The North Country - Freaks Lyrics

You know I'm not a simple man
I see the things that people do
But I don't understand
The reasons why they say they do it
I see the world turned up side down
I see the people in it
Making moves, running all around
And never know the reasons why they do
Sing and speak
Find your inner freak
You are a human being
Forget the rules
Obedience is for the fools
You make the version of you that you always wanted to
I'm most at peace among the strange
You can be alive and never live
If you never change
Living like a cog in a machine
Living like you know that you don't know
Any time or place that you may go
When I die I want to be known
Not on how much cash I had but how much I have loved
Sing and speak
Find your inner freak
You are a human being
Forget the rules
Obedience is for the fools
You make the version of you that you always wanted to

You know I'm not a simple man
I see the things that people do
But I don't understand
The reasons why they say they do it
I see the world turned up side down
I see the people in it
Making moves, running all around
And never know the reasons why they do
Sing and speak
Find your inner freak
You are a human being
Forget the rules
Obedience is for the fools
You make the version of you that you always wanted to
I'm most at peace among the strange
You can be alive and never live
If you never change
Living like a cog in a machine
Living like you know that you don't know
Any time or place that you may go
When I die I want to be known
Not on how much cash I had but how much I have loved
Sing and speak
Find your inner freak
You are a human being
Forget the rules
Obedience is for the fools
You make the version of you that you always wanted to
