Oh well oh well so here we stand
|
But we stand for nothing
|
My heart calls to me in my sleep
|
Now can I turn to it
|
Cause I'm all locked up in this
|
Dark place -- and I do not know
|
I'm as good as dead
|
My head aches -- warped and tied up
|
I need to kill this pain
|
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm dead and gone
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm six feet underground
|
|
How long I'm tied up
|
My mind in knots -- My stomach reels
|
In concern for what I might do or
|
What I've done
|
It's got me living in fear
|
Well I know these voices must
|
Be my soul
|
I've had enough
|
I've had enough
|
Of being alone
|
I've got no place to go
|
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm dead and gone
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm six feet underground
|
|
"In my grave
|
Lying wired shut and quiet in my grave
|
|
Leave me here
|
Leave it to me to waste here"
|
|
So young here I am again
|
Talking to myself
|
A T.V. blares
|
Oh man oh how I wish I didn't smoke
|
Or drink to reason with my head
|
But sometimes this thick confusion
|
Grows until I cannot bear it at all
|
Needle to the vein
|
Needle to the vein
|
Take this needle from my vein my friend
|
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm dead and gone
|
My head won't leave my head alone
|
And I don't believe it will
|
'Til I'm six feet underground
|
|
"In my grave
|
Lying bored in my grave"
|
|
Leave me here
|
Leave it to me to waste here"
|
|
Reason -- my reason
|
Take my head off this terror
|
I'm fearing I'll come back
|
I'll see
|
My mind's all wiped clean
|
The Needle
|
Make my great escape
|
I'll see the cold in time
|
My head leaves me behind
|
Let me fade away
|
|
I seem caught in time
|
My head leaves me behind
|
Body falls cold
|
And I see Heaven
|
