Lyrics

This is definitely not the first video to surface of an execution

Refers to the prevalence of execution videos previously circulated

They claimed responsibility for the executions

The responsible party claimed the executions

Described as severely mentally disturbed

Describing the executed as severely mentally disturbed

It appears to show another hostage executed by the terrorist group

Another hostage appears to be executed by a terrorist group

Deserve to be annihilated

Expresses a belief that certain individuals deserve annihilation


I get my kicks and I want to start a rager

Expresses a desire for excitement and the start of an energetic party

I want to dance like I'm on the video

Desire to dance energetically, mimicking behavior seen in videos

I got a fever for the violent behavior

Desire or excitement for violent behavior

I'm sweating bullets like a modern Romeo

Feeling intense anxiety or nervousness


Bang, bang, give me fame

Desire for fame, linked to the act of shooting

Shoot me up to entertain (oh)

Willingness to be shot or used for entertainment

I am a semi-automatic lonely boy

Identifying as someone who feels isolated and operates like a semi-automatic weapon

You're dead, I'm well fed

Asserting superiority over others who are "dead" metaphorically

Give me death or give me head (oh)

Preference for extreme choices: death or sexual gratification

Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier

Describes a disturbed upbringing from both parents


I testify like a lullaby of memories

Testifying about memories in a soothing manner like a lullaby

Broadcasting live and it's on my radio

Comparing broadcasting experiences to live memories on the radio

I got my photo bomb, I got my Vietnam

Associating personal experiences with war and lies

I love a lie just like anybody else

Admitting an affinity for lies similar to others


Bang, bang, give me fame

Similar to line 12, desiring fame through being shot

Shoot me up to entertain (oh)

Desire to be shot for entertainment purposes

I am a semi-automatic lonely boy

Reiteration of feeling isolated and operating like a semi-automatic weapon

You're dead, I'm well fed

Reasserting superiority over others metaphorically

Give me death or give me head (oh)

Preference for extreme choices: death or sexual gratification

Broadcasting from my room and playing with my toys

Playing with toys while broadcasting from a personal space


I want to be a celebrity martyr (oh)

Desire to be a celebrated martyr, center of attention in their drama

The leading man in my own private drama

Desiring to be the main character in their own life's drama

Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour

Celebrating oneself as the hero in their own narrative

Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier

Referencing disturbed upbringing from both parents again


I wanna be like the soldiers on the screen

Desire to emulate soldiers depicted in media

It's my private movie (Holy war)

Perceiving life as a personal, dramatic movie, possibly related to a holy war

Oh, baby, baby, this is Viva Vendetta

Referencing a movie ('V for Vendetta') that involves fighting for ideals

Oh, this is love or it's World War Zero

Contrasting love with the possibility of global conflict


I wanna be a celebrity martyr

Reiteration of the desire to be a celebrated martyr

The leading man in my own private drama

Desire to be the main character in their own life's drama reiterated

Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour

Self-celebration as the hero in their own narrative repeated

Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier

Referencing a disturbed upbringing from both parents once more

I wanna be a celebrity martyr (oh)

Reiteration of the desire to be a celebrated martyr

The leading man in my own private drama

Repeating the desire to be the main character in their own drama

Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour

Repetition of celebrating oneself as the hero in their narrative

Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier

Referencing a disturbed upbringing from both parents for the final time
