Twisted
[Sleeper] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It made her cry, said "BOO" to her
She captured one, all hairy
Stuck needles in its eyes, he cries
He's reading a thin book
It's got no words, just pictures
She sent him away it's good to be king
Came back the same day, reconstructed him
Your insides are twisted
I said the wrong word so shoot me
As long as you don't constrict me
You all look the same, it's spooky
You say the same thing, it's ugly
You're twisted, uh-huh uh-huh
Your insides are twisted
Twist
You're twisted
You're twisted
In Sleeper's song "Twisted," the lyrics depict a sense of unease and discomfort. The opening lines suggest that the singer has encountered something unique and strange, perhaps a person or an object, that made her cry and react in fear. This mysterious entity is described as hairy, which adds to its unconventional nature. The next lines reveal a disturbing act of aggression; she intentionally hurts this creature by sticking needles in its eyes, causing it to cry. This suggests a twisted and sadistic behavior that highlights the darker and more troubling aspects of the singer's character.
The lyrics then shift focus to a male character who is depicted as reading a thin book with only pictures and no words. This lack of verbal communication may symbolize a lack of understanding or connection between individuals. The singer sends this man away, perhaps implying a desire to be alone and retain control. However, he quickly returns, supposedly reconstructed or changed in some way, suggesting that escape or detachment is not easily achieved.
The chorus emphasizes the twisted nature of these characters, alluding to their internal complexities and disturbed psychological states. The repetition of "uh-huh uh-huh" adds an eerie and unsettling tone to the song. The singer then expresses a fear of being constrained or restricted, asking not to be constricted by her own words. This implies a fear of being judged or misunderstood for something she might say.
In the final verses, the singer comments on the sameness and predictability of others, finding it both spooky and ugly. This may reflect a sense of alienation or disillusionment, hinting at a desire for individuality and uniqueness in a world that seems homogeneous.
Overall, "Twisted" explores themes of fear, aggression, loneliness, and the desire to break free from societal expectations. It delves into the complexities of human nature and the disturbing thoughts and actions that can emerge from within.

Tell me about it.
I was with someone for a minute
and she never had intention on
staying together with me.
But I am greatful for the
length of time in our
relationship she
gave me.
Eight years
and seven months.
I'm not satisfied
because I wanted a Lifer.
A forever best friend in this world.
