also this a bit strange with when she sings "La la la laa" I picture an emancipated, dancing around her bedroom, imaging herself as the girl with long brown hair. idk how I get all of this when there arent even that many lyrics to this song. I see the rape idea too |

There are barely words to describe how much I can relate to this song. I do see it as about a sort of shy and insecure girl who sees another girl who with all her grace and long brown hair, becomes jealous and even more insecure, perhaps develops an eating disordeer "Her skin was tight, her manner was free.." The girl with the long brown hair is like a social butterfly and very confident. "Her body was free" means to be that she is thin and isnt afraid to be herself. "She was so pretty pretty as can be and I thought my God, why shouldn't it be me?" This is jealously. Im the type of person would not even have to know the girl, but just to see someone from far away looking so pretty and happy I get jealous and start to get angry with myself, assuming that they have the perfect life and how all the guys like her and things like that. "Don't put a stumbling block in front of someone who can't see. Don't put a beautiful body in front of someone who's hungry." Very anorexia-esque to me. It doesn't even have to mean the pretty girl at school but the pretty model girls in the magazines, "perfect bodies" are everywhere in the media and the on looker wishes she had that, she believes if she can only look partly like the pretty girl (by getting a thin, free body), she can a taste of what it is like to have that perfect life. "Don't tell me what's proper, anyone can see." It's not right to starve to yourself and the narrator knows that but she can't help herself because she just isnt happy and wants to be like the girl with the long brown hair |
