Bi-Polar Ex-Stress
Bi-Polar Ex-Stress
I was once a lost wee soldier
Stuck in a minefield of thought
Weight of the world on my shoulders
Not known if I would make it or not.
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
All those memories tucked away.. who knows perhaps I will one day... find that strength to fire up.. and say.... Oh I was never liked nor ever loved but I sure persevered till I was shuved.... It's over... Over in a flash..
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb..
Then you start to doubt yourself... That bitterness those pair of elves!!....
Then you lock the sights on what you had.... That angry trigger, you know is bad.... Bang!!! it's over....
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb..
Your in a place you can't deny... You never chose nor asked why? In the middle... in the drink.... That blasted puddle as you think... It's over....
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
Never one to cry so much... Never one to try to touch, ones feelings....
So you think that you are baring up... But all this time your given up...No way back.... Just spinning off the track....
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
Those angry balls that blast away... Remind you of that fateful day... Silly thinking it would ever last...thinking way too fast. For that puddle just to come back... As thinking of old times...without the flack...
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
Inside my head was a missile and
Occasionally misfire under stress.
Sights set on anyone that would rile
Found out that I had a few buttons to press.
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
My Cortex Chord loosely wired
Every other damned day.
So my stress balls could get fired
Trying to blast all my anxieties away.
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... Banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. No wonder my head was constantly numb.
You see I was once a lost wee soldier
Stuck in a minefield of thought
Weight of the world on my shoulders
Never known if I would make it or not.
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... No longer banging on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum.. ahhhh. My head is no longer numb.
Ye see Ah met a fine lassie
Her name is Lynne.. and
Ma cannon noo a depleted chassis.
I huv a far mair pivotal linchpin.
Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum... No longer banging away on my eardrum... Tweedle Dee Dee and Tweedle Dee Dum...now my two bestest chums..
Though I will say this and I will say it true... I got lucky, don't know about you??? And one day I will open up that ammunition box.
