Ross O'Connor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I keep holding on
You know i'm afraid
I know that i'm strange
I can't change my ways
I'm not the same
Yes I'm different now
I know that it's wrong
I keep holding on
You know i'm afraid
I know that i'm strange
I know that it's wrong
I keep holding on
You know i'm afraid
I know that i'm strange

They acknowledge that their behavior may be considered wrong or unconventional but are unable to let go or change their ways.
The phrase "I know that it's wrong" suggests a recognition of societal norms or expectations, which the singer feels conflicted about. Despite this acknowledgement, they continue to hold on to whatever it is that makes them different or strange. The repetition emphasizes a sense of struggling with these conflicting emotions, as the singer is torn between conformity and being true to themselves.
The line "I can't change my ways, I'm not the same, Yes I'm different now, And baby that's just how it goes" portrays a resignation to their uniqueness.
