Cover art for Torture Me lyrics by Red Hot Chili Peppers

WOW. A traditional RHCP style song. It's great - new stuff like stadium arcadium - but keeping the old groove too. Great, upbeat yet downtowned song. The lyrics are clearly talking about a whirlwind of emotion and circumstance that is bringing him down. It's like everything is tormenting and torturing him and he'll just sit back at take it. He's 'happy to be sad' and he'll take the torture. Thanks to laurz, he feels like he's in the middle of a storm and around the world are disasters he can't stand.
