Retarded, Disfigured Clown

I just wanted to make my first post a tribute to the inspiration for my blog title, Blue October. They're one of my top, favorite bands. Most of their songs are just depressing to some people, but I love to really listen to the lyrics and the meaning behind them. I find them to be very beautiful and I never get tired of listening to their music.


Retarded, Disfigured Clown


Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing
Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect, nor do I strive to be
I am alive in this world of face-first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard for the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race or color
A hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers and letting them fall apart
To a new rhythm, just to feel better
