It is absolutely mythologizing reality which is NOT something I approve of (I think it's important to see reality as accurately as possible), but one does reach some cool-sounding conclusions when interpreting bands themselves as stories.

#i said this #music #blueboy is about being gay in the 90s and rejection of the self #the acadey is is about going through torment and being caught between eveything and nothing and never quite making it #but coming out happy on the other side #mcr is about being differney in america in the 2000s and loosing yourself and fighting with everything youve #got just to live your truest life and eventually coming back from the dead #obviously some bands give you less to work with. silverstein is about being from canada andmaking good music #but i do believe someone obsessed with any band could pullthis on any band #armor for sleep is about being the kid in the background and. things people like me understand.#there's a reason why afs is one of my all time faves and its about things i relate to. being sad alone invisible. dead.#waterparks is about being waterparks #no but Waterparks lyrics are consistently someof the most direct ones about being in the band out there #waterparks is about wondering if yourr ever going to go anywhere and getting swept away and #realizing you can leave home but everything you grew up with follows you and the fame hurts #the brobecks. the brobecsk is about. well #its about having unarticulable differneces taht drive you apart from those you know. it's about how some #of the best art isn't the most popular and sometimes that's where the art fits in the world.#alright thats all ive got right now. and most of these aren't even good lol #brand new is about being a broken person. about growing up and no longer having the teenage #anger inside of you only the empitness and pain and mental illness. and eventually putting an end to it. just as everyone realizing how #awful you really have been. but maybe on the other side in the dark healing
