My friends don't walk, they run
Skinny dip in rabbit holes for fun
Popping, popping balloons with guns
Getting high off helium
We paint white roses red
Each shade from a different person's head
This dream, dream is a killer
Getting drunk with a blue caterpillar
I'm peeling the skin off my face
'Cause I really hate being safe
The normals, they make me afraid
The crazies, they make me feel sane
I'm nuts, baby, I'm mad
The craziest friend that you've ever had
You think I'm psycho, you think I'm gone
Tell the psychiatrist something is wrong
Over the bend, entirely bonkers
You like me best when I'm off my rocker
Tell you a secret, I'm not alarmed
So what if I'm crazy? The best people are
All the best people are crazy
All the best people are
Where is my prescription?
Doctor, doctor, please listen
My brain is scattered
You can be Alice, I'll be the Mad Hatter
I'm peeling the skin off my face
'Cause I really hate being safe
The normals, they make me afraid
The crazies, they make me feel sane
I'm nuts, baby, I'm mad
The craziest friend that you've ever had
You think I'm psycho, you think I'm gone
Tell the psychiatrist something is wrong
Over the bend, entirely bonkers
You like me best when I'm off my rocker
Tell you a secret, I'm not alarmed
So what if I'm crazy? The best people are
You think I'm crazy, you think I'm gone
So what if I'm crazy? All the best people are
And I think you're crazy too, I know you're gone
That's probably the reason that we get along
I'm nuts, baby, I'm mad
The craziest friend that you've ever had
You think I'm psycho, you think I'm gone
Tell the psychiatrist something is wrong
Over the bend, entirely bonkers
You like me best when I'm off my rocker
Tell you a secret, I'm not alarmed
So what if I'm crazy? The best people are
All the best people are crazy
All the best people are
All the best people are crazy
All the best people are

I just want to compare this song to Taylor Swift's "Wonderland," because they both are based of Alice in Wonderland.This song is more creepy and dark than Taylor's, as are most of Melanie Martinez's songs. But I like that this takes on a dark version of Wonderland, because most people make it into a fantasy.
Basically all of these lines are references somehow to Alice in Wonderland, except the "I'm peeling the skin off my face" line confuses me because I don't remember Alice peeling her skin off. Maybe the caterpillar going through metamorphosis?

Song Meaning
This song is about Crybaby accepting her crazy self. She doesn't care that she is crazy, and implies that "all the best people are crazy".
In the music video, this is the first time where her eyes appear to be completely black, which appears when she uses her powers.

This song is about Cry Baby going crazy because of everything she's been through.

Based on the lyrics, it's pretty self-explanatory. The whole song is really about her being crazy and how that's NOT A BAD THING.
"Skinny dip in rabbit holes for fun""I'm peeling the skin off my face""Getting drunk with the blue caterpillar"
All of those lines are dangerous things to do, but she doesn't care. She outright says "'Cause I really hate being safe." Crazy people, or insane people, are nuts (or mad) and don't want to be normal.
Compared to Alice in Wonderland, she doesn't want to be the normal Alice. She wants to be the Mad Hatter, the crazy insane free-spirited guy that goes through life as an insane person.

Siberian Kiss Glassjaw its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard Corpse I Fell In Love With Gadjits, The He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could. Grand Theft Auto Insane Ian The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate Bron-Y-Aur Stomp Led Zeppelin This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.Rate These Lyrics
