STOP POSTING BLOCKS OF LYRICS PLEASE.
Stop whining...back to the song...like any DEP song, Dimitri is obviously pissed. I think the first three lines are about how he was pissed and didnt say anything about it, but the 'head of the nail' was the action of something or someone else that pushed him to lash out at out someone. It sounds like hes saying his whole life he's had low self-esteem and feels shitty inside.
The musical reincarnation of Columbine.
This song is awesome. Makes me feel queezy after the 3rd listen.
Feels like the song is about someone who was always pushed around, does what everyone tells them ('Accept Instruction') and always pretends to be happy. They could never stand up for themselves. Sadly, this attitude gets them nowhere, and by always doing what they're told they never manage to get anywhere. I can't make much sense of the end part, but it feels like they're turning to prostitutes to make them feel better. Once all his money is spent he has nothing at all.
