| Wavves – Afraid of Heights Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| This song contains several references to other songs, including "Creep" by Radiohead, "Drain Me" and "Lithium" by Nirvana, "I Wanna Be Sedated," by the Ramones, and possibly "Say It Ain't So" by Weezer. All of these songs are pessimistic, being about, respectively, self-hatred, co-dependent relationships, depression, mental illness, and alcoholism. The narrator is in a relationship, but feels both inadequate and unloved by his partner. Out of nihilistic despair, he turns to drugs and alcohol. | |
