Lyrics

On earth there are men who take

Expressing the existence of men on earth who take lives.

Lives of those who care enough to help

Highlighting the victims as those who care enough to help others.

What gives you the right

Raising a question about the right to take someone's life.

To put man's life in your hands

Challenging the authority to hold another person's fate.

You're a cold-blooded killer

Labeling the perpetrator as a heartless murderer.

You must be insane

Suggesting that the killer's actions are irrational and deranged.


Revolting against the human race

Rebelling against the entirety of humanity.

Don't give a damn about anyone

Expressing a lack of concern or empathy for anyone.

What gives you the right

Reiterating the questioning of the right to control another's life.

To put man's life in your hands

Recalling the act of taking a person's life.

You're a cold-blooded killer

Reaffirming the characterization of the killer as cold-blooded.

You must be insane

Emphasizing the perceived insanity of the killer.


Assassin, were you sent from hell

Pondering whether the assassin is a demonic force sent to disrupt peace.

To destroy one more chance for peace

Attributing the assassin's actions to destroying opportunities for peace.

What gives you the right

Reiterating the question of the right to control someone's life.

To put man's life in your hands

Reemphasizing the characterization of the killer as cold-blooded.

You're a cold-blooded killer

Reaffirming the assertion that the killer must be insane.

You must be insane

Repeating the suggestion of the killer's irrationality and madness.

Stupid man of hate

Concluding with a judgmental label, referring to the killer as a foolish purveyor of hate.
