Song meaning of GLITTER AND VIOLENCE by Nessa Barrett

Hey there, music lovers! Today, I wanna chat about a song that really hit me in the feels - "Glitter and Violence" by Nessa Barrett. Let me tell ya, this track is a whole mood.

So, the lyrics start off with "They only want you when you're young, that's what they told me." Man, that line really got me thinking about how society puts so much pressure on being young and shiny. It's like we're just toys to be played with until we're no longer fun. And then there's this part, "Chewing on ice, isn't that what you like? Shake it for you, honey." It's like she's calling out someone who only sees her as a showpiece, not a real person with feelings.

And then, the chorus kicks in with "Blood in the water, everyone wants her, somebody's daughter's making money tonight." It's like she's painting this picture of a world where people are just hungry for fame and fortune, willing to do anything to get it. The juxtaposition of glitter and violence really drives home the idea that behind all the glamour, there's a darker side to it all.

In the second verse, she sings, "They only want you in a cage, for your eyes only, the American stage, for the lost and unholy." This part made me think about how sometimes we're trapped in this cycle of seeking validation and attention, even if it means losing a part of ourselves in the process.

Overall, "Glitter and Violence" is a powerful song that delves into the complexities of fame and the price some people are willing to pay for it. Nessa Barrett's raw vocals and the haunting melody really bring out the emotions behind the lyrics.

So, next time you give this song a listen, really pay attention to the words and let them sink in. It's more than just a catchy tune - it's a reflection of the world we live in today.

Until next time, keep vibing to those tunes and let the music speak to your soul. Peace out, music fam!
