A Corner Lyrics

I mean it
I wouldn't go ouside and walk around
They may fear for your life
But I've reached this conclusion
everyone's in a corner
face to the wall
I never looked the other way
I'm not allowed to at all
great is my confusion
It never lets me be
no one said to be here
I was punished by me
and there's a weeping fire
that's high as a moutain
and we go all the way up
to the top
great is my confusion
It never lets me down
everyone's in a corner
they'll never turn around

Being "put in the corner" as a kid for punishment... As adults, do we put ourselves in the corner, blinding and punishing ourselves for confusing reasons?

Cover art for A Corner lyrics by John Frusciante

Everyone is in a corner suggests that everyone kind of punishes themselves for things. Maybe in anger saying I shouldn't have done that or it could be as strong as killing themselves. People get confsued when punshing themselves as we are the great pretenders who end up confusing ourselves and forgetting what it is we have punished ourselves for and then believing in our lies (making up reasons for why we've did this to ourselves) and therefore making ourselves become more confused. But we keep on going back to "the corner" because we now feel that it's actualyl part of us and part of what we have to do in our life. I've no idea if this is right.
