FREAKS
Richard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something lost and never seen
Every time I start to believe
Something's raped and taken from me from me
Life's gotta always be messing with me (You wanna see the light)
Can't they chill and let me be free (So do I)
Can't I take away all this pain (You wanna see the light)
I try to every night, all in vain, in vain
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
Feeling like a freak on a leash (You wanna see the light)
Feeling like I have no release (So do I)
How many times have I felt diseased (You wanna see the light)
Nothing in my life is free, is free
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
Boom na da noom na na nema
Da boom na da noom na namena
Da boom na ba noom na namena
Da boom na da noom na namena
Da boom na ba noom na namena
Da boom na da noom na namena
Da boom na ba noom na namena
Da boom na da noom na namena
Da boom na ba noom na namena
Da boom na da noom na namena
Da boom na ba noom na namena
Da boom na da noom na namena
Go!
So fight! Something on the dum na ema
Fight, sometimes they fight
So! Something on the, dum na ema
Fight, somethings they fight
Fight! Something on the, dum na ema
No, somethings they fight
Fight! Something on the, dum na ema
Buy, somethings they fight
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
Part of me
Part of me
Part of me
The lyrics to "Freak on a Leash" by Richard Cheese describe a feeling of being violated and losing a sense of self. The use of the phrase "something takes a part of me" suggests that the loss is ongoing and repeated, creating a sense of being drained of one's essence. The line "life's gotta always be messing with me" conveys a sense of being constantly thwarted, while "can't they chill and let me be free" suggests a desire to be left alone. The repeated phrases "you wanna see the light" and "so do I" suggest a desire for clarity and meaning, while the repeated lines "sometimes I cannot take this place / sometimes it's my life I can't taste / sometimes I cannot feel my face" convey a sense of disconnection from reality. The song ends with a series of repeated phrases that suggest a fight or struggle, accompanied by a repeated refrain of "something takes a part of me."
