Robert often uses literature and film as a BASIS for a song. Would you say that the song "Burn" is about a guy who dies, but comes back to life as a character called "The Crow" to avenge his death? No, certainly not. The movie is just an inspiration for the song. Charlotte Sometimes is the same way.
Yes, this song is inspired by the book Charlotte Sometimes by Penelope Farmer. But there's MUCH MORE going on in the lyrics than just a re-hashed synopsis of the book -- which I too have read.
It is one thing to disagree with someone's interpretation, but it's another to name-call. Especially when you haven't even heard the other person's side of the story.
And to answer your question: No, I am not a complete fuckwit. Maybe a half fuckwit, but certainly not a complete one.
Hetfield, no need to be rude.
