This is a song about a pop-culture hero - predator. Someone who was worshipped for their beauty / art, but in secret preyed on children. The Pied Piper took the town of Hamlin's youth. "Carcass crippled underneath the pounding waves of adoration". This entire album is about how broken society is, and references so many aspects of this. This song is no different, and personally hits extremely fucking close to home for me.
