Discussion song meaning discrepancies

24 Upvotes

ok so one of my fav KMFDM songs is Brute, and i've always thought it was about being a masochist (which is why it's one of my favorites). i look up the actual meaning, expecting to find what i thought, and i just see a lot of people talking about it being about either an abusive relationship or the NIHIL cover artist. no masochism. my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined /j

srsly tho am i the only one who interprets it as being about masochism?
