This song was my first real exposure to “radio censorship”, was eye opening for me. The song is a metaphor for generational child abuse and a cry for help, fighting against the urge to descend into the same pattern themselves and breaking. and then the radio cut turned it into a damned anthem of violence removing the context.

Go watch The Vengeful One. Not only is the song a banger by itself but the video is more pertinent to current events than ever.

No I don’t remember as I was not in a recording studio with Disturbed in 1999.
