The Last Hurrah (Insanity)

Story behind the song
Think of an abused child whom no-one believed. Now imagine that child years later as an adult, struggling with raising a family of their own and coping silently with their past. Suddenly, they snap! well, the first half (Last Hurrah) is the external view, consider it a 3rd person view. The second half (Insanity) is the internal struggle and the final breaking point where the calm and responsible adult, meets the psychotic inner child still suffering in it's dark lonely shell.
This is my interpretation of a possible outcome
There is a parental advisory because of the graphic nature of the lyrics.
Lyrics
Last Hurrah:
Verse 1
You thought your vicious game, Could go on forever
Ha ha! You thought wrong, b***
I swore that some day soon, I'd be there to take you down
Make you pay, watch you beg, Like I did
Chorus
Now it's all over for you.
Count your blessed fingers, while you still got 'em
This ain't the worst I can do
but you'll be awake, for the last hurrah
Verse 2
For all the meaningless pain, You caused me through the years
I only wish that your's could last, Half as f*** ing long as mine
What kind of sicko freak, Treats a child the way you did?
What the hell could I have ever f*** ing done to to you?
Chorus
Now it's all over for you.
Count your blessed fingers, while you still got 'em
This ain't the worst I can do
but you'll be awake, for the last hurrah
Insanity:
Verse 1
A Captured animal, Lay you down upon the table,
Cool - cool steel
Bringing you here was the easy part
Better keep you quiet or they'll discover me
Pre-Chorus
I'll begin with surgical precision
The fine art of Gray's Anatomy
I'll inject you, then dissect you
keep you awake so you can see inside yourself
Chorus
An eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth
I'll collect for all the pain you gave me
No judge, no jury, just the executioner
Employed by my insanity
Verse 2
Local anesthetics, straps to keep you still
watch your beating heart in the mirror above you
Peel away your skin, expose your flesh and bone
Collect tears from your eyes as I tear you limb from limb
Pre-Chorus
I'll keep you alive and abuse you every day
Helpless and vulnerable, like the child you tortured
Perhaps I'll rape you, burn you and scar you
I'll make you wish that you were never f*** ing born
Chorus
An eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth
I'll collect for all the pain you gave me
No judge, no jury, just the executioner
Employed by my insanity
