Bigger

I don’t know much about artist/musician Amanda Palmer, but a song she wrote a year or two ago really resonated with me.

Here are the lyrics to the chorus:

I am bigger on the inside

But you have to come inside to see me

Otherwise you’re only hating

Other people’s low-res copies *

I understand she wrote the song whilst dealing with a boatload of personal difficulty and facing strong but nebulous hatred from random strangers.

There are lots of things Ms. Palmer and I would agree about, and lots of things we wouldn’t.

I’m sure I don’t understand most of the stuff she’s been through, and likewise she wouldn’t understand all my stuff.

But I can say this unequivocally: Everyone needs to understand the meaning behind this song.
