Story Behind The Song
Sometimes you really feel all alone and after a break up or the end of something special you begin to question yourself and what it all meant. For me, I've always felt like an outsider and this is an outsider's theme song. I've always been the outcast or the person not included or included just until the crowd gets bored with me. Sometimes you have to embrace who you are even if the road you're going down is the lonely one. Run away from the normal people and just be you.

There's no way around society and it gets pretty lonely but know that just because you're a freak doesn't mean you're alone. I think of the times I wanted to die or to just be invisible. But I know there are others out there who just want to belong. You belong to this song.

Lyrics
I was strange and I was weird just long enough to keep you near
And now you're gone and I don't know
Where I went wrong, just being who I am
Cause I'm a freak
And I'm all alone
And I don't care
Anymore
And I was real and I could fly just long enough to dance within your lies
And now I'm out, breathing shallow
I'm burning down just waiting for you
Cause I'm a freak
And I'm all alone
And I don't care
Anymore
So go ahead
Just close that door
But I'll survive cause it's all I know
Every time you see someone who is strange you light the flame
And every time you see someone who is weird you call them names
Let's run away from the normal people
I wanna run away from the normal people
Let's run away from the normal people
Let's run away from the normal people
I wanna run away from the normal...
I was strange and I was weird just long enough
