Exploding Head Syndrome Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fight for a life that you took for lost
Putting out fires with the spit from my mouth
Taming dragons' what this life is about
Walk naked through the fires of hell
No fear of dying no attention to bells
Crash landing every once in a while
I get back up, I fucking finish in style
I am invincible
And you're fucking dead
Crossing lines i never thought I'd cross
Fight for a life that you took for lost
Putting out fires with the spit from my mouth
Taming dragons' what this life is about
Walk naked through the fires of hell
No fear of dying no attention to bells
I used to think you were better than me
But then I didn't
My life has been a battle
My timings been a curse
My scars they might still show
But things could be much worse
