The question asked in order
To save her life or take it
The answer no to avoid death
The answer yes would make it
Make it
[Chorus]
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
All heads are bowed in silence
To remember her last sentence
She answered him knowing what would happen
Her last words still hanging in the air
(In the air) [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/f/flyleaf/cassie.html ]
[Chorus]
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
Say yes to pull the trigger
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
Say yes and pull the trigger
How many will die?
I will die
I, I,
Will say YES!
And Cassie pulled the trigger
[Chorus]
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And Cassie pulled the trigger
Do you believe in God
Do you believe in God
Written on the bullet
And I will pull the trigger.
This song is about cassie bernall, a girl who was killed in the columbine shooting. One of the gunmen allegedly asked her if she believed in god and told her that if she said no they would let her live. She said yes and thet killed her. She was a modern day martyr.
As people said, its about the columbine shooting, a man asked cassie if she beleived in god, if she said no he wouldnt kill her, if she said yes he would. She says yes he kills her. Then he asked that to rachel, she says yes, he shoots her, but she doesnt die, he asked her again, she still says yes, and he shoots her again and she dies. Its about how if you really truly beleive in something that you wouldn't betray it for anything. Luv this song, love flyleaf they rok
Emo chic and stigmata is right its about two girls named cassie and racheal that believed in god and the school cloumbine shootings was a guy that was killing kids that believed in god... There is also a book about it called she said yes it explains better xd flyleaf is a great band too check more songs out by them if you already havent!

She had to chose between her life and god.
She chose god. I would do the same.
I wouldn't like to live if i don't have faith and god.

This song is amzing it took me a while to figure out the meaning but the meaning is very sad but great what cassie step up for what she believes in!!!
The story of cassie is so true i have read the book twice. Cassie said yes for what she believed in. Cassie was asked "do you believe in god" her answer was "yes" the gunmen then said right before he shot her "then go meet him" she died for her maker and i look up to her for that.
I love this song i never knew the story behind it but i feel bad for the girl who lost her life i dont really believe in god (i believe in god in a way) but i hope that girl is in a better place... She ia an amazing girl for what she did that horrible day...
This is about the columbine high school shooting which i believe they caused not the two shooters. The girls teased the two shooters over and over for not go to their church and calling him atheist,so one day he shot them but he asked them if they believed in god they both said yes he said may god have mercy be on your soul. And save you and shot one then the other.
This song is about an untrue rumor regarding cassie bernall and the columbine massacre on april 20th, 1999. It is said that either eric harris or dylan klebold, the two shooters, put a gun in her face and asked her "do you believe in god? " to which she answered 'yes' and was killed. The truth is that she was hiding during the shootings and praying extremely loudly, thus allowing one of the shooters to find her. Eric harris put his head below the table under which she was hiding, said "peek-a-boo" and killed her with one shot. However, one girl, valeen schnurr, was asked if she believed in god, to which she said, " yes, err, no, it's what my family has taught me to believe. " she was then left where she stood by the harris, unharmed. Rachel scott was killed by four shots, but it was stated by the fbi that neither harris nor klebold killed someone after answering 'yes' to 'do you believe in god? '
Cassie is about two different girls, both of whom died in the shootings at columbine high school. Their names were cassie bernall and rachel joy scott. They were both asked by the shooters, eric harris and dylan klebold if they believed in god, and they both said "yes", and were shot and killed for their beliefs.
Cassie's mother wrote a book called "she said yes", and rachel's parents wrote a book called "rachel's tears". They're both beautiful books. Both girls were strong people, and stood up for what they believed in.
