If You Had A Head

(album: Monster Philosophy - 2008)

Use your life or someone else will
If you don't care you can't see it until
You see the point and maybe the truth
For the alone and the misunderstood
Don't you lose it all in the gap
That separates the awake from the sad
The bad love from the romantic ideas
From what matters and what you really fear

She said:
If you had a head
And you used your mind
You could have me anytime
If you had a brain
As big as your pain
You could have me back again
If you had your ears
Attached to your heart
You could have me anyhow
If you had a head
And you had an open mind
You could have me anytime

You've got skills you can make it look good
And unbroken from the root to the fruit
Afraid to speak, if you're breaking the spell
The dream fades if it's going too well
And it dries up, and you live to tell...

Or you could walk the streets
In the cold cold wind
Wearing a jacket
Mosquito net thin
Or you could open up
Out of the blue
Let someone new know
Everything about you
