Frightened Rabbit - The Modern Leper


Artist: Frightened Rabbit
Song: The Modern Leper
Album: Midnight Organ Fight
Year: 2008

"A cripple walks amongst you all you tired human beings, he's got all the things a cripple has not working arms and legs and vital parts fall from his system and dissolve in Scottish rain, vitally he doesn't miss them, he's too fucked up to care..."


*A COMMENT: This album could be considered a concept album as it describes the whole life of this specific destructive relationship, focusing on the despair and hopelessmess, even self-pity and even on the good moments lived. The lyrics are rather honest and pretty awesome, well-thought lyrics, using a good amount of imagery and euphemisms... The lyrics could mean a lot of things but the greatness of them lies in the listener getting the point anyway...
