Am I missing something hidden in the lyrics? I get the dad is dead, but seems tangential at best with no mention that he was killed or of any revenge.

Nah, it's not that deep.

I couldn't think of a title but the wording of the first panel reminded me of the lyrics from that MCR song. So I put the opening words from that song in as the title, knowing that at least one person would notice it and finish the opening line. Really really surface level joke.
