well, i agree with that interpretation, but not wholly.
i think that in the last few moments of his life he doesn't know whether he's innocent or not.
if he did it, he's told himself so strongly that he was innocent, that it's hard to accept guilt.
and if he didn't, he's been told so frequently that this is why he's being murdered. this is his punishment.
there is proof, not enough. but could i have done it and blocked it out? my EVIL hand wears a wedding band called GOOD. is it hiding it's true self?
did he do it? i think it's all interpretation.
in all i think this is internal conflict for him: what is the truth?
nick cave is brilliant.
