A Place For My Head

by Dave "Phoenix" Farrell / Mark Wakfield

[Mike]
I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night,
Shining with the light from the sun,
And the sun doesn't give light to the moon, assuming
The moon is gonna owe it one...
And makes me think of how you act to me, you do,
Favors that rapidly,
Just turn around and start asking me about
Things you want back from me.
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like I owe you this,
Find another place to feed your greed,
While I find a place to rest.

[Chorus]
[Chester (Mike)]
I wanna be in another place,
I hate when you say you don't understand,
(You'll see it's something to be)
I wanna be in the energy,
Right with the enemy, a place for my head.

[Mike]
Maybe someday I'll be just like you and,
Step on people like you do,
Run away, all the people I thought I knew,
I remember back then who you were,
You used to be calm, used to be strong, used to be generous,
You should've known, that you wear out your welcome and now you see,
How quiet it is all alone,

I'm so sick of the tension,
Sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like i owe you this,
Find another place to feed your greed,
While i find a place to rest. (2x)

[Chorus]

[Chester]
You, try to take the best of me, go away (3x)
You, try to take the best of me, go away!

You, try to take the best of me, go away!(4x)

[Chorus]

[Chester]
Shut...up...why!?!

[Mike] [Chester singing "Shut...up...why!?!" in background]
I am so sick of the tension,
Sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like i owe you this,
Find another place to feed your greed,
While i find a place to rest,
I'm so sick of the tension,
Sick of the hunger,
Sick of you acting like i owe you this,
[Chester singing "Take!, Away! From me!" in background]
Find another place to feed your greed,
While I find,
A place to rest.
