Addict

Talking about killing people...Slayer style.

Yeah this song is great, MAKES MY RUSH INTENSIFY :)

Does no-one get the meaning of this song? The drug is religion, the addicts are the religious people. Big emphasis on the fact that religion is fuelled by fear- fear of death, fear of uncertainty.

"Unbound, I'm the weapon made to sterilize Sterilize all the idiot victims" Religion designed to keep people unthinking, pacify the masses.

"Anytime, anywhere, anyone I want Everyone's addicted to this torture I'm the agony in every breath Every breath brings you closer to me You'll do anything, anything You'll do anything to make it stop" Religious followers would do anything, follow any religion to stop their fear of death, thinking that every breath brings them closer to death.

"Do you want to feel eternity? Your eternity lies within me" If you want to live forever, you must become addicted.

"I'm the terror of your final breath Your final breath brings light to my darkness" In their final breath, the addicted question whether they followed the right faith and they're still scared of what will come. But because they've given their lives to this faith, it's the "light to the drugs (religions) darkness" because others will follow, will see this dedication and believe it is a good faith. The more people die for this drug, the more will take it.

Very clever song. Very good comparison, saying religion is a drug. Not a mind expanding, enlightening drug but a close-minded, escapist drug. "addicts" are escaping the reality of uncertainty and the questions of philosophy, choosing a drug that lets them escape from all that, gives them the easy answers. But even in the end they're not satisfied, they're still uncertain, and in their death they give their power to the drug, intensifying it's effect with their fear.

Funny how people project meanings onto things lol... sometimes it's a real stretch.

To me personally the song is very literal. It's that darkness within each of us, that cold empty core which wants to destroy, to consume life, to suck the marrow from the bone of existence. That darkness isn't all that's within us, there's the opposite side of the 'coin' too.

I know this feeling, because often when I've seen the fakeness of much of the world, of so many people, part of me desires to break them, to tear down their walls and reign with absolute power over them and their pathetic state.

It's almost like a wild dog... if such an animal respects you, it won't attack you. But if it sees your insanity, your fear and weakness, it may well do so. The natural urge to destroy and challenge that which is pathetic and weak - spiritually pathetic and weak that is, rather than what some group subjectively opinions as 'weak'.

Disgust is perhaps the appropriate word.

This is an awesome song...it's a shame it's so rare...most newly-made slayer fans don't get the opportunity to hear it.

This song and scarstruck are both awesome, I don't know why they didn't get on the album.
