David Wilcox - The Inside of My Head lyrics

from What You Whispered .............................................. I got such a mess between my ears like dishes in the sink Stuff I don't believe just tumbles in until I don't have room to think These dark clouds I've stowed away just in case of a sunny day So I can stand in the pouring rain of every tear I've ever shed I've got to empty out the inside of my head This could be a room with such a view, but its covered up with junk Blocking off the place the light gets through so it keeps me in this funk All my failures are on display, the broken dreams of yesterday Stuff I should have thrown away, but I've kept it here instead I've got to empty out the inside of my head I've got to empty out the inside of my head I'd like to turn this place into my home instead of someplace that I dread Its the only place thats mine alone, and I'll live here 'til I'm dead I'll sort through what I have found, the stuff that works I'll keep around But I can't live weighted down with every cruel word they said I've got to empty out the inside of my head I've got to empty out the inside of my head I've got to empty out the inside of my head etc ..............................................
