When I get like this, I give myself the creeps Like a new-born cub with little shaky feet Stumbling around, trying to find some ground What a joke, always thrashing around Till I figure it out, and then I choke I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) In my head, in my head In my head, in my head I was so upset I saw them selling me out Right there on Los Feliz Boulevard They were selling me cheap out there on the street Poster-sized, large as life There were tears in my eyes and so I drove on by I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) I gotta bend or we will fall My reality’s a metaphor Success is big and failure small And I’m one inch shy of feeling tall So I drove on home, my tail between my legs, hmm I'm deadbeat tired and a bit of a mess, hmm Feeling all refreshed and brimming with hope All my intentions are good and then I choke I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) I cannot let my feelings to keep on hijacking my brain (They’ve got a gun against my head) I'm gonna find my way around this wall I cannot change (They’ve got a gun against my head) In my head, in my head In my head, in my head I give myself the creeps I give myself the creeps
