GMF Lyrics

Cover art for GMF lyrics by John Grant

The song begins in a fun way because it could seem like a very self confident person (knowing himself) But perhaps only within his own confined boudaries as at least the music video shows a loner person. Whatever reason for that (primarily one self but others can also have kind of added to it), he has the challenges of entering society as a more normal person.

There are many things I do not understand and I do not have complete overview of the song (yet) but this one is fun: "i should not be attracted to males but you said that i should learn to love myself make up your mind, doctor frankenstein" it depicts the that there are several kinds of love at least on this earthly plane because of course we should love ourselves even though we are males and hence bodily love is not all as men can easily get lost to think (mind love is not either though, at least not on this plane)

you think i hate myself, it's you i hate, because you have the nerve to make me feel -> this could be a 'failed' relationship but still he is happy about it because he has seen some light being able to feel

but still the song sounds like one who quite much knows himself and has the opinion that it would be a homerun for a female to take him home which it might...

I do not know but interesting enough and good song
