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

I-I-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, cloud, 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 examiner
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

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
I am not as fine as I seem, pardon
Me for yelling, I'm 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
Holds back contents
That make Pandora's box contents
Look non-violent

Behind my eyelids are islands of violence
My mind shipwrecked
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 they 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

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, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
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 undertone

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 undertone

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

We've made it this far
We've made it this
