	first off AWESOME SONG second: as woro said, the "but think as i rape your mother" part really annoys me. third: afflicted4life is right about the meaning as far as i'm concerned fourth: the drums ROCK fifth: that solo, and chorus riff are also AWESOME sixth: inflames is the best band ever (needless to say)

	As for the "rape your mother": Any "true" In Flames fan knows that "mother" always mean MOTHER EARTH.

	Oh yea, and as for the rape your mother part...I'm glad its in there...adds a little shock factor(very little). Sometimes that gets ppl to think.

	To me, this song seems like it is a follow-up to Swim. It could also be used as a follow-up to Reroute to Remain (the song), as both songs deal with revolution/rebellion/revolting/breaking off and creating new worlds/systems. This song is about rebuilding the world after a violent revolution. It's about creating a new society where all the shit that exists in our society just won't work or exist. But somebody is trying to corrupt it and destroy what could be beautilful Alternatively, this song could be about some people plotting a revolution, and the differing opinions of how it should be done and who should do what after the revolution. "Another player joins the table Who I can or cannot trust When do we get assigned? Pure and precious with bad intentions" pretty much sums up why I think this song is about what I think it is about.

	I think it's about how people get caught up in the idea of revenge and retribution and then everything spirals downwards into anarchy. I first got this impression from the lyric "Hey, get in line for tragic Let us dance to the pistol magic", and everything else seems to fit from that.

	yeah , i ruins my feelings too

	Agree with you two. It's a great song but "but think, as I rape your mother" makes the lyric bad,

No Picture Ryan Average	#8 by Ryan Van Halen at Apr 29, 2003 at 7:24 AM EST
	oh man, i didn't think of that. but that'd make sense. those guys are very earth conscious... like in Graveland (which is infact one of my favorite songs to refer to). and raping mother earth is like misusing the resources, or rather abusing them. but yeah...

	this song and most of clayman is about morality. i think its about revenge and getting caught up in a mess. you need to be the better man (or woman)
