| Avril Lavigne – Sk8er Boi Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I think that everyone who is saying that Avril isn't "punk" and that her fans should go listen to "real music" is really stupid and ignorant. Avril may not be your typical "punk" music, but neither is The Used, but their music doesn't suck. The truth is, there are so many diverse genres out there that if someone calls a band/artist a certain genre and it's not 100% dead on correct, they get ridiculed like crazy. I don't see why so many bad-ass hardcore "punks" bash Avril if she is not punk. Why would you slam on someone whos music you do not listen to? People have their own brains and are allowed to think whatever they please. Avril's lyrics are relatable, relative to the teenagers life, hence why she has so many fans. I do not think that she should be bashed on so much by people who do not listen to this "kind" of music. She does have talent, whether you like it or not. Everyone has some talent. Sigh. |

As I was walking through a life one morning The sun was out, the air was warm but ohh, I was cold, - Anorexia, or any eating disorder for that matter, could and probably will lead to anemia (A pathological deficiency in the oxygen-carrying component of the blood, measured in unit volume concentrations of hemoglobin, red blood cell volume, or red blood cell number.) which causes you to feel cold all of the time, even in hot weather. - and though I must have looked a half a person, to tell the tale in my own version, It was only then that I felt whole. - When reaching your goal weight, you feel a sense of completion, and in an eating disorderd persons mind, reaching an extremly low goal weight makes them feel as if they have made themselves complete, that they are now a whole person. - Do you believe in something beautiful? Then, get up and be it - If you believe that you can be something beautiful, don't sit around and admire what all of those models look like, get up and do something about it. Help yourself, diet, etc,. - Fighting for the smallest goal: to get a little self-control. I know how hard you try. I see it in your eyes. - "Fighting for the smallest goal, to get a little self control," is referring to what eating disorders are most commonly known for, control. When everything around you is spinning out of control, and you can't do anything about it, you grasp onto what little control you have left, and you will fight to get more and more of that control, until it controls you. - Call your friends, 'cause we've forgotten What it's like to eat what's rotten, and what's eating you alive, might help you to survive. - "Call your friends", to me, this isn't meaning literally call up your friends, but to make it obvious that your eating disorder is there, make it noticeable so that you're friends WILL help you. Since you've forgotten why it's so good for you to eat, maybe they will help you. "What's eating you alive, might help you to survive," means that your eating disorder is eating you alive, when you recieve no food, your body starts to eat it's fat, so your eating disorder is eating you alive, but helping you to survive because of that small amount of control that it gives you. - We went on, as we were on a mission, latest in a Grand Tradition. - They went on as if there was no problem, that it was just a mission that they HAD to complete or else something tragic might happen. I'm thinking that the "Grand Tradition" is the whole pressure to be thin, and maybe something about pro-anorexia is explored more. - Ohh, what did we find? It was Ego who was flying the banner, - "It was ego who was flying the banner," means that their ego was in control, and once that it was shot down, the "banner" or in this case, their emotions, were shot down. - Me and Mia, Ann and Ana, ohh, we'd been unkind. - Mia - Bulimic, Ana - Anorexia, "We'd been unkind," could be the influence that they have had on other people, could also be that they got out of control when it was just meant to be an expierement or smething. - Do you believe in something beautiful? Then, get up and be it Fighting for the smallest goal: to get a little self-control. I see it in your eyes, I see it in your spine, - "See it in your eyes," when forcing yourself to throw up, afterwards your eyes are extremley blod shot and teary. When anorexic, your bones show, and your spine is a bone. - But call your friends, 'cause we've forgotten What it's like to eat what's rotten And what's eating you alive, Might help you to survive Even the nights that could get better. And even the days aren't all that bad. - May be referring to that it's not hard to do what they do, and that the facts that they know what they are doing is unhealthy, don't really seem to matter anymore. - And after a week of fighting, As more and more it seems the right thing - The more and more that they do what they are doing, starving and purging, the more addictive it becomes, and it feels right because they feel good. - Do you believe in something beautiful? Then get up and be it Fighting for the smallest goal: To gain a little self-control Won't anybody here just let you disappear? Not doctors, nor your mom nor dad, But me and Mia, Ann and Ana Know how hard you try, Don't you see it in my eyes? - "Won't anybody here, just let you disappear, not doctors nor your mom nor dad," Once someone is diagnosed with an eating disorder, treatment usually stars asap, willing or unwilling to get better, the person is put into some sort of treatment and monitered intensely. No one will let you get as thin as you want to get because you are being monitered. "Me and Mia, Ann and Ana know how hard you try, don't you see it in my eyes?" Referring to that his eyes are blood shot as well, and he understands that you might be going through beacuse he's going through it as well. - Sick to death of my dependence, Fighting food to find trancendence. - Sick of fighting food to become better than everyone else, sick of only thinking and worrying about food and weight and nothing else. - Fighting to survive. More dead, but more alive. - Fighting food to survive in everything else that is so chaotic. The person may be dying from and ED but still feeling more alive than ever. - Cigarettes and speed to live, And sleeping pills to feel forgiven. All that you contrive, And all that you're deprived. - Cigarretes and Speed to give you so much energy and not give up, to keep you apetite down completely, and sleeping pills to come down off the high of speed. Sleeping pills to get you to sleep from those racing thoughts from speed. All of those lies and ideas that you create just make you more deprived of what you really need, food and nutrients. - All the bourgeois social angels Telling you you've got to change. - bourgeois means middle class, or average. Social angles are the friends who are trying to save you(which would make them angels) and your friends are average weight, and they are trying to tell you that it's okay to be average and normal. - Don't have any idea. They'll never see so clear. - But your friends don't really have any idea why you do this to yourself, and they will never see why as clear as you because they are not in the same position as you are. As much as they will try to help, it won't make a difference because all the reasons to do it are so much stronger (control) - But don't forget what it really means to hunger strike, When you don't really need Some are dying for the cause, but that don't make it yours. - Don't forget what the real purpose to hunger strike is, things with actual purposes. Some people are dying from hunger strikes for a great cause, and what you are doing isn't so important compared to other causes. It doesn't make your cause a good reason to hunger strike, but that isn't going to stop you so people remind you that "Some are dying for a cause, but that don't make it yours," - And even the nights, they could get better... - And all of these problems could get better if you would just try. - So, that's my opinion on the song. MY opinion, not what it acctually is. But I have an eating disorder and that's what i means to me. There are MANY meanings that could be coming from this song. The writer could have not even written it ABOUT an eating disorder adn it could have a TOTAL abstract meaning. No one knows, but everyone can think about it. |
