Taylor Swift – Sparks Fly Lyrics

Dude - John Mayer has brown eyes... I'd say that's a no... also, the other two songs are at least SEMI relationship songs. This is a tale of a one night stand. Especially if you listen you the OG version, it's obvious. |

Eminem – My Mom Lyrics
| 13 years ago
|
This song is about Eminem being the victim of Munchausen's Syndrome by proxy*. He has mentioned it in many other songs ("Cleaning Out My Closet" comes to mind) and has talked about it in interviews. It's an extremely straightforward song. He begins it by stating that he knows people are probably tired of hearing about his mom, but that he wants to tell the story of how he became hooked on valium as a kid. He goes on to describe his mother poisoning him, his teachers noticing the fact that he seemed medication, the fact that it gave him stomachaches. In the chorus, he is realizing he has become her, essentially - a drug addict.
*"Münchausen syndrome by proxy has been documented in the parent or guardian of a child. The adult ensures that his or her child will experience some medical affliction, therefore compelling the child to suffer treatment for a significant portion of their youth in hospitals. Furthermore, a disease may actually be initiated in the child by the parent or guardian." |
