| Well my brothers and sisters what i have heard is bit different from what he has written.Many interpretations of the lyrics exist, however the song is about how people are wrongly regarded differently depending on how they die. The song also appears to be influenced by the case of Kurt Cobain, as reflected in another SOAD song called "The Ballad of Kurt Cobain" that was sometimes played in live performances. Chop Suey! also hearkens back to a famous picture of Kurt Cobain performing during the In Utero tour with a stage prop behind him making him look as though he had an angel's "wings." In an interview, Daron Malakian is claimed to have said: "The song is about how when people die, they will be regarded differently depending on the way they pass. Like, if I were to die from a drug overdose, everyone would say I deserved it because I abused drugs, hence the line 'Angels deserve to die'." |

| I argee with how you could figure that. They aren't terrorists, but they know alot about how something like 9/11 could happen. Serj was probably writing about his point of view or from a different perspective about why terrorists do what they do. 9/11 was just something that happened because of those things. |

| well another message of the toxicty album is in the jet pilot one, in the end serj says , "where were the eyes of a horse of a jet pilot", prhapes he is meaning that after the plane crash in the wtc, the eyes (of the terrorist have disapear, or another interpertation is that bin laden closed their eyes by saying that they were going to heaven after his death... |

Hell. This is again like the Serj vs. Daron controversy. It was like, every song had a message why SOAD aren't together anymore. That was lol, and so is this. I can search you for lyrics that could be interpreted, lyrics that contain "too much". Ah.  |
