Story behind the song
Imagining being a victim of a suicide bombing
Lyrics
I heard you come in but I didn't see who you were
I wondered how long you'd stand there
I didn't know that you'd spoken to god
and that he said we're all infidels and needed to die
I don't know what he promised you
to get you to do this
or what I did that was so wrong
that makes him want it so bad
Your life must be a real disappointment
for you to be in such a hurry to throw it all away
Look me dead in the eyes
before you push that button
I want to see the face
of the one who's blowing me away
Is it sex on TV or the things that we outlaw?
Is it that we have everything and you have nothing?
It's envy, it's gotta be, that makes you all hate us
You want the drama, the debt and the car
I can tell you (if I live through) it's not all it's cracked up to be
The more you have the more you want
We're all just lazy and selfish and overweight
and all we really believe in is money
Look me dead in the eye
before you push that button
I want to see the face
of the one who's blowing me away
