Rhyme and Reason - Live at Central Park, New York, NY - September 2003

Oh well, oh well so here we stand
So we stand for nothing
My heart calls to me in my sleep
How can I turn to it?
'Cause I'm all locked up in this dark place
And I do not know
I'm good as dead
My headaches, so warped and tied up
I need to kill this pain

My head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
I don't believe it will
'Til I'm six feet under ground

Have some horns comin' in

How long I'm tied up
My mind in knots, my stomach reels
In concern for what I might do or what I've done
It's got me living in fear

I know these voices must be my soul
I've had enough
I've had enough
Of being alone
That I've got no place to go

My head won't leave my head alone
I don't believe it will
'Til I'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm six feet under ground in my grave
Lying trapped, starved and wired in my brain
Leave me here
Leave it to me to waste here

That's all that I do

So young and here I am again
Talking to myself
Oh the TV blares
Oh man, oh how I wish I didn't smoke
Or drink to reason with my head

Still sometimes this thick confusion grows
Until I cannot bear it anymore
Needle to the vein, needle to the vein
Please leave this needle in my vein, my friend

I said my head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm dead and gone
My head won't leave my head alone
And I don't believe it will
'Til I'm six feet under ground in my grave
Lying trapped, starved and wired in my grave
Reason, my reason
To get off this terror, all this terror

I'm raging, I'll come back
I could say my mind's all wiped clean
And the needle
She is my great escape

I'll feel the cold in time
My head, it leaves me behind
My body falls cold
And I see Heaven, yeah
