I've forgotten what it feels like to feel normal
To be normal
I've forgptten what food tastes like
The way it tastes right
The taste buds taste right
I wake up in so much spit and sweat, it is not normal
What is normal?

I go to bed
When I wake up
After cleaning all
All the spit and sweat

I'm sha sha shakin, sha shakin'
I'm sha sha shakin, I'm shakin' now

I tossed and turned all night
'cause I was looking for an ending
This was so because I watched all day
The neverending story with atrayu

The next day came but not a beam of light
Because the blinds were shut
Sha sha sha shut so tight

I fell out of bed laced with spit and sweat
It made me very cold
It made me
Sha sha shakin', sha shakin'
I'm sah sha shakin', I'm shakin' now

I'm supposed to feel better
And I'm supposed to stop shakin'
I'm sha sha shakin', sha shakin'
I'm sha sha shakin', I'm shakin' now

    Memory:This song reminds me of graduating from high school- The nerves, frustrations, the excitement, looking forward to the drama's ending.
    I like the lyrics:
    I've forgotten what it feels like to feel normal
    To be normal

    General Comment:altho...when they played it on the OC it was right before Oliver get's busted for buying drugs...so maybe it is. maybe it was supposed to be ironic.

    General Comment:i kind of thought it was about just staying up at night being so in love with someone who doesn't want u back. u lose feeling. u go numb longing for them. u can't sleep, u can't eat, food loses it's taste because your mind is elsewhere.

    General Comment:for me, this is about not knowing who you are, or who people want you to be. not remembering a time when you were normal or even what normal is anymore. and because you are so disoriented with identity issues you don't taste or feel or care about that stuff.

    i relate greatly to this song.
    no drugs

    General Comment:i dont really take this song to be about addiction. though it has all the references to meth whetever ECT. when i first heard it i was reminded of myself not knowing really what is going on im my life or what to do about anything....


    not knowing what is normal--from not being myself for so long
    not sleeping well--from thinking about what to do about problems (an ending) and not sleeping

    and not really careing what food tastes like because it doesnt really matter anymore...

    sure this could be about drugs--or it could be anything
