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.
