Bizarre Words
Hocico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You, you don't know
Who are you crying all these tears for?
Ask while you fall
Is this acting or entertainment?
False sympathy
Insecure movements called depression
False honesty
So your past is what attacks you
It hunts you down
What you have is just the false truth
From a pervert clown
Can't stop blaming, no one listens
Ears made to ignore
So your instinct's getting impatient
Darkness to adore
Bizarre words for deviation
Why, why resist?
Show me who you are
Wicked passions are
Bizarre words for deviation
[2x]
Bizarre language touching your ears
You cannot speak
There's no past goodness can fix
Mouths getting sick
You've lost yourself in your own thoughts
Feet can't touch the ground
Come and take what you're losing
Do it while you can
Bizarre words for deviation
Why, why resist?
Show me who you are
Wicked passions are
Bizarre words for deviation

The lyrics to Hocico's song Bizarre Words are a contemplation on the personal struggles that come with depression and anxiety. The first verse addresses the idea that people suffering from these illnesses often don't know who to turn to or why they feel like they do. The second verse delves deeper into the psychological roots of depression and anxiety, pointing out that often it is past trauma that haunts those affected by it. However, the chorus offers a glimmer of hope in the suggestion that by embracing our "wicked passions" and being honest about our struggles, we can work towards healing.
The overall message of the song is one of acceptance and a call to be unashamed of our struggles. The lyrics suggest that society often responds to depression and anxiety with "false sympathy" and "false honesty," but that what we need is genuine understanding and support. By embracing our "bizarre words" and quirks, we can move towards healing and find a sense of identity and wholeness.
