This song is amazing. Had a spare day to fill in the lyrics to all of my Volbeat songs on iTunes & I have to say that I was pretty surprised at how deep some of the lyrics were. Say Your Number has a lot of symbolism in it with the seventeen (not 17) kills and 81. I cannot for the life of my find anything on seventeen kills, but I do know that 81 is a term referenced quite frequently with the Hell's Angel's. It is also a common dosage of aspirin which is where I am leaning with my guess on this song's meaning.
I've been a user of many things for many years..
The mark to greet the masquerade is here ... fuckin epic line. Bang a D and see if it doesnt change the way you look/at things.
For they maim the way you see them think ---obviously means that you think that the drugs are helping but you're not seeing things for what they really are. Just like every other junkie in the world, we all think we have a hold on it,
