Normal
Embracing Uniqueness: Suicidal Ninja Monkeys' Anthem to Individuality
Lyrics
I toss and turn in my bed
I experience restlessness and anxiety while lying in bed.
The clouds are back inside my head
I feel mentally clouded or troubled.
Can't see clear, but I know they're there
My vision is unclear, but I am aware of the challenges or issues.
The clouds are back inside my head
A metaphorical representation of mental clouds returning.
But I'm not gonna let them wear me down
I am determined not to be overwhelmed or defeated by challenges.
No I'm not gonna let them break me down
I am resolute in facing difficulties and not letting them affect me.
I just wish I was normal like you
Expressing a desire for a more conventional and stable life.
Wish that I could sleep a whole night through
Wishing for the ability to sleep without interruptions.
I wish I was a boring, rich, son of a bitch without a care
Desiring a life devoid of challenges, with financial comfort.
I guess I broke my window shades
Referring to a broken physical barrier that allowed sunlight in.
A ray of sun hits my face
Symbolizing a positive influence (sunlight) entering the situation.
I hear the kids play, it's just another day
Observing the normalcy of children playing, emphasizing routine.
A ray of sun hits my face
Continuation of the positive impact of sunlight.
So I try to smile, just for a while
Attempting to put on a happy face despite internal struggles.
And I act like everything's all right
Pretending that everything is fine to the outside world.
I just wish I was normal like you
Reiterating the desire for a more conventional and ordinary life.
Wish that I could sleep a whole night through
Expressing the wish for uninterrupted, peaceful sleep.
I wish I was a boring, rich, son of a bitch without a care
Desiring a life without worries, possibly with financial stability.
But then the clouds all disappear
Noticing the disappearance of mental clouds or troubles.
I just wake up and they're not there
A realization that the challenges are temporary and not permanent.
I realize this is how I am
Acceptance of one's true self and acknowledgment of personal traits.
And that's OK, that's all right
Expressing self-acceptance and contentment with who they are.
I'm OK, I'm gonna be all right
A positive affirmation of personal well-being and future outlook.
No, I don't wanna be normal like you
Rejecting the idea of conformity and expressing individuality.
I don't wanna sleep my whole life through
Refusing to live a passive or unfulfilling life.
I don't wanna be a boring, rich, son of a bitch Without a care in this world
Rejecting the desire for a life without responsibilities or challenges.
