The Dark Reality of Cold-Blooded Killers

Trouble's song 'Assassin' delves into the grim and unsettling world of those who take lives without remorse. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of individuals who, driven by hatred or madness, commit acts of violence against those who strive to make a positive difference in the world. The song questions the moral and ethical grounds on which these assassins operate, highlighting the sheer insanity and cold-blooded nature of their actions.

The repeated questioning of 'What gives you the right' underscores the bewilderment and outrage felt by society towards these killers. It challenges the listener to reflect on the value of human life and the senselessness of such violence. The term 'cold-blooded killer' is used to emphasize the lack of empathy and the calculated nature of these acts, suggesting a deep-seated psychological or moral corruption.

The song also touches on the broader implications of such violence, suggesting that these assassins are not just taking lives but are also destroying any chance for peace. The line 'Assassin, were you sent from hell' adds a layer of metaphysical or existential dread, implying that such individuals are almost otherworldly in their malevolence. By calling the assassin a 'stupid man of hate,' the song ultimately condemns these acts as not only evil but also fundamentally foolish and self-destructive.
