| − | === Albums === | + | shrill, chilling, a hatesong delivered in an ice-cold whisper from the killer's perspective. He may not think much of Klebold and Harris but he sure as all hell knows how they felt. "You never accepted or treated me fair/blame me for what I believe and I wear/...but I have to show that you played a role/and I will destroy you with one simple hole...and I am not sorry/and I am not sorry/this is what you deserve." As Charlie said during his trial; as Manson said in the hidden track of ACSS. Always that indecision: should the one with the power to save us use it, or leave us to our fate? Do we deserve the savior's sacrifice? The sacred one dies for us, to ensure our survival; are we worth it? |
