Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Brian Average	#1 by Brian Dempsey at Dec 10, 1975 at 2:43 AM EST
	This song is simple...Anarchy...Soilwork has sever anti establishment undertows in many of their songs... "You gotta get yourself a picture of what is going on Cause their lips are sealed now Their honesty never to be found Hateful design builds the structure divine A territory cold as ice An endless empire with cynic desire Born of a broken spell Your pride is just a symbol another hidden excuse for being such a savior distorting your sick self abuse" Think about it...it makes perfect sense.

No Picture dalton Average	#2 by dalton hoffman at Jan 17, 1976 at 1:00 PM EST
	lóve them.. the chorus just sticks in your head..

No Picture Tom Average	#3 by Tom Gregory at Mar 12, 1978 at 12:54 AM EST
	I love Soilwork's songs because they're usually so ambiguous.

No Picture ` niki * Average	#4 by ` niki * at Nov 3, 1980 at 12:28 AM EST
	this song rox!

No Picture Bobby Rhythm Player	#5 by Bobby McCorkle at Feb 14, 1983 at 8:05 PM EST
	it sounds like "got to stop standing in line" not "guttersnipe standing in line"

No Picture Grunge Hamster Lead Player	#6 by Grunge Hamster at Nov 29, 1983 at 12:12 AM EST
	i guess song meanings are different to everyone so what i say a lot of people might not agree with... to me its about living in a small town or confined space where theres more pressure to fit in and conform, blindness is a part as you can't see outside of the confined area but you know that staying where you are isnt going to get you far and "rolling the dice" isnt the best way to decide youre life

No Picture The Four String Lead Player	#7 by The Four String Mother Fucker at Feb 4, 1987 at 11:01 PM EST
	It is 'guttersnipe'... cool song. Seems like it might be describing the conflict between rich and poor, haven't looked much into it though.

No Picture PunkJunky Wanna Be	#8 by PunkJunky at Mar 7, 1988 at 7:29 AM EST
	I agree with Nagamori, it definitely is 'Guttersnipe' The definition of 'guttersnipe' is a street urchin, or a child who spends most of his/her life in the streets, which fits perfectly in with the song.

No Picture THE RONANATOR ( Average	#9 by THE RONANATOR (aka.Ronan) downer at Jan 5, 2002 at 7:05 AM EST
	it sounds like "got to stop standing in line" not "guttersnipe standing in line"

No Picture tim Average	#10 by tim martin at Mar 20, 2002 at 6:11 PM EST
	thats just to be mysterious i luv soilwork, all the songs i have absolutely ROCK holy crap, where have these guys been hiding all my life?

No Picture Dakota Average	#11 by Dakota Keyes at Nov 13, 2003 at 11:24 PM EST
	This song is so intense! I love it. The chorus is just so beautiful. I can\'t extract an exact meaning out of this one but it sure is a sweet song.

No Picture jim Professional	#12 by jim d.f at Apr 28, 2004 at 3:11 PM EST
	Oh and Disturbed, I think it sounds like that too BUT it couldn't be because of the context... "Feeling like i gotta stop standing in line Deciding his lifestyle by rolling the dice" The context wouldn't work..? Wouldn't it be "my" not "his"? Just a thought.

No Picture Joonas Wanna Be	#13 by Joonas Luukkainen at Jan 16, 2005 at 10:00 AM EST
	So melodic.

No Picture Quinn Rhythm Player	#14 by Quinn I killed my last name at Nov 6, 2006 at 8:45 PM EST
	to me it sounds like he is singing about a wartorn area. "In my town where the system sleeps Nobody gives a damn" is about there is no military or police "It's up to you how to hide to flee Their hunger never ends" is about takign care about only yourself and trying to survive thru the day. "Hateful design builds the structure divine A territory cold as ice" buildings being destroyed with bombs and stuff, a territory as cold as ice. i cant really get thou.
