Song lyrics
Hate is what I feel for you
And I want you to know that I want you dead
You're late for the execution
If you're not here soon, I'll kill your friend instead

All the pain I feel
Couldn't start to heal
Although I would like it to

I hate you and your apathy
You can leave, you can leave, I don't want you here
I'm playing this pantomine
But I don't see you showing any signs of fear

All the pain I feel
Couldn't start to heal
Although I would like it to
This time I'm for real
My pain cannot heal
You will be dead when I'm through

Hate is what I feel for you
And I want you to know that I want you dead
You're late for the execution
If you're not here soon, I'll kill your friend instead

All the pain I feel
Couldn't start to heal
Although I would like it to
This time I'm for real
My pain can not heal
You will be dead when I'm through

Pain and execution
Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air
The air

I am, I am Israel's son
Israel's son I am
Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air
I am, I am Israel's son
Israel's son I am
Put your hands in the air
Put your hands in the air

well.... i think i got the point, but why does he sing "i am israel's son" in the end ?
i mean, this was some kind of riddle and he answers himself?!

WTF ?!!

to answer the question of Mork_Gryning.. I think it might have a religious meaning... just I hate the bible, so I have no idea what exactly it is...
great song though!!! played it so loud my mom told me to shut it of.. kinda sux, cuz I wanted to listen...

I found this: "It's about an execution I saw on the telly...I got this video of an execution and I just saw it,
and I was watching it one night. I had a dream about it, and I woke up and thought, "Oh yeah,
that's pretty cool," and I wrote a song about it."
that's kinda a weird basis for songwriting dont you think lol.... kick ASS song though...!!
