Comet 319 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I feel like it’s a neutral confession or almost exorcism of dependency. A self realization that I am my own worst enemy. Because the rest of the album leads to Babylon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidLuis198 784 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I see this song as the materialization of all the things she said and studies about Radical Acceptance, the mantra 'my biggest enemy is me' is more of a way to accept that so she can move on and work on it than self-deprecation I don't know how to write in english Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be neutral. Accepting that you have something and you need medication for it to be ok and you are going to be ok is not really sad or depressing, at least to me. red wine, cheap perfume and a filthy pout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time the chorus hits my brain starts eating these words like it’s the truth ‘If religion be the cause of disunity, then irreligion is surely to be preferred.’ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAMS 1,685 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 3 hours ago, NFRatwell said: There’s a different between glorification and normalization of mental illness and medication. Gaga isn’t glorifying it, she’s expressing the pain she gets from her illness and how she needs drugs to cope. That’s not really a positive topic. Again, bringing light to the topic of mental health and managing medication...allowing others who struggle to connect with another person...not really negative. Tough subject, but it's something that happens and I'm glad Gaga is able to talk about it. GAMS, gay popstar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A self realization that I am my own worst enemy. Because the rest of the album leads to Babylon. Love this interpretation. I always feel this way when I listen to the album: that every step of the journey is completely essential and that it all culminates at the joyous release of Babylon.

HausOfAntonio 7,822 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Neither. Its a real song, reducing it to “positive or negative” sterilises it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
