Her Life Is Already Over

Lily Allen “22″

Lily Allen is very good at writing songs that bluntly articulate deep, painful fears, particularly those rooted in extremely cynical conventional wisdom about how life works. Even when it is clear that she’s writing from a satirical perspective, it’s hard to imagine that she entirely disagrees with everything she’s singing — she might not want some things to be true or entirely believe that they are, but she’s aware of some very ugly realities. Things may not be quite as bad as they seem in her lyrics, but chances are, your insecurities are quite valid.
