    The manga was written in 2003. This song was released in 2002. And there are a lot of Death Note based themes. Trains, heart attacks, and people being possesed to kill themselves. Its simply to blantantly the same.



    Please note, the video doesn't show gore, but it does have a little blood. And lots of death refferences. All animated though. If you watched death note, you won't find this violent at all.

    The Faint is the band. Song is Agenda Suicide.

    The song itself is about the giant ratrace people run in life... called "work" and how frustrating it is. Its told from the perspective of someone commiting suicide, thinking about everything he worked for.

    The lyrics are as follows...

    You can follow logic
    Or contest it all
    The work solution makes the common house a home

    The element of progress
    That you mentioned's gone
    And de-evolved to something you were headed toward

    As I laid and died
    The things I think
    Did I waste my time?
    I think I did
    I worked for life

    All we want are just pretty little homes
    All the work makes pretty little homes

    Like a cast shadow
    Like a father's dream
    Have a cut out son
    Was the worst disease
    You get that pretty little home

    As I laid and died
    The things I think
    I don't want to regret what I did
    And work for life

    All we want is just pretty little homes
    All our work makes pretty little homes
    Agenda suicide
    Drones work hard before they die
    And give up on pretty little homes

    Like a cast shadow
    Like a cast shadow
    Like a cast shadow
    Like a cast shadow
    Like a cast shadow

    Our work makes pretty little homes
    Our work makes pretty little homes
    Agenda suicide
    Drones work hard before they die
    And give up on pretty little homes

    I find the end to be quite disturbing.

    It didn't remind me of Death Note at all. I mean it seems more about the life and fight of a salary man in a monotonous and stressful life driven by the worlds need to move forwards than anything else.

    Actually... the writer of death note originally wrote the story with the only moral of the story that people die all the time... a moral which the video shows very well.

    I didn't think the second intro was that bad... it could have been worse...

    It could have been this...
