Song Meaning of “Friend of a Fiend” by Jitter
“Friend of a Fiend” is an emotional reflection on the loneliness, alienation, and confusion that can come from feeling misunderstood and unable to connect to those around you. Through the metaphor of a “friend of a fiend,” Jitter compares the struggles of finding a place in the world to the challenges of befriending someone who may be marked as ‘evil’ or ‘wrong’ by society. The speaker yearns to unleash the truth about their situation, but knows that doing so would only bring more misunderstanding and judgment. The song ultimately conveys a sense of dread and despair as the speaker realizes that they will always be alone and alienated. By never fully accepting their place as a “friend of a fiend”, the speaker is able to retain a glimmer of hope that they will eventually find a connection and acceptance.
