Something Inside My Head Songtext
von Akala

They wonder why the caged bird sings
But even worse a pain is the bird with lead wings
It′s like I'm in my hometown but can′t speak the language
Crowded to the point of suffocation still feel stranded

What bandage could heal scars invisible
Existing is easy as living it is difficult
Like a ritual I get close to believing
Then I put a fortress up to close in my feelings
Dreaming so close to achieving
I throw it all away cos I'm scared to receive it

Living every day in my shadow
I find my resolve when cold night swallows that shadow
I travel through the landscape searching for why
But the question follows everywhere I go like the sky


You don't understand my soul well neither do I
It′s just something inside my head
Won′t set me free
Won't let me be
It′s just something inside my head
Coming in between
You and me
It's just something inside my head

I wasn′t born this way my condition is learned
Once bitten twice shy I don't wanna be burned
When you travel a passage that leaves your soul ravaged
Your mind waxes placid to limit the damage
Then your reaction is passive whether you like it or not
You cannot win whether you fight it or not
Your brain swallows the pain and buries it instead
Now it′s...

Something inside my head
Won't set me free
Won't let me be
It′s just something inside my head
Coming in between
You and me
It′s just something inside my head

It's just something that guides my
Something that drives my
Something inside my head


I offend myself
Then avenge myself
And pretend it helps
To defend myself
I believe myself

Then deceive myself
To retrieve myself
I don′t need my help
Whether to brave myself
Or slave myself
It's strange every day I′m not the same myself

I love myself then I hate myself it's...

Something inside my head
Won′t set me free
Won't let me be
It's just something inside my head
Coming in between
You and me
It′s just something inside my head
