    This song gives me chills!!!!!

    it is very twisted!
    I think it's meaning is that he loves this person so much, he'd do absolutely anything for her.

    As for the "that's not the way we do it here" maybe hes referring to the way society shows their love for another. We cheat, we lie, we fight, yet we say "i love you."
    I guess he's realizing that he would never do that to anyone, so to prove his love, he'd lay on the tracks,
    feel hot steel screaming at him,
    I don't know though, this song is a bit tricky with that line. :d

    thrice for the win! :d

    The song is mainly saying that youll sacrifice alot for the one you love so that theyll never have to feel the pain. so its showing alot of love :O

    I think its a twisted love song. He would do all these things to show love but "thats not the way they do it here"
