So many thoughts about
"With laquered claws I beckon
Grand sweeping gestures
And fanged expressions -
For I am the villain in every story.
All I ever wanted was to be more than
Cracked clean slate
And tear stains
Midnight confessions
Forgive me in all my
Failed perfections"
Specifically "cracked clean slate". A clean slate is a fresh start, what happens when its cracked? Was it already cracked when it was handed to you, not really a clean state, there was still all the pressure and all the expectation of perfection weighing on you? Did you crack it? Was it a faulty slate and you were never gonna be able to reach that perfection because it was never possible to begin with?
Also all those hard sounds, laquered claws, cracked clean, its so evocative of hard unyielding surfaces and also them breaking at the same time.
And everyone is the hero of their own story, "I am the villain in every story" you dont even get to see yourself as your own hero.
This song - Portrait of Us, by Seven Spires - I initially assumed it was a jilted lover kind of song, but then listening again, and then when the music video released, this is a song of bitterness at ones parents for unrealistic pressures and expectations.
The refrain mostly in the background
"Am I your carbon copy
Am I your unborn son"
Its chilling. Am I supposed to be exactly like you? Did I fail the moment I was born for being a daughter?
It might specifically be angry at ones father actually. Because of
"I am a portrait of you,
me, and
Her eyes sparkle in illustrated firelight
While yours are wide in apprehension"
This is towards the end of the song (the bridge maybe?). The mother is eyes sparkling she seems fine, while dad is apprehensive at all this pain and rage being expressed at him.
More thoughts that arent quite in words yet about portraits and "pain and blame and judgement are stored in your reflection" the kid isnt at fault they reflect the parenting something along those lines.
Also its just incredibly catchy and rhythmic and fun.

When you go, your footprints will fill with grass. Moss shall cover your tombstone, and as the sun rises, green shall spread over all, in all its shades and hues. This verdigris will overtake your swords and your coins and your battlements and, try as you might, all you hold dear will succumb to it. Your skin, your bones. Your virtue - The Green Knight 2021
Portrait of Dev Patel in his role as Gawain in The Green Knight. Acrylic paint and embroidery floss on Cotton. 17 inches diameter.

Hello, please don't skip me.🙏💔💔
Hello world, these are my brothers’ children. They were deprived of education in this war and became uneducated, so it was necessary to educate them. I began to participate with them and educate them away from schools because schools and educational centers have become shelters for displaced families.

I hope you help me to provide them with a suitable environment, support them, and provide them with the necessary life for them so that they can live like any child in the world. I hope you help me and support them. Thank you.

Some nuggets
The last portrait in the second image is a small edit by me as there isn't a hatless version of that expression
