This song reminds me of a Dutch/French film "Spoorloos (The Vanishing)." The antagonist of the film rescues a young girl from drowning and is praised as a hero. To determine whether he was actually as good as everyone seemed to believe he was, he decided to perform the most evil act he could think of to balance out the good deed. So he kidnaps a woman and buries her alive. I guess the parallel between the film and the song then would be the theme that nobody is inherently good or evil, that the people who seem and are capable of the greatest acts are just as capable of the most wicked acts.
