It is about a man who was MistakenForInsane [[SanitySlippage slowly]] [[FromNobodyToNightmare going from a]] KnightTemplar to a SpreeKiller in order to escape [[BedlamHouse the asylum he's being held in.]]

7	Our VillainProtagonist is a man who is, as mentioned to above, taken to a BedlamHouse after being MistakenForInsane (or is just [[FauxAffablyEvil pretending to be sane either out of denial or sadism]]) after [[NoodleIncident some unknown series of events]]. At first, [[KnightTemplar he considers himself the]] OnlySaneMan, until he realizes just how awful the asylum really is. Eventually, he [[SanitySlippage goes completely mad]] and rallies up the other patients to [[AxCrazy murder their way to the outside world]]. [[BolivianArmyEnding The song refuses to mention the end-result of the mutiny]], likely in order to invoke NothingIsScarier, but [[{{Fanon}} it's widely believed]] [[TheBadGuyWins the narrator managed to escape, in order to find innocents to torture with his newly-found sadism.]]

11	To be fair, this theory ''might'' be relying a bit too much on FridgeHorror and Fanon, but given just how damn [[NightmareFuel/{{Metallica}} horrifying]] this song is, I tried submitting it anyway. Plus, an earlier "Met" candidate [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=6vic3f9h1cy5qivsenw8llok&page=9242#comment-231050 got cut]] later on down the line (namely [[Music/KillEmAll the Phantom Lord]]).
