Avenged Sevenfold – Natural Born Killer Lyrics 12 years ago
this song is most definitely about charles starkweather and caril anne fugate. they are often referred to as "natural born killers" and the movie natural born killers, directed by oliver stone is based off them. they were a couple who went on a killing spree, and when they were caught caril claimed that he was holding her hostage, which is why they are talking about "mangled stories" and what not. he got the death penalty and she got life in prison. charles even testified at her trail claiming she was a full participant. he was put to death by the electric on June 25, 1959 (aged 20), at the time of his execution she was 15 years old.

"And I'm waiting
Waiting for the days to slowly pass me by
(And all the promises I'll find)
No hesitating, you've pulled the trigger now your story's left behind
I know you want to see me fry
Lock my soul you hope to burn"

i am very familiar with this case, and this song meaning just really seems obvious to me.
