Stray Bullet Lyrics

The lyrics to "Stray Bullet" :

  1. "Stray Bullet"

    I am your holy totem
    I am your sick taboo
    Radical and radiant
    I’m your nightmare coming true
    I am your worst enemy
    I am your dearest friend
    Malignantly Malevolent
    I am of divine descent

    I have come to rock your world
    I have come to shake your faith
    Anathematic Anarchist
    I have come to take my place

    I am your unconsciousness
    I am unrestrained excess
    Metamorphic restlessness
    I’m your unexpectdness

    I am your apocalypse
    I am your belief unwrought
    Monolithic juggernaut
    I’m the illegitimate son of god

    Stray bullet
    From the barrel of love
    Stray bullet
    From the heavens above
    Stray bullet
    Ready or not
    I’m the illegitimate son of god

The importance (or non-importance of these) is that they connect Pekka-Eric Auvinen of the Jokala high school shooting with Eric Harris, of the Columbine High School shootings.

The YouTube video, titled “Jokela High School Massacre — 11/7/2007,” was posted Tuesday by a user called Sturmgeist89.

Set
to a song called “Stray Bullet” by the industrial rock band KMFDM, the
video shows a photo of a building that appears to be Jokela High
School. The photo breaks apart to reveal a red-tinted picture of a man
pointing a handgun at the camera.

“I am prepared to fight and die
for my cause,” read a posting by a user of the same name. “I, as a
natural selector, will eliminate all who I see unfit, disgraces of
human race and failures of natural selection.”

Hours after the massacre, the user’s account was suspended.

Lyrics to various songs by KMFDM, including “Stray Bullet,” were also posted on a Web site maintained by Eric Harris, one of the two gunmen in the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado.

Quite what to make of this, well, who knows? That two madmen liked the same song is perhaps all that can really be said?
