The term ‘Jetset’ is used to describe a lifestyle defined by frequent traveling and (almost always) heavy drug and alcohol use.

During the Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge era, Gerard Way abused alcohol and cocaine to cope with the stress of the band’s grueling tour schedules. The Jetset life did indeed almost kill him in Japan in 2004. At the end of that tour and before the Vans Warped Tour in 2005, Gerard got himself clean. According to Gerard, it was:

The hardest tour in the world! I love that tour, it’s amazing, but that was during my first clean year. If you walk five feet, somebody is waving a bottle in your face. I had to stay on the bus the entire time, which bummed me out."

The song itself is a first-person narration by Gerard, speaking to the demons of his addiction, whom he personifies as a woman.
