A Place For My Head
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I watch how the moon
Sits in the sky on a dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
And the sun doesn't give light to the moon, assuming
The moon is gonna owe it one
And makes me think of how you act to me, you do
Favors then rapidly
Just turn around and start asking me about
Things that you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy, a place for my head
Maybe someday I'll be just like you and
Step on people like you do
Run away, all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm
Used to be strong, used to be generous
You should've known
That you wear out your welcome and now you see
How quiet it is all alone
I'm so sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I'm so sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy, a place for my head
You, try to take the best of me, go away
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
You, try to take the best of me, go away
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
You, try to take the best of me, go away!
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy, a place for my head
Shut up
Why!?!
I am so sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I'm so sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
(Stay away from me!)
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find
A place to rest
