Okay, the Tori Amos and Trent Reznor meaning makes a lot of sense since the two of them are great friends. And Tori did make a song that has a lot to do with it.
At the same time, I agree with becky's comment the most.
I mean her comment makes perfect sense.
Trent tends to write about things he sees in the world that he thinks are stupid. I could use better words, but stupid is just the best to explain it.
Usually he sticks to religion, but in this case, he's saying what's with men and needing affirmation of things, and going after it in the form of things like rape.
And that still works with the Tori Amos. He's looking from the rapists point of view. This man, just your regular.. Normal.. Fan Boy.. Right?
He wants to feel BIG.. Well Rape does this to men. Gives them a feeling of power. And in this case, it's not just any woman, it's a famous singer. Right?
So this guy feels real good about himself, real, big. And the whole time he hid behind a gun, while raping someone.
Bet that made him feel big. Having it put into terms like that.
Trent might as well just say. "Hey, doubt she cared about the size of your dick, or you. You weren't in power. The gun was. It was all the gun."
"me and my fucking gun"
"shoot shoot shoot"
He makes the song revolve more around the gun than the rape. Sort of takes away the "masculinity" the "power" that the rapist might have been feeling.
