Rotten

https://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/User/Rotten The lyrics of "Rotten" by User depicts a complex and somewhat enigmatic storyline that is open to interpretation. It begins with the singer expressing a difficulty in understanding someone - "I can't understand you" - and then goes on with a series of seemingly unrelated and disjointed phrases like "Rotten," "Bleeding," "Hoping," and "Twist your limb," that indicate a sense of despair and confusion. The narrative then moves to an apparent reference to an act of self-destruction - "Why'd you put that gun to your head?" - that hints at the darker and more chaotic nature of the song. The lyrics then take a turn towards a more surreal and mystical tone as the singer mentions "Forgotten by the spirit wind" and "Given another chance" that point towards a theme of rebirth or reincarnation. The reference to Curtis may refer to a famous singer and “Rotten threw the star from his chest” has a strong reference to famous musicians who may have became disillusioned about the game of fame but this can be debated. The song then ends with the singer imploring the listener to forget about the pain and hurt of the past and focus on a brighter and more optimistic future - "Forget about all the hate…Forget about why it hurts…Forget about what you can't…forget about what I sang." Overall, the lyrics of "Rotten" are a complex and introspective attempt to delve into the human psyche and explore themes of hope, despair, and redemption.
