Migraine

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.

Am I the only one I know

Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat?

Shadows will scream that I'm alone, oh, oh

I-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, 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

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 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

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

(Ah, yeah) yeah, yeah, yeah

(Oh, oh) 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, oh

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

Made it this far

Made it this f-
