The title isn't just a sexual reference. It's ambiguous. The song is mostly about death. The dirty hole is actually the earth. Think of a the image of a grave; a dirty hole. "How many dead men, God? ...How many men have died in your dirty hole?" The song starts off by saying "I saw the gravestones. I saw 9 year old boys." He starts of contemplating the cruelty of death and the anger at a creator that would allow such atrocities.
Calm down, dude. I said it's ambiguous. Meaning it has two meanings. It can be taken two different ways. Besides, the line "my life flashes before my eyes..." can be directly related to death. What do people often say happens right before death? That's right. Your life flashes before your eyes. And asking "how can the earth be a killing hole?" is probably one of the stupidest questions I've ever heard.
Calm down, man. It isn't a stupid question. The earth isn't a 'killing' hole because it doesn't cause your death. You're already dead when you go into it.
The line "As I spread her thighs" is the only one I can't really explain its relation to death. I imagine, since he says "as I spread her thighs my life flashes before my eyes" that he's saying that he already knows the outcome of his sexual temptation in that he can already see the death of the relationship before it's even begun. But even if the "As I spread her thighs" doesn't relate to death; is that your argument? That five words in the song don't relate to death?
He is angry at himself, not God. He is angry at himself because the 9 year old boys are dead - he has his own life to live and yet he is knowingly cutting it short - waisting it - by sleeping with the dirty holed lady - hence, 'somewhow I knew they hated me [...] you can live as long as you want to live'. They didn't have a choice, he does. The sexual reference is not ambiguous at all. The 'dirty hole' is not the earth. It is about death, but death by sex.
I first heard this track around ten years ago, and liked it straight away. But I have always wiondered what it is about...is the 'hole' he sings about an allegory for death? A reference to the grave, or just a reference to mortality in general? Perhaps something entirely different?...And who is he addressing--God? The universe? A person? Just wondered, as the lyrics don't really make it clear.
oh this song is amazing . . but that crying lady is kinda killing it unless she has a chemically active vagigi than i can understand why she is crying.... herpies suck :P
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i was talking about the fact that the person who posted this used a picture of david beckham - who is a cunt......and it is football that makes me think of those things - you twat..that was also what my stupid fok comment was about....and you just joined the ranks of stupid foks in my opinion. try looking and reading at what your on about in future.....
he's not mean.. this song is about awesome dirty whore vagina's.. they have radioactive chemicals you'll get super powers if you go in :D ... oh and mrsausage.. u seem a bit retarded to me hah we are such nice kids ^.~ ..

How then do you explain the lines: 'As I spread her thighs
My life flashes before my eyes
Soothing, disturbing
I'm intoxicated with fear [...] How many men lay dead
From this killing hole?'
