sin

sin

you give me the reason.you give me control.i gave you my Purity.my Purity you stole.did you think i wouldn't recognize this compromise.am i just too stupid to realize.stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies
it comes down to this.your kiss.your fist.and your strain.it get's under my skin.within.take in the extent of my sin
you give me the anger.you give me the nerve.carry out the sentence.i get what i deserve.i'm just an effigy to be defaced.to be disgraced.your need for me has been replaced.and if i can't have everything well then just give me a taste
it comes down to this.your kiss.your fist.and your strain.it get's under my skin.within.take in the extent of my sin

I sense the anger in this song was directed at the woman who left him feelings of stupidity because she stole his innocence ("i gave you my Purity.my Purity you stole"). It was a futile relationship and although he felt used and resented her lies he still wanted her and "if I can't have everything well then just give me a taste."

being angry at himself for losing his Purity, which i interpret not only as sexual purity but as innocence, purity of the soul, ways to keep hatred at bay, and using that anger to fuel yet more "forbidden" or "bad" (masochistic?) sexual activity. i take it as "hey, i've already sinned, i already blew it, what does it matter now if i make it worse? just keep me angry, keep me impure, keep me feeling like it doesn't matter and that i'm getting all the punishment i deserve, and i won't have to feel guilty about diving deeper and deeper into my perverted side." in a broader sense, embracing negativity, because to be positive at this point seems far too hard. seeing no way to create, and so turning wholly to destruction.
