started crying. Your lyrics were the words I was looking for but could never say

"You can only blame your problems on the world for so long
Before it all becomes the same old song
As soon as we hit the hospital, I know we're gonna leave this town
And get new passports and get get get get get out now"

I was blaming my moms addiction on the world. I kept on complaining about it. I wasn't living my life. When I realized this I just wanted to get out and start over new somewhere else. Get out of the town I grew up in that was so judgemental and unforgiving.

Thank you for saving me in my darkest hour. My love for this band may be the only true love I ever experience.

Long live the car crash hearts

Your music changed my life. Because of you, I got into the world of good music. My dream is to be a producer and you're to thank. May 6, 2006 and April 25, 2009, and May 23, 2008 were some of the best nights of my life.

Your music held me and my best friends together even if they were 4 hours between us.

The music you've created has affected how the rest of my life is going to run.
I want you to be happy first and foremost. But please, come back one day.

Sandra388 · 2 months ago

2864212 · 2 months ago

aw shucks, you're gonna make me tear up
we love you

"We fall in love with those we're protecting and curing, We dream big and then wake up everyday and hunch over computer screens... I feel like we have a vested interest in each other. It's love of sorts. You were there in the beginning. You've stuck around when everyone else climbed aboard. I hope you're there when it's gone. For all the time we've come off course you have always served as a compass. Steady. Unforgiving. At times hard to find. But you were always there... Everyone always asks what's the cure to growing up? This is it. It's you... Don't ever let me fucking forget it."
I have a copy of this that I keep under my pillow. I have insomnia and I've found that it helps me sleep at night. It means the world to me, you guys are my Rushmore. Thanks for everything Pete.
We'll miss you.

ESwee · 2 months ago

Pete... please, don't say you'll miss us, just promise to come back again another day. this is more than just a friendship, and it's more than what anyone could have seen coming, I am sure I'm not alone in saying that the complete vanishing act would cause mutually assured destruction, because as much as we have given you this place, this way of living, you have given us as much, and if possible, even more. Thanks isn't needed in words, it's been done in gestures and heartfelt goodbyes.

So goodbye, for now...
until we meet again

I know I have really been a fan of everything you guys have done. I mean I went back and listened to "Take This To Your Grave". I have enjoy each and every album you guys have made. Thanks for putting out great music!

This is making me think about "But It's Better If We Do", the make-up, the costumes.

I know you've found your dream life with a kid and wife and all... but you guys made ME dream. Now what am I supposed to do?
Believers Never Die.... but you said once before "The only rings I'll die with are the ones under my eyes" and "Maybe in some other world we'd be some hot couple, but not this one" So how in the hell do you expect me to believe the words "That's the turn, that's not the whole trick"?
I really hope that the words you said are ones you'll stick by. I want you to re-appear.

trickztr · 2 months ago

Take a break, but come back to us someday. We'll miss you guys like hell.

Dear Pete,
You probably won't ever see this, (or maybe you will, because from now on, I'm going to post this same comment every time I think about it) and you probably don't remember it anyways. BUT I wanted to say thanks. First thanks for being so awesome (the rest of the guys too), for so long. and the second thanks is for stopping "I Don't Care" in the middle of the song at the Minnesota show with blink. I was in the huge pile of people that fell. It pretty much hurt like hell. Some tall guy pulled me up, and then i helped someone else up. It was nuts. I just think it was so awesome of you to stop in the middle of the song to make sure we were okay. You guys are the best, and I've been following you since I first head "Our Lawyers Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued" on NHL '07 (that was the one right?) I've been to all the tours you've played at (except the Young Wild Things-I think that's what it was called-since you didn't play in Minnesota on that one). OCK for 3 years, and loving it. Stay awesome [FOB], you'll always be my favorite. :)

Thank YOU peter. For all the amazing lyrics and music. For being so good to us fans . For everything <3

I'm going to miss you & patrick, andy & joe, for every second you're gone. You need the break though & I hope you enjoy it. I'm just hoping it's not going to be a never-ending break. But even if it was, I'll always love you four & your music.

The feather make-up is awesome .

A loss for words? but you've always been the one who could write what everyone else wished they could about how they feel and their lives. Fall Out Boy will always be my number. For many many years, you were the only thing I had. Music will follow you anywhere. When youre sad, were sad. When you smile, we smile. Youre this generations perfect hero. We need you guys, Pete. Take your break but don't forget about us, and how we feel while you ran around the stage playing your heart out.

I've never felt how I feel when I see you guys live, its a combination of joy, pride, proud, love, and happy crying. We have unconditional love for you. Enjoy your time with your family, but just remember....we're family too.

"the kids you used to love, but then we grew old."
we grew up with you.

Well peter,

I never got to see you run around on stage but I felt like I was always welcome. Like I really was a friend. You give me a voice in all your art and all your life and all you do.

So know that I meant it when i say the same two words back to you.

Thank you.

MegLizzy · 2 months ago

pete, the performance tonight was beyond amazing.
Before we were let in, the OCKs were drawn to eachother, it was quite amazing how that happened. It felt like something amazing before we were even inside.
I drove from Vegas to see you guys tonight. And I was expecting one song, and that was all I could ask for, one more night, and one more time, its truly how I felt. It didnt matter, I just wanted to feel the happiness again.

"whos excited to see fall out boy!? We have a surprise for you! Theyre gonna play a whole set!"
I started crying. I was sooo happy. I was shaking with excitement, I guess that happens when youre as naturally dorky & as fob dorky as me.
As soon as I Dont Care started, I tried to run into the pit, but security stopped me, so I just stood there on the bottom step, and that didnt stop me from singing my heart out and smiling like a clinically insane person. Im pretty sure you saw cuz Im pretty sure you laughed at me.
Then security moved me, and like 2 minutes later
"this is gonna be our last show for a while."
of course, again, I start crying. Not just because that was a sentence that like killed me, but because now I was stuck all far away and shit :/
"everyone come down here! Get on the stage! Everyone get down here!"
I HAVE NEVER RAN SO FAST IN MY LIFE. I got to the front in like 5 seconds. I completely lost myself in the moment. Never have i gotten so into a show, into a song, into a moment. Im standing there jumping, screaming, singing at the top of my lungs, crying, but with the biggest smile on my face. And I can honestly say, it was one of the best moments of my life.

My point here is, you dont need to be able to say thank you in words. The way FOB made me feel tonight, and the way youve made us all feel is enough. And hopefully, the smiles and tears from the few OCKs in the crowd were enough of our way to show you how we say thank you the best way we can.

Also, thanks for totally stagediving on my face, it was great. :P

p.s... you've thanked us enough

"hey. here i am 35,000 feet off of the ground writing to you. i will upload this when i land i guess. i'm not even too sure what i am writing for. not breaking new ground or breaking down. just maybe i need to take a break from getting on here so much cause i tend to run my mouth/heart without thinking too much about it. sometimes i need (alright alright) slow down. anyway. all of the growth and changes get to me too. i guess everyone says you get what you wished for. but this was never a genie in a lamp for me. it's always just been me and my bestfriends. and sometimes it feels weird inside like being pulled apart. and maybe people like my smile and patricks voice and joe's spins and how nice andy is or they hate how short i am and i can't think of any of the stuff anyone hates about the other boys but i've heard it- and it just feels weird, cause we never did this thing so it would become what it has. we always just wanted to sit in between the speakers in your bedroom and spin you to sleep. and these kids are my bestfriends. we talk about sometimes just disappearing off of the face of the planet and just doing something else. and everyone kind of laughs but just for a minute it sounds like the best idea. we are so happy and in love with everyone who has stuck it out with us. and i'm SOrry if i seem distant at times, my head is just filled with ideas, good and bad- its funny when you keep letting the same person get to you over and over and over and over- i'll try and be better. after having my livejournal hacked, i kind of decided maybe i need to take a break from just sitting on the internet and trying to decipher every little thing out there and at the same time drop coded messages everywhere. anyway, more than anything. i just wanted to thank you for helping me bloom and become a better person, or at least want to become a person that you could actually look up to. its time to be the dreamer instead of the dream///

talk to you soon.
i am going to go read the entire new harry potter book right this second.

As I have said before, and I'll say it again: I was right to have made you guys my favorite band and I will never ever regret saying that because it is true...Without Fall Out Boy my life would be dull...I wouldn't have anything to look forward to...I wouldn't have anything to smile about everytime...Your songs are my lullaby...

Oh god, I feel like crying right now...You guys will always have a special place in my heart...

Always know that whenever you're ready to come back...we'll be here waiting for you...Take a break as long as you want, just promise us that you'll come back...WE NEED YOU...WE LOVE YOU...

Well, we'll still be here waiting in 50 years time, so it's not REALLY goodbye, now is it? I'm sure you won't be able to resist coming back out on stage, knowing you guys and the thrill of a show that will forever be nagging at the back of your mind, even when you're sitting in a retirement village. And please do!

Maybe I'll even scream them in the park. You guys are the best. Please don't say this is goodbye... or else I won't have anything else to live for. You guys made me realize what good music was... and now I'll never be able to except that you guys are gone when you leave.

There are always chances to be back again just live life the way things come at you and see what there is to be offered.
And if that is directed towards fans and the guys in the offices who made all your dreams come true, then your welcome. Enjoy living.

i cant believe its been 4 years. ever since i heard 'sugar' ive been hooked. ive met some of my best friends because of you guys. i wrote my college essay on you guys. discovered my hero through you guys. from schrute farms & almost having my leg chopped off ("theirs no crying in baseball") to my friends & i somehow getting into the mayors inaugural ball to the today show appearance the day of my prom which turned into the longest day of my life & to getting into a m&g i shouldnt have gotten into, thanks for giving me some of the best stories & memories for a lifetime because everything i did for it was all worth it. the hours spent in a car, sleeping on sidewalks, the sweat & tears, for you boys it will always be worth it. we'll be waiting.

The_Megan_Jo · 2 months ago

I don't think anything I say will make me feel better about this situation. You have honestly changed my life. I can't and don't want to think about what my life would be like without your influence. Like everyone else said, I'm just a stranger who you'll probably never meet, but you have no idea how much you have affected me. I will always remember the nights of your concerts, the anticipation, the sweat, losing my voice, and screaming the lyrics of my absolute favorite songs right along with Patrick. I really hope that this is more of a hiatus than a goodbye, but if this is goodbye, I want you to know how much I will miss you guys and most of all, your music.

Thank you for everything.

I will miss you guys so much. You seriously helped me through some really tough times with your amazing music. I don't want to think how hard it would have been without your amazing influences. I really hope that this isn't goodbye for good. Please come back, and carry on helping people with your inspiration.
I love you all.

maddieguy · 2 months ago

I grew up in winnetka listening to your music at a very impressionable age. It's safe to say you made me the person I am today. You have no idea how many friends I have made through your music and the events I have celebrated and mourned in your words. The countdowns to your shows haven't stopped since junior high, and now they are officially over. But now I'm almost 20, and everyone around me is saying it's time move on. But how can I forget the music, people, and experiences that raised me? Thanks for raising me. Come back to the 60xxx soon. We are waiting. Afterall, you are a homeboy.

I cant beleive that this is it! Wether its a break or not.

You opened my eyes to a different genre! And there after i supposed shaped my life.

Thanks for the music xxx

squishy216 · 2 months ago

6th grade was when I first heard you guys and got hooked. Junior high was a tough, awkward time for me and I had you guys to help me through it. I listened to you guys every night before I went to bed and if I was ever pissed off or sad (which happened a lot back then) I would have you guys to drown everything out. I listened to all your CDs on my first road trip and sang my heart out through each one. There will always be a place for you guys. And a place on my body, once I get "long live the car crash hearts' tattooed on me :P Thank YOU for everything, and I really do hope this isn't the end. And I hope one day, I can play music and write lyrics that millions of people can relate to just as you guys have done. You guys are my heroes <3

mackenzie s. · 2 months ago

I understand you guys need a break, and I respect that (probably more than you will ever know)... but, at the same point, I don't want you guys to go any where. I love Fall Out Boy and I have since I was 9. I'm 17 now, and I'm honestly not so sure how I would/could handle you guys breaking up.

I want you guys to enjoy this 'break'. I want you to go spend time with Bronx and Ashlee. I want Joe to get married (and if is going to get married during this 'break', there better be pictures :D) and to spend time with his wife. I want Patrick to go do whatever the fuck he wants to do, as long as it makes him happy. I want Andy to do the same. I just want you guys to be happy... so if this break is what you need, then take it.

Just promise me this... Just promise me you won't forget, and this won't be forever. This feels like a break up letter... so in the spirit, I hope we can still be friends; let's hang out some time; and it's not (yo)us, it's you(s)... if that made any sense.

Alphadog is amazing by the way. I still am in love with every record (including IOH) you boys (excuse me, MEN) have put out over the years. Your fans, the diehards (you know, the ones your hearts beat for)... we're still here. I can't speak for every fan Fall Out Boy has, but for the ones I know, we'll still be here when you guys are ready to come back. With our stupid car crash hearts and all (I say stupid, because it's making me tear up).

xoxoxo

p.s. I know this might be belated, but uh, we love you back. <3

kellz · 2 months ago

We'll miss you too, perhaps more than you'll maybe ever know. You're so much better than you think, you're not a bad bass player, you don't write whiny lyrics. You play with every ounce of yourself and give nothing less in what you write. You make me want to be something and someone better. You make me want to keep going. So many times in recent years have I wanted to call it quits, and I will just listen to one of your songs; and I don't feel perfect, I don't feel bliss, but I feel I can try to make it through. I'm so grateful to have seen you guys live this March, as I don't know when or if I'll have another oppurtunity. We are the car crash hearts, and words escape us to describe how eternally grateful we are to you, Andy, Patrick and Joe. Thanks for the memories, they were much more than great. Stay away for as long as you need, as long as you want, don't let the feak outs get you down, because although it's very sad, you deserve this, and never let anyone tell you otherwise. Never let anyone persuade you that you're a douche with too much makeup and not enough talent, because they're wong. And in a way, you're wrong. You should know deep down, you've given meaning and hope to thousands of kids, and you are a hero. You are my hero. I can't say it enough or even coherently explain what Fall Out Boy means. More than a band, more than four midwest dorks. You're a part of us forever, and we're honoured to be thanked by you. This place may be only ours, but its magical. All my love and respect, Kelly.

dear pete:

you and your 4 friends from chicago always kept my car crash heart beating. some people didn't understand it. how i could love people i never met.and if this is the end i will still have your cherished memories to keep me warm at night. Your music is my one savior and protector of my inner most feelings and thoughts. part of my heart is broken but i know you are humans and you have a family to take care of. Go out into the regular world now. enjoy bx and all the fun times and memories you will have. Good luck in everything and i will be here when you get back. Along with the rest of us.

see ya on the flip side

Erica · 2 months ago

Pete,
I just wanted to thank you. I've only been a fan for the last year, and partially it's because of your wife. I want to say thank you because this year has been one of the hardest years of my life because of several different things going on in terms of my family as well as starting a new school, and your music and your words have helped me through so much. Whether it was listening to any of your songs or cds, or reading your words on this blog or on twitter, it helped so much. It helped me believe that things would one day be okay again, and that not every single time in life is perfect. I want to say thank you because over the summer, I got to see you twice. Once on May 5th and the other was August 8th. My best friend went with me to both, and going...and sitting in line, waiting out the rain were two of the best days of my summer and those experiences even brought me and my "bestie" even closer than ever. And meeting you August 8th, even if it was only brief made me see that maybe, in someway, on some level you're just like us. You are just like us. You're Pete. I want to thank you for just being you, and being part of the best band in world to me. I want to thank you for opening me up to new music (Hey Monday, Cobra Starship, Gym Class Heroes and the like.)

Not that it matters, but I'm okay with the fact that you guys are going on a hiatus. Take as much time as you need. Spend a zillion hours with that cute little boy of yours, because lets face it...they don't stay that little for long. I just wanted to say thank you...and maybe it's because I just bombed a midterm @ school, but I'm even shedding a few tears. I know they'll be worth it when/if you guys come back.

sigh. i wont think of this as a last goodbye. i think we all know fall out boy deserved a break, and the fall out boy we know isnt over yet. i know theyll come back. i just dont know what im going to do until that happens.
im gonna stop crying now. :) or ill try. its so hard to explain what they mean to me, but you fans out there, you know that feeling. that feeling where you're forever grateful.
i guess my prayers were answered over the years. i have felt so lost, so alone, and FOB was right there, living and growing up with me. i didnt realize it, but now i do. they are the definition of me, in a way.

jessi__t · 2 months ago

i am not going to cry. there are those moments where you are so touched you can't cry and can barely breathe. thats exactly what this is.

As many people here have said, Fall Out Boy has been my everything. No matter what shit happened i knew that there would always be Fall Out Boy, Your music would always be there for me to blast dangerously loud just to keep my sanity. Its stopped me from doing many things i would really regret. I it wasn't for Fall Out Boy i wouldn't be here. If i was here i wouldn't be in one piece, physically and especially mentally. So thank you, immensely.
Pete, you especially. I look up to you more then you may ever know. You were the kid who they thought wouldnt make it, but you did. And even though sometimes people only care about your misses, your hits are inspiring. thank you pete, and the rest of fall out boy, for everything

and i wont believe this is permanently the end until you say the six words that could be the end of me " Fall Out Boy is over, forever"

Amy · 2 months ago

Two years is way to long. I've been a fan of fall out boy since the beginning, and this honestly breaks my heart and I want to cry. You guys have been my backbone when my bestfriends weren't even there for me. You were my voice when I had nothing left to say. You're an inspiration pete, because of you my dreams are huge. When I enter the music production business, it's because of you, pat, andy and joe. Meeting you was two of the best days of my life. I'll never forget when you said I had nice teeth, and that I was fucking awesome. I'll never forget the almost 15 times i've seen fall out boy. You guys changed my life... and you changed it for the better.

i love youuuu=]

hahanichole · 2 months ago

You guys mean the world to me. You guys mean more then you will ever even know. You inspired my past five years of life. You are the reason why I am who i am today. You guys are the reason why the way i see life is a huge difference. i honestly dont know what i will do without you around for awile. I want to cry. I am going to cry, tonight, in my pillow, and remember all the things you have done to change my life. i will remember you when you were little, not sure about anything. I will always remember you guys in almost everything I do.
Pete, you think down on yourself way too much, like this morning when you got that named for one of musics greatest mentors, you think you dont deserve it. you dont think you deserve anything, but you do. me and the rest of your fans know you do because we have seen you throughout the years and you are an amazing guy. dont ever give up on me. dont ever leave, vanish from the world. dont ever look down on your self... dont ever say never... and remember your fans close close to your heart....
we will all be waiting for that concert when you return. it may be months, it may be years, hopefully not decades, but if it is... i will wait for you....

xoxo

Tonight the headphones will deliver us the words that you can't say. Tonight is all about "WE MISS YOU."

Here's to the one who could write it better than we ever felt it, and to the guys who lived like living was going out of style. You're known for your hits, not your misses, you're the chemists who've found the formula to make our hearts swell and burst. In our memories you are golden, and we'll be anxiously awaiting your return.

We're the die-hards, and our hearts beat for you. Long live the car crash hearts.

Danielle Hall · 2 months ago

Thanks for all of it. You guys didn't have to do it. Thanks for the gift. Thanks for my sanity. Thanks for the love. Thanks for the compassion. Thanks for the sympathy. Thanks for seeming to care when no one else bothered to pretend.

I'm not gonna be corny and say "Thanks for the memories." No, but I will be corny and say that tonight the headphones will deliver the words I need to hear. And that you guys really are therapists pumping through speakers.

I'm also not going to go on about "how much your music meant to me". You can figure that one out on your own, you know how it feels. You were 14 once, too. But I will say that Pete Wentz, Patrick Stump, Andrew Hurley and Joe Trohman are amazing people. No, I don't know them. No, I don't think know them. I don't even know if they actually care about all the fans or if it's just an act. But I do know that 99.9% of those fans have had a major improvement in their lives, because of the above mentioned people.

So thank you. It was fun while it lasted, but I guess every ride comes to an end. And now I guess we're left with the songs and the smiles and the tears and that nauceous feeling in our stomachs, because we know it's over (feel free to quote me). So, I guess I'm rambling now. Let's wrap this up.

Fall Out Boy was always there for us to call on. I'm eager to return the favor, and I'm sure I speak for that 99.9% mentioned earlier. So you ever wanna come back and call on some fans, we'll be there.

With love, admiration and tears splashing down onto my keyboard,
Danielle Hall

Of course we're all going to miss this, and I know you will, but this is only the beginning. You're only 30! Live your life, enjoy family and friends, and hopefully this won't be the end. I know I'm some kid you don't even know and probably never will, but words of encouragement are always nice. We all love you and can't wait to see what you do next. Just don't ever forget the memories (thanks for the memories!) and friends you have met upon the way. I know you never will, but your experiences in life make you who you are. You have to be able to make the right decisions, not for anyone else, but for YOU.


Remember: What you do does not define who you are. Who you are defines what you do.

We're all so very proud of you, Mr. Pete.

I don't know why but dispite not knowing you, I feel like you're such a honest person. I like to read what you write because it really seems sincere. Because you say what you think, what you believe, what you feel. And even with all the criticism it doesn't silence you. It's nice to see the "relationship" you have with your fans and how you don't take it for granted. In the same way you wanna thank, I bet there are a lot of people who wants to thank you too.

adskfjaldjk · 2 months ago

I still can't believe this is true. I don't know where I would be without you guys. As almost everyone else has said, you have affected my life in so many ways. Each of your songs can fill all my moods. They remind me of events that happened in my life. Whether it was the song i had on repeat one hot summer night of my graduation to the songs that would calm me down when i was in the worst moods because of him. They made me feel real. It seems as if youre the only band that can have such a strong connection with your fans. None of my friends understand. No matter how much i would drive them crazy just to explain to them how much we all care, they would never understand. And I guess that made me feel good. Pete, you and the band have given me something to hold on to. Something that made me feel special that I never want to let go of. Even though it still hasn't sunk in, I will forever love you guys, even if people may think im just another crazy fan. You've taught me so much about life and changed my outlook on things. I wouldn't have gotten this far without you. Words cannot explain how much I love you guys.

Please, PLEASE don't forget about us and fade away. As stupid as it sounds, sometimes I need these journal entries and moments like this to remind me. We need you more than you know..

Flamingsword · 2 months ago

Now I'm finally toeing the waters of live music, you're going to stop touring? Well, shit. The plan of working my way up to large venues in the hopes of one day seeing you and MCR has probably failed. :( ... You're not going to stop blogging, are you? I would actually miss this place. Kind of a lot.

But you can step out of the limelight now and go play with your kid. Make sure he grows up loved and secure, all that dad stuff. And in case you decide to never make music or blog publicly again: thank you. The music was worth the $50, the trolling and talking with people here was worth buying the Gabe shirt, the insights into human nature were worth the puzzling over you I've done. You were worth it.

cXrcrXshedheXrt · 2 months ago

pete, im legit crying right now. please dont leave us. as you can see from the 150ish comments, we ALL need you. it might be selfish for us to be telling you how to live your life, but creating music isnt just for the creator. its for the listener. it doesnt just express and empower the creator. it helps the listener feel expressive, and help them out in times of need.
let me just say that i have literally been with you guys since the beginning. i got take this to your grave less than a week before it came out, and iv been in love with fob ever since. you guys changed my life, and i will always support you. i understand that becoming a big shot and raising your kid is important, but so is living up to your potential and your talent, which you have a SHIT TON of. i understand taking a break, but not a permanent one. you were obviously built for the spot light.
im a die hard car crashed heart, and i will keep on defending you, the band, and your legacy for as long as i live.

whoops, *i got take this to your grave less than a week AFTER it came out.
but nonetheless, stay together for the kids. learn a lesson from the band you were just on tour with.

ClandestineHearts · 2 months ago

i realized i should post another comment.

Thank you very much for everything you and patrick, joe and andy have done. You've helped me through my life. When ever someone in my family has a problem i just get my ipod and play fob and i can always fell better. wow. it's been great, i hope the isn't the end but if it is, its been a great journey. im probably not making sense. i'm choking up and words i want to type are jumbling so i better shut up. But i will always remember when i saw you guy on tour. it was amazing i was crying and laughing at the same time. love you guys

Long live the car crash hearts ~ Believers never die. You guys came pretty far for just 4 tired boys in a broken down van. I guess the world was waiting for you guys <3

This isn't goodbye. This is just...see you tomorrow. Goodbye...thats way to definate. Believers Never Die, so I'm going to live forever. You will too. You, Patrick, Andy, Joe, all of you as Fall Out Boy. 'Car Crash Hearts' and 'We love you back''s till the very end. If this is goodbye, though, I think I'm going down with you. And if it isn't, and that day comes another day, I'll be right there, fighting till the very end, ready to go down in flames with you. When you're 50 and still look 18 with your skinnies and guyliner, I'll be there. You mean so much, and you'll never even know. I couldn't count the times on one hand that Fall Out Boy has saved me. That you, in particular, have saved me. The Boy With The Thorn In His Side is my go-to book when I'm having one of my 'episodes' where the depression gets so hard to bear that I can't breathe and can't think and I'm closest to jumping. And I read that book, and I feel like I can relate. That maybe I'm not the only one like this. And it gives me hope. Also, the line "You put your eyes to the sun and say 'I know your only blinding to keep back what the clouds are hiding'" is so relatable. I think, maybe, you wrote, with that line, your auto-biography, and maybe a few other people's too. But, to sum this all up, Fall Out Boy will never die. There are more that a million fans out there, dilligently keeping it alive. "This is cliche and trite, but it is YOURS. Don't sleep"

Pete,

The first time I read this post I was at school (since I am only 16) and I knew I couldn't cry then but now I'm home and just about to sleep and the tears are flowing freely now.

So many people have already posted what I want to say those people are
'tttyg' 'lysia' 'melissa123456' 'Princessp1193' 'jude' 'sandra388' 'atownjoe' 'peroxideprinces(s)' 'xXFa11OutA11iXx' 'ClandestineHearts' 'pet2unya'
and well basically everyone who posted but these posts stand out to me most.

As I read you post I got chills down my spine and Goosebumps. I really don't know how I will live with out you guys. Yeh that may sound over dramatic but your songs, your words, your music got me though the hardest times of my life when I felt like I had nothing left to live for I lived for music. It feels honestly like the world is collapsing around me for the end of an era for an era I felt part of.
And I regret that I never managed to see you guys live (because of the fact I live in England, and no where near a big venue).
I am who I am because of your music and I couldn't have asked for anything better than the words you gave to the world, no one has ever given me more than you. And the next few weeks and months trying to get my head around this will be some of the hardest but at least I will still have you sounds, the ones I grew up with that I love so much.

'Car Crash Hearts' and 'We love you back’s’ till the very end. If this is the end, if this is goodbye I think I'm going down with you. And if it isn't, and well, if that day comes another day, I'll be right there, fighting until the very end, ready to go down in a burst of flames with you. You mean so much, and you'll never even know.
'Of all the gin joints in all the world' and when 'the take over, the breaks over' I will be there waiting.
I hope this will be more like a break, a vacation if you like, rather than a goodbye. I can't do goodbyes; I learned that the hard way, please say, "see you soon" not "goodbye". I’m hoping not for ‘sophomore slump’ but for ‘comeback of the year’


LONG LIVE THE CAR CRASH HEARTS! ~BELIEVERS NEVER DIE! <3

Love always,

Fall Out Boy. The first band I ever loved, ever since I was 12. Your music inspired me to go into music. It completes me. Your music is apart of me, and always will be. I remember the first song I ever listened to was Sugar, We're Going Down, and I'd blast it in my room all day. I remember earlier this year when me and my friend Christina went to your costume. Best fucking night of my life.
If Fall Out Boy ever died, I die right along.

pete,
all your words make me die inside(a good way, i suppose). from your lyrics to your posts, it's truly unbelievable.
us fans will be here when you come back, you can count on us.

you have saved my life with your words. i can safely say, after dancing around to Pretty in Punk in my cousin's room after Christmas, i was hooked on Fall Out Boy. Hopefully this isn't a forever goodbye, you guys deserve a break. Because hell, no one wants to think about the end of Fall Out Boy.
After my best friend had been killed in an accident, I locked myself in my room for weeks with only my iPod pouring your lyrics throughout my brain and ears. You helped me get through it. Your music has inspired me to play guitar and let my feelings out on lyrics instead with my razorblade.
I would thank you a million times, but hell, you'd get annoyed and I'm too ADD. But even those million thank you's, wouldn't even cover the half of it.
thanks for being here, through headphones, concerts, clandestine, etc.

stay golden.

Pete, every word you have written and spoken has meant so much to me and always will. You and the rest of FOB are more than just a band to us. You are real people with real lives and I know we all feel privledged just to be accepted into that. And I think whatever makes you happy, makes us happy.
Long live the car crash hearts.

michellejasper · 2 weeks ago

ive heard its more of a vacation than a goodbye. like, theyll be back in 2 years. kind of like the time distance between FUCT and IOH. im pretty sure they know they cant just stop, they are well aware of how strongly we feel about them, yknow?

its just that theyve devoted 10 years of their lives to making music, and they deserve to have time off.

i cant handle a goodbye, you cant handle a goodbye, fall out boy cant, either.
so its just a break, time to breathe.

Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?

But believers never die...so how does being a widow work, hm?

Pete Wentz, I never got the chance to tell you thank you. It still doesn't mean as much on the internet, and everyone constantly tells you thank you, but seriously...you have no idea what you, Andy, Patrick and Joe have done for this kid. Five years ago I heard my first Fall Out Boy song. Five years ago I got my life back. You have no idea how much your music literally saved me from my horrible side of the family, my fake friends, and most importantly myself. Insomnia doesn't exist when I play a random FOB song. Nor am I able to get out of bed faster than when your therapy pumps through my speakers.

Words, written or spoken, will never be able to properly express my gratitude for you. I sincerely owe you my life. I would, for the sake of being cliche (and about 70% honest), take a bullet for you...but kid, the bullets dodge you.

Thank you so much. So. Much. And don't pretend you ever forgot about me. And never fight fair. And long live the car crash hearts. And I can almost see the wizard through the curtain...

Well, you know, basically every cliche lyric you've ever written. :)

Don't forget to spend extra time with your wife and baby.

PaloverzGrrrr · 2 months ago

I am so very proud to be able to call Fall Out Boy my favorite band. Pete, your music has spoke to me like none other. You guys made me who I am today. I have started to learn to play bass because of you. I've always liked your music, but the day you became my favorite band was when I saw you on the Today Show a few years ago. When i saw FOB at the Blink 182 concert this summer i screamed louder than i ever had. It was my first time seeing you perform and it was amazing. I hope FOB doesn't break up, but you guys do deserve a break. You've been going non-stop for so many years. I own every cd and soon I will be the proud owner of the Greatest Hits album (even though it seems too early to have one). No matter what happens I will always be an Overcast Kid. The pictures on my walls will never come down, they will only be added to. If you guys break up I will be heart broken, but I have a feeling that even though you're taking a break we will see more of you guys very soon. I keep telling myself that you're just playing a big joke on us all saying that you're are taking a break or breaking up, but then you'll come back with an awesome cd and hugee world tour. A small part of me says "I have bought my last FOB cd", but an even bigger part says "They'll be back very soon". I turned 16 on Oct. 5th, and on my birthday cake is FOB! I love you guys, you're awesome!
Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee? Don't pretend you ever forgot about me. Never fight fair. I don't care what you think as long as it's about me. Tonight the headphones will deliver you the words I can't say. Every cliche lyric you've ever written (I love them all) =)
I'll miss you while you're gone, but you're welcomed back with wide open arms (hopefully sooner rather than later).

I just have the need to read this over and over again. Like I have the need to listen to fall out boy songs over and over again. you guys are amazing you've had impacts in lifes of
people you don't even know
and you should be proud
whatever happens to the band
wether if you keep rocking together, you take your own ways or just take a break, you will always be a band, fall out boy, our hearts will always beat at the rythm of your amazing songs. your names will always be present on our thoughts, on our hearts. now I feel I'm being a bit cheese, Like I never am.
But you guys give me hopes. with your lyrics your music
your performances.
It's something I can't explain. I have to admit when I heard you guys were taking a break, I thought you were just breaking up as a band, you just fell apart and I was really mad, because waiting for new songs, for new hopes and new quotes Is what I live for.

Whether this is simply about shaving your hair or something more deep, like FOB breakin up, I love you, Pete, and Patrick, Andy, and Joe, too. I listen to FOB in my worst moments and it feels like every single one of you guys is standing in front of me acting as a protective wall against the world, and when I listen to FOb in my best moments, it just makes me happier. If this is a break-up message and a farewell, I've enjoyed my time as diehard FOB fan, and I will remain a die hard until the day that I die. Every FOB concert I've been to was a new experience for me. HCT was my first FOB concert...YWT was my first time meeting you, Pete...BND2 was my first time in the pit...and the Blink tour was my first meeting all of FOB, and I must say I'm really happy that I met you guys before you decided to go your different ways, you guys were seriously the coolest and down to earth dudes I've met. But I'll keep my fingers crossed that one day you guys will come back to your fans...more as a kick stand than hope...but in the meanwhile, if you read this, please pass my love on to the other three dudes...I love you and thank you.

I just wanted to thank you, and of course the rest of FOB, for making me

love you guys, and your music, you have inspired me to write, and to
just be myself, pete, youre one of my 'rolemodels' in life, not because,
youre some rich rockstar and that crap, but because I, like many other
fans out there, now what you stand for, what fob stands for too, you inspire
people to keep on going, really, Im sure everyone here loves you, just like
me, and many other fans that have supported fob,
PeterPanda, promise us that you will come back, please, come back,
we will wait for you guys,
ThankYou,

but not forgetting about, how all my worst
fears are letting out, he said why put a new
adress on the same loneliness?, when
breathing just passes the time, until we all
just get old and die, now talking's just a waste
of breath, and living's just a waste of death,
and why put a new adress on the same old
lonelines? and this is YOU and ME, and
ME and YOU, until we've got nothing LEFT!"

i’m not going to write a novel explaining everything you’ve done for me, because i know there’s still so much more you’re going to do. no matter how much nostalgia you soaked this post in, i’m not saying goodbye.

but give me five minutes to ramble, and then i’ll be out of your clean shaven hair.
i hate to sound cliche, but your music has honestly saved me. and i know it sounds creepy, but i kind of think of you guys as my best friends. your music has gotten me through some of the hardest shit of my life, and is literally the reason why i’m still breathing today.

yeah, i’m a die hard.
i’m the kind of girl who can’t go to sleep without reading the boy with the thorn in his side. i’m that kind of girl who was in tears before the first song of your set was over. i’m the girl who, i won’t deny, felt pretty damn proud when bronx was born.
and yes. i heard patrick’s voice and realized then and there that no other singer was ever going to be able to compare. i played take this to your grave until my own mother considered herself a fan.

so no. hiatus is not synonymous with goodbye.
all of you - go fall in love, go watch your kid grow, go cook something with mom. we’ll be here when you get back.

I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that you four boys are the best people I could ever look up to. Crazy and insane as it sounds, you helped shape me. I wouldn't be the person I am today. In fact I may not even be alive.

In "...B-side to my tongue." you said that you wanted to create a cd that is never ending- one that when you listen to it, you don't skip any songs.
Well Pete, your whole band is the equivalent to that wish. There isn't a song I hate or that I skip when it comes through my speakers.
You were right when you said you could write it better than I felt it. I never thought anyone else felt the way I was feeling when I found you almost 5 years ago.

You helped me believe I could go on.
And I did.

Peter, Patrick, Joe, Andy. These names will always mean something to me.
Go have the best "Summer Vacation."
Go and achieve every dream you have.

When you come back, we will be here, eager to hear the stories and experiences you will have. We will be up late at night asking where you have been, and when you simply reply with "having fun" and a kiss on the cheek, we will forgive you.

Have the times of your lives. We did.

pete please just tell us we are overreacting like always. Or taking it too far. We all love you and would all be lost and alone without you guys. I cant even imagine what would happen if Fall Out Boy stopped doing what they do best <3 However, just in case, id like to say thank you for this journey. It was great. But we arent done with it yet. And I know you guys arent ethier. Im listening to the end of what a catch donnie right now and I know this can't be it. Theres too much magic left. I'm Sooo cliche right now I know, but i want to express how much we all love you. My friends and I have been on so many adventures with you guys. We were all at the believers never die tour in CT and felt the magic you guys portray on stage. We were close to the stage, so seeing you guys standing right in front of us was surreal. And I know youve heard this a million and ten times before, but it had a huge impact on us. When saturday started playing at the end I was at a loss of words.

Anywho, Im rambling now but please please please dont go anywhere. And no matter how much we want you to stay with us, well support any decision you make. We love you soooo much. <333333

fall out boy will always be my favorite band. and i'll be there screaming every word to every song the next time you play. you're kind of a hero to me pete. =]
i may not have been a fan since take this to your grave. i may have jumped a little late on the bandwagon [i'll never forget the first time i heard sugar we're going down]. but i'm a die hard, because i never thought you were a "sell out", i never thought you were some kind of false person, i thought fall out boy was awesome. to me your music is more genuine then some other bands claim to be. the stage, the lights, the arena, the fans, the music, the words, it IS ours. and i'm glad to have seen you play this past summer. it was the best night of my life.

i don't know how long you'll "be gone", but it doesn't matter. cause we'll ALL still be here. =]

Yes, I'm just another fan. I don't know what is happening, I mean, Pete, one day you said that FOB will take a vacation, then the other day you told us about some songs or things like that. You can't imagine how hard is this.

Your music will never die. FOB can't die. Your lyrics, you know that you're the BEST writter of all this fucking world. The songs are so contagious, you were an original band. You just can't imagine how you've changed my life. I can't find the perfect words to tell you ALL that you meant to me. So, I have nothing more to say that "thank you". Thank you for all the moments that I was sad, all the times I heard your songs and I felt like you understood me. Thanks for that, thanks for made me smile with your videos :), and for being my obsession, fobsession.

And I'm gonna miss all of this. But I will wait forever.

there is no other band that has or will ever have touched my heart the way fall out boy did.
we love you guys. and even if you decide to come back in 10, 20 years, or maybe not at all, just know that we will be here still, as faithful as ever.
at least, i will be.
your lyrics, and Patrick's soulful voice, is what kept me going when i really needed it the most. so thanks for being there, even when you didn't know you were.

I'm gonna miss you guys so bad. You were the ones who sang me to sleep through my bedroom speakers.
Your lyrics inspired me, amazed me, moved me...
I can't wait for you to come back, so I can see you live and cry and scream like the fangirl I am.
Till then, good luck to all of you. (:

I highly, highly, highly doubt you'll read this. But, here goes;

I may not have lasted through some life crisis thanks to you four, I may have not met you, and I may have not learnt every single word to your songs even though i've known about you guys since your early days (shameful, really).

But thanks a lot.

Third Eye Blind gets it.

I guess you get it too, in a way. You've just about been where I am right now, 8 years ago or so, atleast. Maybe one day me and my band might end up like you boys, saying goodbye (hopefully temporarily) to the industry after a solid 4 albums, (some less satisfying than others, might I add). Maybe thousands of fans will be crying over us too.

Sure you dont play your bass correctly (I really had to put that out there), maybe you drag on a little to much about some things too. But you seem like a decent guy, and you make exceptionally great music, and write exceptionally great lyrics. So, thanks a lot.

This might just be a waste of time, but there's no one I'd rather waste my time with

Honestly Pete, I don't know what you are truly trying to say here. I've heard so many things lately about FOB or you and I just don't know what to believe. If this is meant to say that FOB is over I want to thank you for opening my eyes to something great and amazing. If you and the rest of FOB are going on a nice long vacation away from show biz, I hope you have fun. I know you all worked hard as hell to get where you are. So yeah. I don't where you're going from here when it comes to FOB and such, but thanks man.

Dear Peter,

You made me believe again and I will never, ever give that up.
Even in my most jaded times, I'll still have hope.
Because even though I am alone physically, out there, I know there are others like me who can't sleep, can't dream and can't love. I see in you someone who made it past these things. I see a small glimmer of hope my weary head wants to translate into something meaningful and it does rightly so.
Every dog has it's day, right?
You four were the reason I immersed myself in music. The rawness of the words. The impact of the melodies. The weight in my chest lifting as I listened.
I am forever glad I was able to see Fall Out Boy live not once, but twice.
Even if you don't know me.
Even if you'll never know me.
Even if I could never tell you these things face to face.
Even if I am but a microscopic speck on the surface of the planet.
I mean it.
Besides, I'm okay with not officially existing. My words here are terrible at best, but the reassurance that maybe, maybe they will be read is enough.
Be back soon,
I'll still believe in you.

Rose.

I never ever dreamed of a day back in 2004 when i loved you for the first time that this would ever come to an end.

If it wasnt for the inspiration and dedication from you guys i wouldnt have opened up and become the person that i became 5 years later, today.

Whether this means its really over, or if its just a short term thing, i will forever stick by your sides.

I will forever remain a carcrash heart.
