Esaul (“A Place for My Head” demo) Songtext
von Linkin Park

Writing with a head full of buckets of red
And what I said still stuck in my head
A thoroughbred, thoroughly bled
It led to the land of the never-come-backs
Smaller than a thumbtack, and they never run from that
From planetary signs, rising over the horizon
Smaller than a fly′s head
I'm a lyrical lamb, the power of a god
In my cynical hand
With the pen, once again swimmin′
In the center of a hit or a miss
Reeling in my thoughts, gettin' lost in the mist
Realize the one that the size of the fist
And the killin' of a killer with a flick of the wrist


Yeah, I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I
Live for them
(Still, I see that it′s not meant to be for me)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head

And a second is gone
The weapon of time is stronger than a nuclear bomb
Eternity or half-life
Somethin′ that math can't write
You can′t fight nor flee
Still be around if it wasn't for me
Weigh that, verse whatever, my friends
So you can see the attraction of the payback
Don′t want me to say that?
Play back the thing now, gettin' lost in the chaos
Tossin′ it down

Singin' again to myself
Electric neck twitch
Hungry for a head full of hectic
Accept this, doing double-duty on time
Adding to the panic of my confine


Singin' again to myself
Electric neck twitch
Hungry for a head full of hectic
Accept this, doing double-duty on time
Adding to the panic of my confine

Yeah, I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I
Live for them
(Still, I see that it′s not meant to be for me)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head

Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds
Soon the Aztec moon will heat my room, heal my wounds

I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I
Live for them
(Still, I see that it′s not meant to be for me)
I wanna be in the energy
Not with the enemy
A place for my head

Burn
Burn
Burn

Singin' again to myself
Electric neck twitch
Hungry for a head full of hectic
Accept this, doing double-duty on time
Adding to the panic of my confine

Singin′ again to myself
Electric neck twitch
Hungry for a head full of hectic
Accept this, doing double-duty on time
And adding to the panic of my confine
