Psycho
SADS Lyrics

The lyrics to SADS's song "PSYCHO" convey a sense of detachment from society and a lack of freedom, as well as an underlying madness that may not be immediately apparent. The song opens with the line "spectators who love decadence," which appears to describe a group of people who are somewhat outside of the mainstream and take pleasure in things that might be considered 'immoral' or 'taboo'. These people are described as being 'on the inside', which could suggest that they are aware of things that others aren't privy to.

The second line, "with pupils wide open inside life," also suggests a sense of being 'in the know', and the following lines mention crying and occasionally being carefree. There is a suggestion of a darker side to this carefree behavior, however, when the song states, "if you cut off your hand without causing harm, the true nature of the psycho neurosis child will come out." This line implies that there is something sinister beneath the surface of this group's behavior, and they might not be as harmless as they seem.

The chorus, which repeats the phrase "raving psycho," seems to drive home the idea that this group is unstable and unreliable, and the second half of the song emphasizes the idea that this behavior is cyclical and inevitable. Overall, "PSYCHO" seems to be an exploration of the darker side of human behavior and the consequences that can arise from indulging in taboo or decadent behavior.
