The saddest part is that one of his innocent victims was is so much pain during being tortured to death that he said ' just get it over and done with already'. That is what really just 'got' me. :( :( :( Check out the other music video of this song, some of the comments have the best explaination of the meaning of the song. Which is going deeper into the problem and to find some sort of understanding or realisation to prevent future issues such as these.

@yellowsneakers234 oh thank you sooo much dude. yeah after i left this comment in a few hours i finally figured out it was about a serial killer but you finally cleared up for me that the check underneath the floorboards actually meant the bodies were down there. thank you very much dude.

@Spice938 it's simply about one of America's notorious serial killers. He killed several young boys and literally buried them under his house. And this was back when America was still "innocent" so it came as even more of a shock. Just wiki his name and there's all the info u need.

Song's depressing, but mind blowingly good.

When you make a video to a song, you should'nt literaly translate every word man.
