analysing "all i want is nothing" by frank iero; a thread.
the first thing he says in this song is;
"check check check",
just like in DESTROYA, what is also significant that this is the first track on the album, so it could be interpreted that he& #39;s genuinely missing mcr as a band on a whole.

"think back to the heart attack"
the ‘heart attack’ seems to be a metaphor for a certain event, one that may have thrown things out of balance. it could have been something that happened between frank and the person in this song/maybe it was a realization.

"crooked spine" is obviously a mention to scoliosis, and one of gerard. from what i can tell this is the only mention of gerard in the song, but there is a theme of him, esentially frank saying he& #39;s pissed that he wasted time on gerard and should have concentrated on jamia soley.
He mentioned the song was about a relationship. "When I first met my wife I was very sure that I loved her. It was definitely a very love at first sight type thing." https://www.rocksound.tv/videos/watch/these-are-the-stories-behind-frank-ieros-songs">https://www.rocksound.tv/videos/wa...
He also described the song’s message as:
& #39;I know that you are what I want. I don’t care if I have nothing else, I’ll be fine if I just have you.& #39;
& #39;I know that you are what I want. I don’t care if I have nothing else, I’ll be fine if I just have you.& #39;
“That song’s about a relationship. Basically, early on, when I first met my wife I was very sure that I loved her. It was definitely a very love at first sight type thing. That’s why I know that that’s true because I experienced it! But (cont)
"to be young and to meet someone and be very serious about them, and also to be on tour constantly….things arise, and your paths kind of shift. That song’s about like ‘yeah all this stuff is happening, we need to go experience life first before we can be together but (cont)
I know that you are what I want. I don’t care if I have nothing else, I’ll be fine if I just have you’.”
the arisen topics clearly feature hints at gerards and franks supposed relationship, and since gerard struggled to reciprocate this frank has moved on to his love, Jamia.
