Song that fits a character

I chose the song "How I Could Just Kill a Man" by Rage Against the Machine to describe Eva, specifically when she decides to kill her favorite son Plum. It is very difficult for the audience to grasp how Eva could kill her child, just as a lyric from the song states: "Here is something you can't understand, how I could just kill a man!" Also, the manner in which she kills her son (burning him to death) is very violent and seems like a brutal way to kill someone, especially since the reason she does it (supposedly) is based on love, to put him out of her misery. The song is also very violent sounding, so I feel as though the song fits very well.
