One of my favorite Killing Joke songs. I don't know really what they had in mind with this song, but to me it's very, very deep.
I look at it in a way as to the fight inside us. To do what is right, whether what you think is right, society or law (you vs them)....going against what is considered wrong (again, you vs them).
Knowing in your heart as to what you are want to do and be. Is it wrong? How about if someone tells you it is? Can it be wrong? People can and will get hurt by you. But it's what YOU have to do/be. A crazy balance act of guilt and pleasure and others expectations of you in this society.
It's hard to love yourself, and harder to be yourself these days....without someone telling you it's wrong or sick or mentally screwed up.... but its still in you and is you. Doesn't make you right, but it does make you you. Other people can make you feel bad about who you are and what you do and you can feel it as well, but it's still there and can't be taken away.
