The Core, by Eric Clapton
The Core, by Eric Clapton
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
'Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all [While my mother "fawned" over me and was overprotective, trying her best to keep me sheltered, my father paid little attention to me. He was not an emotive man].
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
'Til you're so ****ing crazy you can't follow their rules
[It hurt me that my parents argued so much, my sisters teased me a lot (I was the youngest), my brothers were in the navy. I was a smart kid (graduated h.s. #6 of 300, got several awards), I was a "Young Sheldon", though paradoxixcally I was naive (it was that sheltering from my mother). I didn't know what to feel or do, be, do be, do (apologies to Ol' Blue Eyes
; I still got **** on at my jobs even as an adult because of the mixed signals I'd send)].
When they've tortured and scared you for 20 odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function, you're so full of fear
[I was confused, didn't really know what I wanted to do or be .. no I'm not going to again ... I was adrift school-wise and career-wise for a few years].
Keep you doped with religion, and sex, and T.V.
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
[Raised Catholic, scared ****less by the nuns and priests, ran to confession every time I touched myself; I swear the priests knew me by my voice in the confessional; obsessed with the fear of sex and women (hmm, I wonder why!?
) I didn't get laid until I met my now-husband at 38 years old (finally breaking the chains of guilt). Yet I thought I had it all "together"].
Btw, the (approx.) 10 seconds at 1:36 - 1:46 has a different sound on the guitar because the recording is a splice of two takes. I have no idea why, what I read didn't say (or I just don't remember). JL was kind of weird that was. I Want You (She's So Heavy) ends aburptly and jarringly because the band was arguing how to end it. So JL grabbed a scissors and just snipped the tape and said something like "there's the ending".
