Headcase by Matthew Young Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My head's on the pike now
What a way for me to find out?
I don't know what I've done with it
Lost my mind and my love with it
This song is for right now
Something pretty for me to ride out to
And if I don't come home
Forget about me, baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
Do you know what I'm feeling?
I keep forgetting to breathe in, yeah
Headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
I'm just letting you know
[Verse 2]
I'm left in the dark now
Hard to kick what you can't fight well
It's all in the way I'm living
Comes to me, I'm prеtty unforgiving
Now I'm down on my knees, I beg for relief
But all thеy can see is I'm crazy
So more pills for me
And less of reality
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
Do you know what I'm feeling?
I keep forgetting to breathe in, oh
Headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
I'm just letting you know
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
If honesty in music won't propel me to succeed
Fuck it, i'll just be whatever kinda product that you need
Just gimme a second, I need a second to breathe
Bi-polar baby, rollercoaster building up speed
Shut the door on depression, letting manic take the seat
So come get acquainted with the other side of me
Then you can go attribute every fault to my disease
It's easy, just follow my lead
[Chorus]
I told you I'm a headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
Do you know what I'm feeling?
I keep forgetting to breathe in (Oh no, no, no, no, no)
Headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
I'm just letting you know
[Post-Chorus]
I'm just letting you know
I'm just letting you know, know, know
I'm just letting you know
Letting you know
Letting you know
I'm just letting you know
Letting you know
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
Do you know what I'm feeling?
I keep forgetting to breathe in, yeah
Headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
I'm just letting you know
My head's on the pike now
What a way for me to find out?
I don't know what I've done with it
Lost my mind and my love with it
This song is for right now
Something pretty for me to ride out to
And if I don't come home
Forget about me, baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
Do you know what I'm feeling?
I keep forgetting to breathe in, yeah
Headcase, I'm a headcase
I can be a little off base
I'm just letting you know
[Verse 2]
I'm left in the dark now
Hard to kick what you can't fight well
