Strange
J.P. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There I go again the socially awkward butterfly
Said it once Said it twice
Say it a hundred times
Anxiety running high
Sometimes wonder why
My lips are stapled shut
Whenever she walks by
There I go again
Over thinking sort of weird
My mind is such a mess
I'm just trying to make it clear
Rejection always feared
Man the stress is up to here
And can never figure out
If it's no tatties or no beard

There was a Boy
Very Strange Enchanted Boy
There was a Boy
Very Strange Very Strange

Not really into change
Stuck on keeping things the same
Takes a special key
To get inside my brain
Maximum Security
Under lock and chain
And way in the back
Is where I stock the pain
There I go again
Probably saying too much
Ya Gotta get knocked down once
Just to move up?
Lose first to Win
Yup i know it sucks
But if you're stuck in the same rut
I do wish you luck

There was a Boy
Very Strange Enchanted Boy
There was a Boy




Very Strange Very Strange
Enchanted Boy
