Freaks
Leoniden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not worth it just a useless piece of trash
It's pathetic how I miss you
I'm not worth it just a stupid piece of shit
It's pathetic how I miss you, yeah

I do feel confused at least this proves I'm alive

I'd rather die tonight
Than admit we messed it up
We are the freaks we stay together
I'd rather die tonight
We are the freaks we stay together

Tied forever by our love and our lies
Tied forever by our love and our lies
Soft drugs to back up our alibis
Cracked lips, red eyes

I'm not worth it just a useless piece of trash
It's pathetic how I miss you
I'm not worth it just a stupid piece of shit
It's pathetic how I miss you

But I'll keep spinning
Sometimes mothered, sometimes pushed aside
But i can't deny
That I feel dead but alright

Yeah, I'm still confused at least this proves I'm alive

I'd rather die tonight
Than admit we messed it up
We are the freaks we stay together
I'd rather die tonight
We are the freaks we stay together

(Fellow sufferers, yeah)
(You freaks, you freaks)
(Uh-uh-uh)
(Yeah, yeah, you freaks, you freaks)
(You are the fellow sufferers)

I'd rather die tonight
Than admit we messed it up
We are the freaks we stay together




I'd rather die tonight
We are the freaks we stay together

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Freaks" by Leoniden Pabst convey a strong sense of self-deprecation and longing for someone who is no longer in the singer's life. They express feelings of worthlessness and how pathetic they feel for missing this person. The repetitive lines highlight the depth of their emotions, emphasizing their low self-esteem.


The line "I do feel confused at least this proves I'm alive" suggests that amidst their pain and confusion, the singer finds some solace in the fact that they are feeling something. It acknowledges that feeling lost and uncertain is a reminder of their existence and humanity.


The phrase "Tied forever by our love and our lies" implies a complicated and perhaps toxic relationship. The singer acknowledges that their connection to this person is bound by both love and deception. The mention of "soft drugs" and their destructive tendencies like "cracked lips" and "red eyes" further highlight the dysfunctional nature of their relationship.


Despite feeling worthless and pathetic, the singer admits to continuing on their own path. They state, "But I'll keep spinning, sometimes mothered, sometimes pushed aside." This could suggest that they are resilient, enduring both neglect and nurturing. They acknowledge feeling dead inside but still capable of functioning.


The repetition of the chorus, "I'd rather die tonight, than admit we messed it up. We are the freaks we stay together," underscores a sense of desperation. It implies that they would prefer to end their life rather than confront or accept the mistakes made in the relationship. The reference to themselves as "freaks" suggests that they see their relationship as unconventional or undesirable but believe in remaining together despite societal judgment.


Overall, these lyrics portray a complex mixture of self-deprecation, longing, and a tumultuous relationship. It delves into the singer's feelings of worthlessness, confusion, and their determination to cling to a flawed connection.

I discovered Leoniden on Reddit.Have since bought all their available music on itunes and made my own “Leoniden “ t shirt because their merchandise is not yet available in my country. The fact they are not “big” yet blows my mind. What an amazing talent.
