Freaks
Machines Are People Too Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We are the freaks
no hiding from us now
Im getting sick of falling and falling and falling
into the crowd
so tell the kids who been hiding for a while
to get out and get up
cause it's time and it's time and
it's time for you to wake up
We are the freaks
no hiding from us now
Im getting sick of falling and falling and falling
into the crowd
so tell the kids who been hiding for a while
to get out and get up
cause it's time and it's time and
it's time for you to wake up
someone gives
and someone takes
I think we had a good time
but it might be just too late to rewind
You're freaking me out
out the?? clouds
blown in from the East
breath in every??? with me
its time to step out
and run through the sky
im standing behind
you me and our bodies
We are the freaks
no hiding from us now
Im getting sick of falling and falling and falling
into the crowd
so tell the kids who been hiding for a while
to get out and get up




cause it's time and it's time and
it's time for you to wake up
