| This interpretation also confirms the title "Me", it's a letter to himself from himself. | |

My view of this song is that it's the speaker's internal dialect, the main voice being the "bad" side of himself or a side representing his actions or feelings that aren't great. It's the side of him that gets high (got a plane in the middle of the night), the side of him that is violent (i nearly killed somebody), the side of him that doesn't care for his health maybe through drinking or smoking (i gave you something [bad health] you can never give back), the side of him that doesn't want to see his family, the side of him that is depressed (i was thinking about killing myself) and etc you get the drift. "Don't you mind, don't you mind" is his bad side saying to his good side "Don't worry, I got this. I'm gonna keep doing my shit" even though he knows it's not good for him. It's an incredibly powerful song when you look at it through this perspective. It's painfully truthful and jarring. One of my favourite lyrics. |
