Lyrics
I'm gonna shed my skin, deactivate my head
I intend to undergo a transformation, distancing myself from my current state and thoughts.
The skin that I regenerate looks like the skin that I just shed
The new version of myself resembles the one I discarded, indicating a repetitive or cyclical nature.
I'm better suited being typical
I am more comfortable conforming to societal norms and expectations.
I keep choking down the cockroaches until I get full
I am enduring unpleasant experiences (symbolized by cockroaches) until I am satisfied or fulfilled.
A centipede! Yeah, a centipede!
Expressing identification with a centipede, emphasizing its segmented body parts and unique characteristics.
The trunk moves independently of the head
Highlighting the disjointed nature of existence, where physical and mental aspects operate independently.
Cant keep it quiet, no cant keep it quiet
Emphasizing an inability to remain silent or restrained.
The lips keep moving when the brain is dead
Even in a state of mental numbness, communication (represented by lips moving) persists.
Don't wanna keep it down, I wanna throw it up
Rejecting the idea of suppressing emotions or experiences; expressing a desire to be expressive.
I just can't keep it to myself, I can't shut myself up
Struggling with self-control, unable to keep personal thoughts or feelings internalized.
Don't need no honesty, it isn't half as fun
Downplaying the value of honesty, suggesting that dishonesty is more enjoyable.
I just want to run my mouth
Expressing a desire to speak freely without inhibition.
It makes me feel like I am someone
Linking verbal expression to a sense of identity and self-worth.
I don't need to meet the arch bishop
Rejecting the need for formal approval or recognition from authoritative figures.
Don't need to shake hands in a roman cathedral
Dismissing the significance of traditional rituals or formalities.
Just drag the garbage up out of my guts
Metaphorically bringing up internal struggles and challenges.
For I am all things to all people
Asserting a versatile and adaptable nature, claiming to fulfill various roles for different people.
