Mad Sin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
the bastards outside drive me mad
i shot 60 people dead
and i don't know why the fuck i'm here
i can't take it anymore - no more,
i can't take it anymore - no more,
i can't take it anymore - no more,
and you better watch out
and maybe i will never get free
all the walls closing around me
oh no, i will never setting free
i can't take it anymore - no more,
i can't take it anymore - no more,
i can't take it anymore - no more,
and you better watch out
please set me free
i got a job to do
let me out of this straitjacket
well i'm sitting in my rubber cell
the bastards outside...
i can't take it anymore - no more,...
well i know that i'm bonding here...
i can't take it anymore - no more,...
Mad Sin's song "No More" is a raw and intense depiction of the anguish felt by someone who has committed a heinous crime and is locked up in a rubber cell. The lyricist paints a picture of a disturbed individual who has shot 60 people dead and is now struggling to come to terms with the extent of their actions. The singer is tormented by the thought of being permanently incarcerated and unable to complete their 'job,' which remains unspecified. The verses describe the walls that are closing in on the singer and the unbearable feeling of being trapped. The repetition of the phrase 'I can't take it anymore - no more' further emphasises the singer's feelings of helplessness and despair. The chorus ends with the ominous warning to 'watch out,' suggesting that the singer is still a threat to society.
The song is a powerful commentary on the effects of incarceration on mental health, particularly in the context of the criminal justice system's treatment of people with mental illness. It highlights the need for more humane and rehabilitative approaches to punishment, rather than just locking up and forgetting about people who are struggling with mental illness. The song speaks to the universal desire for freedom and the human right to be treated with compassion and respect, regardless of one's actions or mental state.
