Metabolism
Yearning for Substance: Unveiling the Depths of 'Metabolism'
Lyrics
I wanna be outrageous
I desire to be extraordinary or unconventional
But inside, I know I'm plain
Internally, I recognize that I'm ordinary or unremarkable
So plain
Emphasizing the sense of being plain or uninteresting
Just plain
Reiterating the notion of being straightforward or unadorned
Boring
Expressing a feeling of dullness or lack of excitement
And plain
Continuing the theme of plainness or simplicity
Silently obsessed with death
Quietly preoccupied or fascinated with the concept of death
Just like anyone, I guess
Similar to anyone else, I have a contemplative interest in death
Tryin' for the perfect life
Striving for an idealized, perfect life
End up bein' in denial
Ultimately, ending up in a state of refusing to accept reality
I wanna be somebody
Expressing a desire to become someone significant
Wanna be somebody like you
Aspiring to be someone similar to the addressed "you"
Like you
Repetition for emphasis on the desire to emulate the addressed person
Like you
Continuing the emphasis on wanting to be like the addressed individual
Like you
Reiteration of the desire to be like the addressed person
Instead
Suggesting a preference for being like the addressed person instead of oneself
Of me
Contrasting the desire to be like the addressed person instead of oneself
Silently obsessed with death
Quietly preoccupied or fascinated with the concept of death (repeated)
Just like anyone, I guess
Similar to anyone else, I have a contemplative interest in death (repeated)
Tryin' for the perfect life
Striving for an idealized, perfect life (repeated)
End up being in denial
Ultimately, ending up in a state of refusing to accept reality (repeated)
