What is your favorite M J metaphor and why?

[Wren13]

I love M J’s music because it's rich with emotional, visual, and moral metaphors – my favorite has to be – HUMAN NATURE.

If this town is just an apple - Then let me take a bite.

Because its about wanting and not taking.

What is your favorite and why?

In the Closet entire lyrics

You cannot cleave it or put it in the furnace
You cannot wet it, you cannot burn it

 

[jasmine.uddin]

Who is it:

'I gave her everything
Inside one heart could find,
I gave her passion,
My very soul'

Perfectly encapsulates the idea of giving ones all in a relationship.

'I am the damned,
I am the dead,
I am the agony inside the dying head'

Convey's the idea of the tormented grief at the ending of a relationship.

I love the chorus too, but no metaphors there. I think he captures the anguish of being betrayed so well in this song.
