yeah, this is the beginning of the end, as keyman stated. The Funeral of God is a concept album that deals with the idea of God getting so fed up with humanity and our sin that he gives up on us and turns his back forever. i see this song as God sending one of his prophets, much like he did in the old testament. not only does everyone ignore the prophet, but they go as far as brutally murdering him. this is an example of humanity wanting nothing to do with God.

I believe this song is the begining of our end. Here we see God becoming infuriated at us for continually turning away. The album was based on this, that God becomes so angered, He departs from us. And here is the first step.

Well since the comment box asks what this song means to me, it sounds like he's pretty pissed off at someone and is getting his revenge by cutting him into pieces. It's probably totally off, but that's what the words say to me.
