D - I'm not going to add to your distress by being too critical. Up until middle age I was a pain in the arse. I used and misused people, especially women and was indifferent in the extreme. Labels is for baggage! The criteria for dignosis has changed in recent years. Fragile types like me start reading Freud whilst we are still in short trousers. Please do your research.

Stick the album on when im feeling empty and it sort of makes me feel like yeah, atleast im not the only one who feels this $#%^

I see narcissism in this song. Having to be mirrored as exceptional (chased after, bathed in wine), self-awareness (knowing that's not how it should be), what it would be like to be like the other person (nothing to get around).

Moby - Signs of Love (Lyrics)


If I was beautiful
If I had the time
You would flock to me
And bathe me in the wine
I know that's not the way
I know that's not how things are to be

If I was like you
With nothing to get around
Then everything would be beautiful
As far as I could see
You'd be sitting here with me
'Til love's end
I never seen you looking so bad my funky one / You tell me that your superfine mind has come undone (Steely Dan, Any Major Dude)

I know feel about the band members, but their songs is pure narcissism.

I would add other new punks to the list. Franz Ferdinand.

Don't let the fact it's technically a rap song put you off this 10 minute masterpiece, and This Captures the narcisisst condition at its absolute Rock bottom, IMO
