the song “take my picture” by filter (does anyone else remember this song?) got a whole lot better for me today when i found out that the lyrics are literal and not some metaphor. like, the lead singer really did get fucked up on an airplane and take all his clothes off and start fighting with the flight attendants who tried to stop him.
“awake on my airplane
my skin is bare
my skin is theirs
i feel like a newborn”
“could you take my picture?
‘cause I won’t remember”
“i don’t believe in
in your sanctity
your privacy”
“and i feel like a newborn
kicking and screaming”
“hey dad what do you think about your son now?”
