Pretend

I remember analyzing MGMT lyrics. We disagreed about the lyrics. MGMT said the song was about one of the things we said though. We were both close, but the attitude towards it was closer to what one of us was saying. There was a right answer, and one of us was wrong.

But, people have this incredible ability to read what they want. I was even doing it with that song; what I said it was is closer to something I'd say, and the same for you. If there is or isn't a right answer, we'd both pretend it said something that made sense to us, or that we liked, or whatever.

and before that with the dada poems; everyone found meaning in something random. There was nothing there, except what we projected on to it.

It seems dangerous to me, that our brains are doing this. It kinda scares me. Most the time, I don't think we are over thinking things. I think most the time, there is something deep in items, that should be thought out and will make sense. But are there times where we over scrutinize too closely, and find ideas and messages that aren't there?
