The Other Lyrics
I've never felt so alive
was nothing until I found my other half,
my missing parcel
Crept into the deep of my mind
A villains strength now amplified
To know us is to love us
Welcome to our insanity
Welcome to our serenity
Welcome to our complexity
We are infinite
There is only carnage
We'll kill you most mercifully
We choose our victims most carefully
There is only Carnage
My body is caged but my spirit is free
I feel nothing but contempt cold and empty
Never wound what you can't kill
I am the ultimate insanity
I was hollowed out inside empty
Welcome to our insanity
Welcome to our serenity
Welcome to our complexity
We are infinite
We'll kill you most mercifully
We choose our victims most carefully
There is only carnage
My body is caged but my spirit is free
I feel nothing but contempt cold and empty
We'll kill you most mercifully
We choose our victims most carefully
was nothing until I found my other half,
my missing parcel
Crept into the deep of my mind
A villains strength now amplified
To know us is to love us
Welcome to our serenity
Welcome to our complexity
We are infinite
We'll kill you most mercifully
We choose our victims most carefully
There is only Carnage
I feel nothing but contempt cold and empty
Never wound what you can't kill
I am the ultimate insanity
I was hollowed out inside empty
Welcome to our serenity
Welcome to our complexity
We are infinite
We choose our victims most carefully
There is only carnage
I feel nothing but contempt cold and empty
We choose our victims most carefully

Band stated in interview that each song is about a different comic book character(s), but that the lyrics are also written vaguely enough to be relateable.
Characters: At first I was sure that this was Two-face (particularly due to "choosing victims most carefully," as with his coin. But then as I was typing I noticed the alternating of capitalizing "Carnage," (these lyrics are straight from the CD booklet) which made me consider it was the villain of the same name from Spiderman. Really I think either fits.
General message: Contemplating madness, schizophrenia, becoming complete through accepting our darker thoughts and inclinations.

The band has made a picture to accompany each song, which gives away who they were referring to. This one sports a picture of Venom. I was getting warmer.
