Lyrics
0:30I'm up at six
0:32I get a slice of bread
0:34I cut a hole in it
0:37I crack a little egg into a frying pan
0:41And I try to get my mind turned off
0:49I'm naked now
0:50Because it doesn't really matter
0:53When the shades are down
0:55I was born this way
0:57I'll die this way
0:58I don't know how
1:00I'm ever gonna tell myself the truth
1:07I live alone
1:10A house without a heart
1:12Is not a home
1:15I think I may destroy the things I own
1:19I'm going back
1:20Way back to black and red
1:25Inside my haunted head
1:31I get the prayer shawl on
1:34I wrap myself in something
1:36That is way beyond
1:38Anything my mind can get its dirty fingers on
1:43I'm going through the motions like a champ
1:50I take these aimless drives
1:53From two a.m. to four
1:54I live these secret lives identities that all die off
2:00Not one survives
2:02By morning there's nobody at the wheel
2:09I'm out in lake street now
2:12I'm coming to a red light
2:14But there's no one around
2:16The law sits on my shoulder
2:18And it weighs me down
2:21It's talking in a language long since dead
2:26Inside my haunted head
2:52I'm having too much fun
2:54My arms around the toilet
2:56Like a long lost chum
2:59I'm kneeling at the throne
3:01I'm stricken deaf and dumb
3:04I'm learning what it means to really pray
3:11Tried to get cute with pain
3:13I thought I could avoid it
3:15Thought I knew the game
3:18But just when you get the hang of
3:20It the rules all change
3:23And you're doing time for crimes that don't exist
3:29So I sit and wait
3:32'Til I can finally see the sense it makes
3:37I know this sick world's bound to be explained
3:42So I'm hanging on if only by a thread
3:47Inside my haunted head
4:04Haunted ha ha haunted head
I'm up at six I get a slice of bread I cut a hole in it I crack a little egg into a frying pan And I try to get my mind turned off I'm naked now Because it doesn't really matter When the shades are down I was born this way I'll die this way I don't know how I'm ever gonna tell myself the truth I live alone A house without a heart Is not a home I think I may destroy the things I own I'm going back Way back to black and red Inside my haunted head I get the prayer shawl on I wrap myself in something That is way beyond Anything my mind can get its dirty fingers on I'm going through the motions like a champ I take these aimless drives From two a.m. to four I live these secret lives identities that all die off Not one survives By morning there's nobody at the wheel I'm out in lake street now I'm coming to a red light But there's no one around The law sits on my shoulder And it weighs me down It's talking in a language long since dead Inside my haunted head I'm having too much fun My arms around the toilet Like a long lost chum I'm kneeling at the throne I'm stricken deaf and dumb I'm learning what it means to really pray Tried to get cute with pain I thought I could avoid it Thought I knew the game But just when you get the hang of It the rules all change And you're doing time for crimes that don't exist So I sit and wait 'Til I can finally see the sense it makes I know this sick world's bound to be explained So I'm hanging on if only by a thread Inside my haunted head Haunted ha ha haunted head
