I'm having one of the worst times... this year's been so difficult. My friends tell me that listening to ethel is not helping me but I swear her melodies and her music's demeanor is what helps me go through these days :)
"Pissing on the stove to put the fire out" I know she doesn't know what this means but maybe subconsciously, its a reference to poverty. Maybe having to cook food in inventive ways and can't spare water to put the self-made fire out. If he's the fire, and she pisses on him, maybe it echoes "touch me til i vomit'. Her body reacts in repulsed and averted ways to the acts.
"From the start they knew you were wrong" He was born damaged in some way, either in spirit or mind or both. And of course that leads into "you were wrong" to do what he did
"You can't win 'em all" Her brother was smooth and could have had anyone, he wanted her because he wasnt supposed to. He can never "win" her though. Not in spirit and its not like this could ever be a relationship.
Where did you get this name from for your song? Yeah you put beer and cum down my throat and tried to take me off this planet, yet I am still here and I do not know you. I am 27 how old are you? You are going for someone much younger that I do not know anymore its been almost 6 years since I met eyes with the man.
How the hell do you tell an artist their art saved you in a dark time without trauma-dumping or being weird?? Like i know you cant you just gotta keep it to yourself, but damn i hope she realises Ethel's persona story is healing
i listen to this whenever i'm reminded of my ex who SA'd me. even though she was a girl, with the way she acted, she was on the same level as a man's action.
