IMHO the song describes what it feels like to exist within society (school, workplace, family,...) but at the same time be alienated from this environment. Since we have to continue living, we have to give up our soul to a certain extent or at least deny it to the outside world. |

I think this is a bit of machismo or misogyny, not of the superficial kind, but born of close observation of female behavior, the material greed and relative ruthlessness of women within the patriarchy, their drive for power in relationships. When a middle-aged man discovers these traits in a partner of his own age, he begins to squint at young girls, since they are more erotically attractive to him anyway, only to find later that these supposedly innocent creatures begin to share the same traits as older women develop. The frustration that a man finds rooted in gender relations hasn't changed since the 1970s. Luckily, the trend of consuming drugs as a reaction to this insult (one of many that life has in store for a man) has weakened. |
