Migraine

Am I the only one I know
Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?
Shadows will scream that I'm alone.

[Verse 1:]
I've got a migraine,
And my pain will range from up, down, and sideways,
Thank God it's Friday, ‘cause Fridays will always be better than Sundays,
‘Cause Sundays are my suicide days.
I don't know why they always seem so dismal,
Thunderstorms, clouds, snow, and a slight drizzle,
Whether it's the weather or the letters by my bed,
Sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head.
Let it be said what the headache represents,
It's me defending in suspense,
It's me suspended in a defenseless test
Being tested by a ruthless examinant,
That's represented best by my depressing thoughts,
I do not have writer's block, my writer just hates the clock,
It will not let me sleep, I guess I'll sleep when I'm dead,
And sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head.

[Chorus:]
Am I the only one I know
Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?
Shadows will scream that I'm alone,
But I know we've made it this far, kid.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Verse 2:]
I am not as fine as I seem,
Pardon, me for yelling and telling you green gardens
Are not what's growing in my psyche, it's a different me,
A difficult beast feasting on burnt down trees.
Freeze frame, please, let me paint a mental picture portrait,
Something you won't forget, it's all about my forehead
And how it is a door that hold's back contents,
That makes Pandora's box contents look non-violent.
Behind my eyelids are islands of violence,
My mind ship-wrecked, this is the only land my mind could find,
I did not know it was such a violent island
Full of tidal waves, suicidal crazed lions,
They're trying to eat me, blood running down their chin,
And I know that I can fight, or I can let the lion win,
I begin to assemble what weapons I can find,
‘Cause sometimes to stay alive you gotta kill your mind.

[Chorus:]
Am I the only one I know
Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?
Shadows will scream that I'm alone,
But I know we've made it this far, kid.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Bridge – x2:]
And I will say that we should take a day to break away
From all the pain our brain has made, the game is not played alone,
And I will say that we should take a moment and hold it,
And keep it frozen, and know that life has a hopeful

[Chorus:]
Am I the only one I know
Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?
Shadows will scream that I'm alone,
But I know we've made it this far, kid.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Made it this far,
Made it this...
