If the person or persons who I have supposedly beaten want to claim so in a court of law and brings charges against me, fine. But if not, nobody else should try to cast aspersions on my character. That's all I'm saying.

I did not take your post as an accusation or anything like that at all. I just replied to what you said because I wanted everyone to know that I posted an interpretation of the song, and did not tag a statement along with it saying that I am right, that that's what the song is about and that everyone else is wrong. If this song is up for discussion, which it is through this thread, people are going to post what they think and that's fine. Going too far with it is another thing and I don't think anyone has done that thus far. So, as far as I'm concerned, it's all good.
If people can relate to the song in whatever way they connect with it, then that's alright too. I believe that that's what Amy's been saying that she wants in the first place--for people to know that they're not alone. Otherwise, this song would never have seen the light of day.
