Lyrics
Did you see the accident, the road is red with blood
Describing a gruesome accident with blood on the road.
Funny how it makes you feel really, really good
Reflecting on the strange satisfaction one feels witnessing such events.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Denying personal responsibility for the accident.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Repeating the denial of personal responsibility.
Exactly like I knew it would
Expressing a sense of predictability about the situation.
I can´t help it everytime anybody dies
Acknowledging a morbid fascination with death.
I can´t help it if it brings a sparkle to my eyes
Indicating pleasure or excitement at the sight of death.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Reiterating the denial of personal involvement.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Emphasizing the dissociation from the accident.
Every time a nice surprise
Associating death with a pleasant surprise.
Them not me, them, not me,
Stating the preference for others to experience negative outcomes.
I can still be, I can still be free
Claiming the ability to remain free from consequences.
Them not me, them not me
Repeating the preference for others to suffer instead.
Over and over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the theme.
Streets are like a slaughterhouse, turn right on the red
Comparing streets to a slaughterhouse, suggesting danger.
Here come pedestrians, night of living dead
Drawing a parallel between pedestrians and zombies.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Denying personal responsibility for others' misfortune.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Reiterating the dissociation from the accident.
Guess they should have stood in bed
Suggesting that the victims should have avoided the situation.
Them not me, them, not me
Restating the preference for others to suffer.
I can still be, I can still be free
Asserting the ability to remain free despite negative circumstances.
Them not me, them not me
Reiterating the preference for others to bear the consequences.
Over and over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the theme.
Alive not Dead
Repeating the mantra "Alive not Dead" as a declaration of vitality.
Alive not Dead
-Alive not Dead
-Alive not Dead
-Alive not Dead
-Alive not Dead
-When I see those flashing lights & hear those sirens moan
Reacting positively to emergency situations, finding joy in them.
See the smile on my face, I grab my mobile phone
Expressing happiness while witnessing chaos, ready to document it.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Reiterating the denial of personal involvement in the incident.
It was them, it wasn´t me
Repeating the dissociation from the accident.
Murder in the Twighlight Zone
Referring to murder in a surreal or disorienting context.
Them not me, them, not me
Reiterating the preference for others to suffer negative consequences.
I can still be, I can still be free
Claiming the ability to remain free from the impact of such events.
Them not me, them not me
Reiterating the preference for others to bear the consequences.
Over and over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the theme.
Them not me, them, not me
Restating the preference for others to suffer.
I can still be, I can still be free
Asserting the ability to remain free despite negative circumstances.
Them not me, them not me
Reiterating the preference for others to bear the consequences.
Over and over and over
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of the theme.
Them, not me
Concluding with a final declaration of the preference for others to suffer.
