Elizabeth 512 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Gaga has written a lot of songs over the years and her lyrics have been analysed to the nth degree by fans and critics alike! So what I want to know is, what lyric do you think is her most devastating? Is it a heat-wrenchingly sad or devastatingly beautiful one? Is it an obvious one, or a lyric hidden deep within a song that most people haven't picked up on? For me, two which some to mind immediately are: “I'm made of plastic like a human doll, You push and pull me, I don't hurt at all” - Perfect Celebrity. This lyric really reminds me of the 5 foot 2 documentary where she's talking to Brandon and says, "And all these people will leave, right? They will leave and then I’ll be alone. And I go from everyone touching me all day and talking at me all day to total silence". It's a relatively overt lyric in the sense of it highlighting Gaga feeling like people view her as un-human and infallible, and the song is one of many in Gaga's discography which is themed around the perils of fame and celebrity. And “I'm gonna marry the dark, Gonna make love to the stark, I'm a soldier to my own emptiness, I'm a winner” - Marry the Night. The idea of 'marrying the darkness' and being a 'soldier to emptiness' is haunting, the idea that you're loyally committing yourself to your own melancholy and finding strength and solace from that part of you in order to achieve, I find very powerful. This part of the song always gives me goosebumps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
