Killer
Mad Sin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
canal back to the society out of the green hill
forgot a word called love
forgot a word called peace
and how the fuck he should care?
he saw the hell on earth
don't care about questions,don't care about lies
a man without feelings forgot how to cry
and the devils screams in hell
godless fucking man who don't give a damn
he's a killer
the bitter taste of napalm sticks on his tongue
nightmares about burning babies after the work was done
and what the fuck he was fighting for nobody knows
the price he paid was his life and this was too high
don't care about questions...
in his dark clouded brain the war still goes on
he grabs the machine gun hits the road to have some fun
a dark clouded brain, machine guns and war
he hits the road goes out to have some fun
don't care about questions...
the mornings nice the sun shines so bright
and the news tells about the massacre last night
a maniac killed 70 people so far
just another victims of the goddamned war
don't care about questions...
killer killer killer outside of the society
killer....
The lyrics of Mad Sin's song "Killer" describe the life of a traumatized veteran of the Vietnam War who has returned to society but is unable to shake off the horrors he witnessed and experienced in the war. The singer has forgotten words like love and peace, and is detached from society to the extent that he doesn't care about questions or lies. He has become a godless man who is a killer, and he's lost the ability to feel and cry. Instead, he hears the angels singing in heaven and the devils screaming in hell. He has become a victim of the war and a threat to society.
The bitterness of the war is still stuck in the singer's tongue, and he has nightmares about burning babies after the work was done. He doesn't know what he fought for, and the price he had to pay was too high. The war has clouded his brain, and he takes his machine gun out for some fun. He becomes a maniac who kills 70 people and is now outside society.
The song "Killer" doesn't glorify the singer's actions but rather shows the consequences of war and the damage it can do to the human psyche. The song serves as a reminder of the brutality of war and the importance of helping veterans cope with the trauma they face.
