Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head There’s something in the water I don’t like the flavour, I don’t like the taste Searching for nirvana Something that’ll take it all away from me Don’t bother me, my misery It’s holding me Won’t let me speak Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head Tryna eat me, tryna feed me lies until I’m dead (’til I’m dead) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) It’s creeping in, it’s gonna get me by the end of the night I’m sinking deeper, still I’m reaching for the end of the light Burning in the lava You can’t go and pray this type of pain away Don’t bother me, my misery It’s holding me Won’t let me speak Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head Tryna eat me, tryna feed me lies until I’m dead (’til I’m dead) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (oh, head!)I feel like I can’t breathe I feel like I can’t sleep How did I not see? I’m unwell I feel like I can’t breathe I feel like I can’t sleep How did I not see? I’m unwell Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (oh, head!) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head Tryna eat me, tryna feed me lies until I’m dead (’til I’m dead) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (oh, head!)In my head Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head (in my head) Please, forgive me, I’ve got demons in my head
My 2 Cents- Ok…. I am behind on Loki. Just got to watch episodes 3 & 4 this weekend. (Me and a couple of friends are watching it together. This song began episode 3 and I just had to look it up. The lyrics feel, much like many of my favorite songs, like someone is watching my life too closely. The best songs always feel like they rip your heart out. You can understand it far better than you really want to. What song tears you apart?
I lost a friend today. He actually passed away on the 7th… But I found out today. He was so bright and compassionate. He would at least once a month send me a digital hug. He was a veteran and a good man. I will miss him.
I normally put poetry on pictures with a copyright notice… This one hurts too much.
Lyrics – [Verse 1] Thought I’d bite my tongue Just this once, maybe twice, but the harder I bite Now it’s drawing blood There’s a trace on my lips, leaves a taste when we kiss Try to cover up All of the lies and all of the lines that I Bottle up To keep you safe and sound
[Pre-Chorus] But echoes of warnings Like whispers of morning, like It creeping through cracks in my memory It’d make me lose my mind
[Chorus] But every time I close my eyes It’s calling in like a siren Threatening to comе alive Unless I pay the pricе, yeah But if my heart is right this time And I can finally bear my secrets Maybe you won’t run and hide But love the monster inside me
[Verse 2] Maybe all the love Is a switch that we flip when we’re losing our grip And it’s close enough Taking good with the pain, go a little insane All we really want Is someone to hold until we grow old And no matter what (No matter) Can’t be scared away
[Pre-Chorus] Echoes of warnings Like whispers of morning, like It creeping through cracks in my memory It’d make me lose my mind
[Chorus] But every time I close my eyes It’s calling in like a siren Threatening to come alive Unless I pay the price, yeah But if my heart is right this time And I can finally bear my secrets Maybe you won’t run and hide But love the monster inside me [Bridge] Beauty in the chaos, all that’s left to save us Now Beauty in the chaos, all that’s left to save us Now Beauty in the chaos, all that’s left to save us Now Echoes of warnings like Beauty in the chaos, all that’s left to save us now Echoes of warnings like Beauty in the chaos, all that’s left to save us now
[Chorus] But every time I close my eyes It’s calling in like a siren Threatening to come alive Unless I pay the price, yeah But every time I close my eyes It’s calling in like a siren Threatening to come alive Unless I pay the price, yeah But if my heart is right this time And I can finally bear my secrets Maybe you won’t run and hide But love the monster inside me
My 2 Cents – I have always fought the stigma of my mental health. I am a survivor. That being said, sometimes the labels are easier to fight than others. Now I am trying to help my teenager fight them. She wants to write horror. She is into the creepy and dark. When she told her therapist that (New therapist) the therapist tried to claim that she was homicidal. She doesn’t want to hurt anyone. She is a gentle soul with a rich imagination. She wants to write dark stories so she is apparently Homicidal. I raised all kinds of hell with the office. The supervisor talked to my daughter and agreed that the therapist was way off base. So I am left with a wonderful beginning writer who is struggling because of labels. Seems to me that the world wants to label madness too easily and the monsters that truly exist are allowed too much leeway. so today at least I think I love the monster inside me and will revel in the beauty in chaos.
