(We're rolling suicide)
Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little make up
Hide the scars to fade away the shake up (hide the scars to fade away the)
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable, you wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup, you wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shake up, you wanted to
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table? You wanted to
I don't think you trust
In my
Self-righteous suicide
I cry
When angels deserve to die
Ah
Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little make up
Hide the scars to fade away the (hide the scars to fade away the)
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?

Father, into your hands
I commend my spirit
Father, into your hands
Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me, oh
Trust in my

According to your theory, does this mean the facts that were hidden can easely be unlocked? If that is the thruth, why is Jesus not agreeing with this by asking WHY?
As I understood, Jesus is angry in this song at God, his father, for hiding all the parts of the story.
Chop-Suicide?
To help further explain the song, my thought "self righteous suicide"... because Jesus "sacrificed" himself on the cross for peoples' "sins" people around the world "praise" him. Thus his dying (if he is/was God) would be for self righteous reasons.
Also I agree with Extremus'es idea about keys.
I don't think it could be about the domestic abuse because the thrid verse "father, into your hands, I commend my spirit" and "father, into your hands, why have you forsaken me" are as JofaGuht said are two of seven last words of christ.
btw its eloi eloi lema sabbachtani
"I don't think you trust, in, my, self righteous suicide" And yes it does relate to the story of Jesus' "sacrifice"
just putting my two cents in
You are on some kind of amazing level. This helped me so much. I mean, I got the literal interpretation of suicide in the first verse, but you, sir/madam, seriously delved here.
To show my gratitude, you get a cookie. ^_^
Did you even read my comment beyond the first line? I addressed all the stuff about suicide. Anyway, this song was clearly meant to be read through the eyes on Armenian ethnicity considering the Armenian flag is thrown during the music video, and some of it's lyrics were allegedly taken from a poem by Father Armeni.
You can disagree, but you also be plain wrong. When you're commenting on things I've already addressed as if I didn't know about it, you're just being ignorant.
I'm not downvoting your comments because I disagree, it's because you are being aggressive and attacking me based on ignorance. The one who needs to chill is the one who made four comments in a row expressing frustration about being downvoted.
This entire song as a whole makes sense when viewed through the lens of the Armenian Genocide. Obviously not every song they make is about their heritage, however, they are known for being "political" in some songs. And let's face it, this is one of their most powerful songs.
In, my, self righteous suicide
Is oxygen moronic statement in light of the over all context. The written knows this.
The Armenian Holocaust was responsible for about 1.5 million deaths where the Jewish Holocaust about 6 million European Jews and 17 million victims. Hitler almost ruled the World. It's not that no one cared it was the magnitude of it. There are genocides going on today. The Holocaust was noted because it was the worst one known to man. That one might stick out in my mind more because it directly effected me in the sense I never knew my grandfather who was a Japanese POW...
"In an interview, Daron Malakian explained, "The song is about how we are regarded differently depending on how we pass. Everyone deserves to die. Like, if I were now to die from drug abuse, they might say I deserved it because I abused dangerous drugs. Hence the line, 'I cry when angels deserve to die'. The lyric passages 'Father, into your hands I commend my spirit' and 'why have you forsaken me?' are a reference to Jesus' death on the cross, as, according to the Gospels, it was one of the seven things Jesus said while dying."
The record company made them change the word suicide to self righteous suicide. Oxymoronic describes self righteous suicide. Sharp but dull seeing how you don't know the term and are to lazy to look it up. You are stupid and just plain moronic. lmao... This band is Armenian American... You just wrote that about the Armenian holocaust that happened in 1915-23 so you can suck a penis. lmao
The Sultan of the Ottoman Empire was a Muslim who had absolute power. The only thing you had right was they went after Christians and Turkey denies it BUT that fact has nothing to do with this song as I have proven you wrong again.
