Cover art for Requiem Revisited lyrics by Lawrence Arms, The

has anyone here ever read lolita by vladimir nabokov (stanley kubrick also made it into a movie)? this song bears an uncanny resemblence to the story, not to mention that in the book the first sentence of chapter 33 is ramsdale revisited. ramsdale is the town where the main character finds lolita and begins his decline... and a requiem is a funeral song, or an actual funeral... i dunno, just a thought.
