My grip on my secrets slipping while I'm speaking in tongues

Screaming at the top of my lungs in the confession booth

Take it with a pillar of salt, H.A.L.T., it’s not my fault

The devil made me do it, but I also kinda wanted to

I'm cut from a different kind of meat More than you can chew, hard to swallow me

Forget bored stiff, I got rigor mortis, call it morbid curiosity How I cannot commit to reality, when my third eye’s open and I like what I see

Baby, I may be crazy but I didn’t lose it, no I set it free

I can’t ignore what’s under dance floorboards The rhythm of my heart a dead-as-disco beat

But I still move my feet To slip out of this groove, I'm free

Now to row, row, row my boat over the falls And maybe wake up from but a dream, yeah

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

I didn’t lose it babe There wasn’t much to find

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

I'm only passing through Oh, oh, o-o-oh

If you knew what I knew, if you saw what I see You’d look through illusions, hallucinations, and lucid dream

And I know that meaning can be such a pretty thing to keep But I got facts and I'm not afraid to use ‘em Take the good with the bad, take off the back you make a new front

Some days I'm glad that I am a madman and I’d rather be that than An amicable animal, mild-mannered cannibal

But I'm more level-headed and clever than ever And I'm getting better one forever at a time

And if sick is defined by what’s different Well then pull the plug out and let me die

Vice-versa, vice versus virtue Well who I am I choose through all the things I do

And if it rhymes, it’s true, but I hate poetry

Now with my moral compass pointing south, I'm going down with no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no respect for reality

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

I didn’t lose it babe There wasn’t much to find

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

I'm only passing through

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

I didn’t lose it babe There wasn’t much to find

I'm just a psycho, babe Come and go out my mind

A tourist passing through

Well that was fun, goodbye!

My interpretation & opinions

To me 2econd 2ight 2eer is a direct continuation to Suburbia Overture, where in the previous track the story was all about how everyone masks to fit in and a world where you can't be yourself will inevitably lead to misery, in this track the main character notices how this system that focus so much on a standar of normalcy that nobody can truly achieve naturally and decides to just not follow this rules and ignore other's opinions completely

My favorite part about this track is how it subtly makes fun of the demonization of mentally ill people by having the singer describe themselves as a psycopath and someone dangerous yet they are shown to be someone who just wants to dance and have fun the same way we often see mentally ill people as villains in fiction where in real life most of them are justr trying to live their life without harming anyone

Overall, this is the least depressing song in the whole album by a long shot, it's a cute message of acceptance which completely goes against the idea instilled by it's predecesor of doing what you can to fit in even if it kills you
