Your true definition of me
Your idea that Im real
All of this is an illusion
Even though you can feel
My touch and my eyes
They lie and they victimize
My touch and my eyes
Pierce through, make you realise
I never wanted this world to be better
I always wanted this world to suffer
My flesh, my blood, all my animosity
Give me strength and define me
A bloodlust, it's all I trust
No more boundaries to cross
There is nothing uncommon
Indifferent to the pain I've caused
This confession means nothing
My touch and my eyes
They lie and they victimize
My touch and my eyes
Pierce through, make you realise
I never wanted this world to be better
I always wanted this world to suffer
My flesh, my blood, all my animosity
Give me strength and define me
A bloodlust, it's all I trust
This demon cannot be hushed
These cowards will all be crushed
No longer will I hide from them
My ways are set in stone
Nobody has ever known me
A life truly spent alone
Your true definition of me
Your idea that Im real
All of this is an illusion
Even though you can feel
My touch and my eyes
They lie and they victimize
My touch and my eyes
Pierce through, make you realise
I never wanted this world to be better
I always wanted this world to suffer
My flesh, my blood, all my animosity
Give me strength and define me
A bloodlust, it's all I trust
Your idea that Im real
All of this is an illusion
Even though you can feel
My touch and my eyes
They lie and they victimize
My touch and my eyes
Pierce through, make you realise
I never wanted this world to be better
I always wanted this world to suffer
My flesh, my blood, all my animosity
Give me strength and define me
A bloodlust, it's all I trust

im pretty sure its the 'American Psycho' idea, i mean some of the lyrics are taken right from the movie...
Brilliant song - This and 'implements of destruction' are probably my favourites. Not very sure about the meaning though. Any ideas?
This is a song based on 'American Psycho,' by Bret Easton Ellis, a book made into a movie starring Christian Bale. The giveaway is the quote: "this confession means nothing."
The book is about alienation and illusion. It was based in the late 1980s, and the main character was a trust fund kid whose nightly bloodlust had begun to spill into the day. As its central theme was illusion, the book and movie don't make it clear whether the bloodlust is real or imagined.
yea thats most likely it. i remember mark stating in an interview that this song was influenced from a movie.

I think these lyrics are supposed to be from a God perspective. It seems to talk about how people want God to be thought of. As a person/being that doesnt really care, and whos main desire is to influence people to kill other people. This influence is a bloodlust.
It makes me think of conflicts between Christians and Muslims. "This demon, cannot be hushed, these cowards must be crushed" It makes me think of Muslim extremists, who consider our Christian God, who is really the same as there God, a demon who cant be hushed. And then the cowards, or the Christians in this case, must all be crushed.
Or the line "indefferent to the pain ive caused. This confession means nothing" makes me think of a really devout religious person who is still devoted to their faith even though events in there life could be blamed on God. "This Confession means nothing" sounds like God telling a person, "you killed a dude, i dont care if you confessed it to me!"
just an idea. first thing that came to mind. kickin song
there is no god, so forget about it
Yes, this is another of Mark Hunters movie songs...such as Pictures in the Gold Room(The Shining), The Flame(Twin Peaks), The Disapearing Sun(Sunshine), etc.. This one is on American Psycho(great movie)
