Cover art for Julien lyrics by Placebo

"Even ten will not placate you"

I think it's interesting that Placebo is latin for "I will please/ I will placate"

As if the drugs will never fully please him. Makes me feel like the music itself is a "placebo" or a way to please someone who is looking for something else. And I adore the concept of "slow motion suicide" like he's slowly killing himself but, it's not quick and painless. It's a drawn out torture.
