Freaks
Embracing the Unseen: A Journey with the Freaks by Michael Sanders
Lyrics
There's freaks all around me
There are unconventional individuals around the speaker.
They're following me everywhere I go
These unconventional people seem to be following the speaker everywhere.
They're walking with me when I go to school
They accompany the speaker even on the way to school.
And they don't play by no one else's rules
These individuals do not adhere to societal norms or rules set by others.
And oh my
The speaker expresses surprise or concern.
I think they went too far this time
The unconventional individuals may have crossed a line or gone too far.
But I aint got the power
The speaker lacks the power or control to deal with the situation.
Even though I try
Despite trying, the speaker cannot change or influence the unconventional individuals.
I'm seeing all the signs now
The speaker is becoming aware of signs or signals related to the unconventional individuals.
But really I just want to sleep
The speaker desires rest or escape from the situation.
And the freaks don't have no legs
The unconventional individuals are depicted as lacking physical legs.
So I can't run them out of my head
The speaker feels unable to escape the thoughts of these individuals.
And that's why
The speaker offers a reason for feeling tired upon waking up.
I've been waking up so tired
The speaker experiences fatigue.
I'd like to slip off the deep end for awhile
Expresses a desire to escape reality and take a break.
And soak up the bottom
The speaker wants to disconnect and observe life from a different perspective.
And watch the clouds go by
The speaker wants to detach and enjoy a passive observation of life.
Maybe we weren't meant to
Suggests a doubt about the speaker's ability to achieve certain things.
Fly like all the stars do
Questioning if the speaker is meant to achieve great heights like stars.
Haven't had the nerve to kiss the sky
Expresses hesitation or fear of taking risks.
You know I really love you
Expresses love for someone.
But baby freaks weren't meant to fly
Suggests that unconventional individuals may not be suited for certain things, like flying.
Though I doubt it 'cause I've seen them do it so many times
The speaker has witnessed unconventional individuals attempting to fly, despite doubts.
There's freaks all inside me
The unconventional individuals are now within the speaker, possibly influencing thoughts or emotions.
They're crawling on the inside of my brain
They are metaphorically crawling inside the speaker's mind.
They're working on me when I go to sleep
These individuals affect the speaker even during sleep, influencing dreams.
And giving me the strangest dreams
They induce strange dreams in the speaker.
And that's why
The speaker reiterates the idea that the unconventional individuals may have gone too far.
I think they went too far this time
The speaker is unable to shake off thoughts about these individuals.
But I can't take them off of my mind
Despite efforts, the speaker cannot remove these thoughts from the mind.
Even though I try
Expresses a persistent struggle with the influence of unconventional individuals.
Maybe we weren't meant to
Repeats the doubt about achieving certain aspirations like stars.
Fly like all the stars do
Reiterates the hesitation or fear of taking daring actions.
Haven't had the nerve to kiss the sky
Expresses a lack of courage to reach great heights.
You know I really love you
Reiterates love for someone.
But baby freaks weren't meant to fly
Suggests that unconventional individuals may not be meant for certain achievements, like flying.
Though I doubt it 'cause I've seen them do it so many times
Despite doubts, the speaker has seen unconventional individuals achieve certain things multiple times.
