How Strange Lyrics

I've seen this song be interpreted as portraying humankind's disprespect for the supernatural, something I've always rather disagreed with. Emilie Autumn seems to be taking the metaphor of the supernatural and using it to describe the singer, whom a swain persists in trying to win the singer's affections, a pursuit that both amuses and vexes her . On the one hand, he claims to dream of her every night and to love her, yet he wants her to change in order to fit in more with what he thinks she is, or should be. The singer believes otherwise- she won't change for anyone, not even a lover. She doesn't need to please anybody but herself, and if that means she has no boyfriend, then so be it. Staying true to herself is more important than listening to what supposed loved ones say she should be.
