Elliott Smith – Pictures of Me Lyrics 15 years ago
sweet deity, please speak to me.
today was the day that i realized that this song was about me.
as stupid acting smart, it was easy to see everyone else screwing up.
it gets to the point that you gotta turn off the inner monologue and take a look around-
stop with the charade, and realize that the stupid front you put up in order to get through the day is adding pictures to the photo album of the world that are just totally wrong.
those personal hells are every relationship i've been in, and every one of those guys loved to see me on my fucking knees. here i thought it was just for kicks, and now it is obvious that i am the victim of my own dirty tricks.
i know that elliott had different images in mind when he wrote the lyrics, but holy hell i am certain that i feel what he was feeling- and thats what a song means
