As I've gotten a little older, it has taken on an undertone of an abusive man trying to explain himself to the woman he is abusing to me. I don't know if that was intentional or if I'm just reading to much into it, but if you've been around abusive people these are the kinds of excuses they tend to give. Is it just me?
That's normal, it's called cognitive bias. As you've gotten older you've had more experiences and seen more things and that colours the way you see new things. It's why, to bible thumpers, every song on here is about god in some twisted way.
