I really hate to agree with the Couch and I don't on most of his remarks or his tone. Maybe I can be more critical because I don't find others' work bad for a hobby. I don't agree that you need to know what his "previous" was, just that the jury was swayed by it (presumably in the sentencing phase, as they wouldn't get to hear it in the earlier phases of the trial). This method of sentencing, the fact he has a gun in his drawer and the death penalty would seem to place the song in America. Where I do agree with the upholstered one is that it's hard to figure out what this is all about. I don't feel I need it explained to me in essay form, but I don't know who was shot by whom or why. I suspect it's someone called Rose, but that's as far as I've got. It is entirely possible that I am just being a bit thick  Also, "The dark queen rains down" is not one of your best lines. A queen raining? Or is it a play on words for "reigning?" But you can't reign down. I don't think this metaphor works very well. I like the music. It has a good old time folk feel to it and it's well delivered. I hope I don't come across as negative. I just feel this is basically a good song that could be improved.
