"Murder, in the first degree
Murder, it's only revenge
Murder, why , why
Are we so righteous to declare that one must die"
This verse that is repeated to me strongly suggests that who are we to determine death is a righteous sentence for a murderer ... that is we murder a murderer (ironic?)
A lot of the lines throughout suggest flaws with the judicial system (perhaps questioning how many "innocent" are on death row), and overall why can society decide when murder is justified.
Could this be about the death sentence??
