Avenged Sevenfold - Natural Born Killer Lyrics Meaning

It's actually rather simple. Natural born killer is a nod at the film "natural born killers" Basically he's just talking about how killing is compulsive for him, the idea brought from the film that it possibly isn't his fault it's just who he is, he was born to kill.

The main point though is actually at how the media worsens the situation nearly glorfying them, everyone knows names like "jack the ripper" "columbine" "bonnie an clyde" this is why he says "another killer from a broken home until you covered me with manic fame" he was just another violent nobody who came from a terrible upbringing "broken home" then the media showed his face everywhere and elevated him to the point where he was an icon "covered me with manic fame"
"another story with a mangled scene" Saying how the media feeds off of serial killers to fill their papers with, natural born killers the film also studies this as there is a reporter that follows the murdering couple till the end, where they kill him. He also sings about the media believing they can understand killers and why they're doing what they did "you wanna know about it?" but actually he'll continue to surprise them because he's not like them "we'll ima be fucking with you every time" indeed nodding towards the film which in turn nods towards media's attitude he says "when you ask about it" in the film the reporter try's to get their stories, the film points out about how reporters actually do try to get the killers stories just for the papers and paycheck not because they care. He points out he'll play the poor child act as every killer almost always does and blames it on their terrible childhood "you can rest assured i'll give you my best side"
The media are practically his friends and his link to the public as they make him an international star although notorious still he has actually never been more known and recognised in his life "seems we all have friends to find"

the chorus actually has a double meaning as in the film the killing couple do not die alone if they die at all (cliffhanger) and how he won't leave without her as the couple a modern day bonnie and clyde are always together. "so die alone, this is the one thing that i won't do"
But it also means how he's so well known even if he died, he wouldnt die alone and unknown he would die lavished in fame and unforgotten, plus all the people he'd killed he'd have brought with him.

Near the end his tone is mournful in the song, as he's grown/ing tired of his killings or has stopped, the point being that he's waiting for the days to go by with nothing to really do in his life, he possibly kills again "no hesitating you pull the trigger and your stories left behind" but more likely he's saying how once you kill your story will remain long after you die as people try to analyzse your mind, he then completes with the media being tired of him and instead wishing for the next best story (his capture) "i know you want to see me fry" but he plans to bring them all down with him, "like my soul you won't survive"

The end verse has a powerful meaning saying if he (the serial killer) was to die unknown, it would free people from the papers, from the constant spiral of fear. "crush the fish lens we all see through" as no longer would killing for attention work, as currently it is the ultimate form of attention grabbing. "to kill the glare" the reason why we should do this is it would expose the ugliness we hold true, the ugliness being the media, the world and how the spurn on serial killers with their news reports.

While the killer feels guilty for the killings "this is the guilt that consumes you" he believes he's on a mission of a higher purpose with a heavy burden "I'm begging you to walk in my shoes anytime"
In a strange, twisted righteous way he is above all temoptation "can't bribe me with money, cant shower me with shame"

The idea is that on his higher plane of realisation he can see the world for what it really is like we cant "the way i see,you must be blind" "expose the ugliness we hold true" he believes what we take as truth is not.
