...Trapper laments about an unrequited love. Trying to reflect the pain of the subject matter, Trapper deliberately makes the track painful to listen to.

They're both full of surprise metaphorical connections ("her eyes turn to polished coal") and abrupt right-angle turns. His literary talent is not unrelated to her curse: the startling associative imagery that gives his writing its power is like a domesticated version of the madness that nearly carried away his daughter's life...

Presumably, the Kerry version flourished in the conservative blogosphere, and the Bush version gained traction in the liberal blogosphere. Each side has its own echo chamber...
