I'll show you the rage I've hidden' is using the chains to represent the child's obligations and responsibilities set by his parents to attend church. In my biased opinion disregarding the moral and lesson of the song i feel Corey Taylor wrote this about a young victim who was molested by the priest at his local church where he attended mass.

I can guarantee you that my findings above are correct because I've been too neutral to be wrong.However now I'm presenting my biased opinion on what the song is specifically about (it may not be specifically about anything i could very well be wrong with my opinion below). The main point of the song which i vaguely summarized atop is presented from a neutral perspective. Now this is the point this analysis gets complicated. 'step inside, see the devil in I' because its about someone going into court and This is why i feel the songs hook-line is What is wrong for me may be right for you hence the term (devil in I) Reason why that was chosen as the title track is because the song is a tribute to all those who where innocent and speaking the truth, who ended up being tragically sentenced for lying before the court system (even though they where telling the truth) or in some cases they simply ended up being seen as evil for accusing someone who was guilty that almost everyone else see's as righteous and innocent. So moral of this song is what is right for you may be wrong for me. This same legal system is set in place to punish those that do wrong on a case to case basis that again relies heavily on the perspective of the judge. Think all the female teachers that only get fired for having sex with teenage men as appose to male teachers getting life sentences for having intercourse with teenage female students. This is why many trials in court are determined more by what the majority feels is right or wrong (the gut feeling and sense of morality that is represented by god) then by what is actually legal. What is right to you may be wrong to another person. These days we have evolved enough as a race to know that wrong and right is all perspective. Summary: It's a victims perspective on taking a guilty person to court, but more than that its a song about modern complexities of wrong an right and how in the past religion has clouded the judgment of people making them think those that serve the lord are right and those that do not are wrong and guilty of not telling the truth if they speak out against god. Song MeaningFirst I'l do a summary of the meaning then I'l break down the lyrics to my interpretation.

You'll realize I'm not your devil, anymore I know you'll find your answers in the end You should've burned when you turned on everyone You'll realize I'm not your devil anymore Too many times, we've let it come to this
