Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Sally Average	#1 by Sally Gray at Jul 2, 1990 at 11:08 PM EST
	What the hell are you talking about? They are not going to break up!!! If they do, I will die!!!!

No Picture kyle Average	#2 by kyle sharpshooter at Dec 30, 1990 at 8:08 PM EST
	Corey in this song is actually talking about how his father left him, and all the anguish he caused.

No Picture Kieran Average	#3 by Kieran Molloy at Oct 31, 1998 at 12:55 PM EST
	In this song I see a relationship issue of some sort. But the line "One less propaganda nightmare fixture, are you getting the picture?" sounds like some sort of reference to the stereotype that critics push on them. "Just another shock rock bunch of satanists...". I dunno. That's my bit.

No Picture NIK Average	#4 by NIK blaszczyszyn at Sep 6, 2001 at 9:54 AM EST
	i think this song is saying that he wont give up anything for someone or something.......but at the sae time hes saying if u have the balls then come take it from me.......i dunno i might be WAY off
