obviously you guys didnt read J.D. Salinger's book "The Catcher In The Rye"
yes its true the song does talk about John Lenon. but this song is also a reference to the book itself.
for example "Took our innocence", in the book. the main character says he wants to be "the catcher in the rye" because he wants to catch children from falling off a cliff. this symbolizes how he wants to catch children from falling out of innocence, when they grow up.
another example "That needed comfort from somebody
And needed comfort from someone" throughout the whole book the main character is on his own and is in need to express his feelings to someone however he shields himself with a barrier of cynicism.
he sees the world as a phony place which brings me to "We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way"
unless you guys read the book you guys wont know what im talking about
