alrighty so this is my favorite song. top is not my favorite band, one of, but this song is something I understand on so many levels. so lemme explain. Am I the only one I know Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat. Shadows will scream that I'm alone. 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. this part is honestly easy. essentially tyler is admiting to extreme depressive feelings (Am I the only one i know, ...shadows will scream that im alone) and is forced to deal with them on his own, and is not necessarily winning (Waging my wars behind my face and above my throat) The depressive feelings essentially surround you, hence (my pain will come from up down and sideways) He has gotten to the point where he honestly debats suicide with (thank god its friday cause fridays will always be better than sundays cause sunday is my suicide day) I don't know why they always seem so dismal.- doesnt know why he feels hopeless Thunderstorms, clouds, snow and a slight drizzle.-trying to guess why Whether it's the weather or the letters by my bed- suicide notes Sometimes death seems better than the migraine in my head.-wants all the shit to stop Let it be said what the headache represents - an attempt to explain the depressing thoughts It's me defending in suspense - trying and failing to ignore the thoughts It's me suspended in a defenseless test - acknowledges there is nothing he can do Being tested by a ruthless examiner - the examiner is depressive thoughts That's represented best by my depressing thoughts. I do not have writer's block my writer just hates the clock. - one of the few parts I dont have a reason for 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. Tyler is trying to remain hopeful with (but i know we've made it this far, kid.) I am not as fine as I seem. - pretty straight forward Pardon, me for yelling I'm telling you green gardens Are not what's growing in my psyche, it's a different me - admiting his thoughts are not happy or healthy A difficult beast feasting on burnt down trees. - describing his thoughts as a barren wasteland Freeze frame, please let me paint a mental picture portrait. - still attempting to explain to the listener Something you avoid yet it's all about my forehead And how it is a door that hold's back contents That makes Pandora's box contents look non-violent. - an attempt to convey how not okay he is (yes that was a mcr refrence) Behind my eyelids are islands of violence - his mind is full of horrible thoughts My mind ship-wrecked this is the only land my mind could find - almost no wear in his head is safe from these thoughts I did not know it was such a violent island - tyler didnt want these thoughts but he has no choice Full of tidal waves, suicidal crazed lions. - extremly violent and unstable thoughts They're trying to eat me, blood running down their chin - the thoughts want him to die And I know that I can fight, or I can let the lion win. - he can live or give in to the thoughts I begin to assemble what weapons I can find - sturdying himself to stand against his thoughts 'Cause sometimes to stay alive you gotta kill your mind. - I want a tattoo of this line. to stay alive, you have to fight and defeat the suicidal thoughts 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. - the game (life) is something that you dont go through alone and people can help you 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. - to quote zombieland, enjoy the little things. |
