"What if I say you're not like the others"...!! This Foo Fighters song has a lot of symbolism for me. David gets going and the sequentially numbered adversaries line up opposite. It's obvious there'll be some kind of confrontation...
1) Sequential numbers for me symbolizes the age parts of me
2) I isolated them, hid them, put them far away... and in most sense, they became adversarial.
3) Adversarial in that, I'll as much fight their part in me, as embrace it
4) Like David has the red screen exploding at the last moment, pushing back the adversaries, I too have my shut down push back
5) It can often be hard rockin' angst driven... a part of me that woke in me in 1979 with Punk Rock, but pointed to the Clash.
Symbolism can be abstract, personal, or overt, meaningful or not, and for me, this is meaningful about my pushing and pushing to get to those ages in me. I'm trying guys, stay with me buddies, we'll get this!!
