Tyranny of Normality Lyrics

Cover art for Tyranny of Normality lyrics by Papa Roach

j'm not really a papa roach fan but found it ridiculous that no one could figure out what this song means. the meaning is in the title. it's about being enslaved by the popular opinion. people give in to stupid trends without questioning the reasoning behind them. we live in a culture that's bigger on conformity than it is on individualism. most people don't understand that there's nothing wrong with being "weird". this song is basically just bashing "normal" people or anyone who thinks it's good to be normal and bad to be weird. it's not just about personality etc. but it's about the complacent, unquestioning attitude of these people who can't really think critically, and how that affects/makes our society more retarded.

Yes, same here: I'm not a Papa Roach fan and I think it's ridiculous that no one understood the lyrics.

But the most ironic thing is that Papa Roach isn't that alternative themselves. They are actually pretty mainstream. It's that kind of music that sells these days. So this song is totally paradox, and THAT'S retarded!
