Milk it for all it's worth
make sure you get there first
the apple of your eye
the rotten core inside

We are all prisoners
things couldn't get much worse
I've had it up to here
you know your end is near

you had to have it all
well have you had enough?
you greedy little bastard
you will get what you deserve

when all is said and done
I will be the one
to leave you in your misery
and hate what you've become

Intoxicated eyes
No longer live that life
you should've learned by now
I'll burn this whole world down

I need some peace of mind
no fear of what's behind
you think you've won this fight
you've only lost your mind

you had to have it all
well have you had enough?
you greedy little bastard
you will get what you deserve

when all is said and done
I will be the one
to leave you in your misery
and hate what you've become

hold me down (I will live again)
pull me up (I will break it in)
hold me down (let me in)
hold me down

you had to have it all
well have you had enough?
you greedy little bastard
you will get what you deserve

when all is said and done
I will be the one
to leave you in your misery
and hate what you've become

heaven help you
heaven help you

    Song Meaning:the song is about himself. i think it switches perspectives a little bit, but i have had a lot of these same thoughts (before i heard the song) about myself when i was doing some selfish shit that i will always regret till i die.

    My Opinion:Obviously this is about Death Note.. lol
    It's ridiculous how well this song actually fits it though.

    General Comment:Whenever I hear this song, I think of two people arguing. Perhaps they were friends, or relatives, or something else. Regardless, they were very close. I think this song is their argument. Let's call them...I don't know...Seth and Max(characters from a book I'm writing that was influenced by this song). Max is good and Seth is evil, although Seth used to be good.

    Max is speaking in a condescending tone to Seth:

    "Milk it for all it's worth
    make sure you get there first
    the apple of your eye
    the rotten core inside.

    We are all prisoners
    things couldn't get much worse
    I've had it up to here
    you know your end is near

    you had to have it all
    well have you had enough?
    you greedy little bastard
    you will get what you deserve

    when all is said and done
    I will be the one
    to leave you in your misery
    and hate what you've become"

    He's saying to Seth how Seth's actions have left the world in fear of him and that Max has had enough of Seth's evil.

    Seth is too far gone to be saved by Max's words, and he just laughs in Max's face:

    "Intoxicated eyes
    No longer live that life
    you should've learned by now
    I'll burn this whole world down"

    Max then gets fed up and basically tells Seth that he's on his own, and that one day he will fall, and no one will be there to save him from his punishment:

    "I need some peace of mind
    no fear of what's behind
    you think you've won this fight
    you've only lost your mind

    you had to have it all
    well have you had enough?
    you greedy little bastard
    you will get what you deserve

    when all is said and done
    I will be the one
    to leave you in your misery
    and hate what you've become

    hold me down (I will live again)
    pull me up (I will break it in)
    hold me down (let me in)
    hold me down

    you had to have it all
    well have you had enough?
    you greedy little bastard
    you will get what you deserve

    when all is said and done
    I will be the one
    to leave you in your misery
    and hate what you've become

    heaven help you
    heaven help you"

    I think it's an awesome song :D

    General Comment:I LOVE the lyrics! It's a good song to drive to when you're letting anger out. I agree it's about any relationship.

    General Comment:In my opinion, this song seems to be about Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. It seems to be singing from Obi-Wan's perspective. Just my nerdy opinion.

    **I accidentally replied to kwiekaos, if someone could delete that one, that would be great. Thanks**

    General Comment:To me, this song sounds like he is singing about an alcoholic father. Every line in this song sounds like he is expressing his anger for how things are, and I can relate. "We are all prisoners
    things couldn't get much worse,I've had it up to here, you know your end is near", people that have drunks in their family feel like prisoners, and feel like things can't get worse. And the chorus totally sounds like it too when he says "you had to have it all
    well have you had enough?
    you greedy little bastard
    you will get what you deserve

    when all is said and done
    I will be the one
    to leave you in your misery
    and hate what you've become"
    Like hes say, you had to have it all, the booze and a "happy family", but he couldn't provide that. So, he'll tell him how it is and leave him in his misery when no one in his family is there for him, or cares anymore. Please post and tell me if anyone else thinks the same way...
