Migraine
Urban Clearway Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keep my head together make me head strong
Keep my head together keep me headstrong
Keep my thoughts short 'cause they're so long
Keep the pain smothered like a smoke bong
Keep my mind together cos it's leaking
Turn off the voices that are speaking
Noise inside my head is getting louder
(Chorus:)
My eyes won't focus
Except on the pain
My mind won't focus
Except on my brain (x2)
Migraine
Keep my head together make me head strong
Keep my head together keep me headstrong
Keep my thoughts short cos they're so long
Keep the pain smothered like a smoke bong
Keep my mind together cos it's leaking
Turn off the voices that are speaking
Noise inside my head is getting louder
It's getting louder - louder
(Chorus:)
My eyes won't focus
Except on the pain
My mind won't focus
Except on my brain (x2))
Migraine
The song Migraine by Urban Clearway is a powerful and emotive depiction of the experience of a migraine attack. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the physical and mental struggles that come with this debilitating condition. The repetition of the lines "Keep my head together make me head strong, keep my head together keep me headstrong" suggests a desperate plea for control and resilience in the face of overwhelming pain. The metaphor of "smothering" the pain like a smoke bong is a powerful one, emphasizing the suffocating and overwhelming nature of the discomfort. The line "turn off the voices that are speaking" adds another layer to the experience, referencing the cognitive distortions and hallucinations that some people experience during a migraine attack. The sensory overload is almost unbearable, culminating in the grinding of pain relief medication into a powder.
The chorus of the song, "My eyes won't focus except on the pain, my mind won't focus except on my brain" captures the all-encompassing nature of the migraine experience. It's an experience that takes over every aspect of a person's body and mind, leaving them feeling helpless and consumed by the discomfort. The use of the word "migraine" as a repeating refrain only further enforces the centrality of this condition to the song's theme.

so i guess this is the alarm system that was in use on the video "Abandoned Food Factory - ALARM TRIGGERED" from Sub Exploration. y'all should sponsor these exploration channels for each abandoned building they go thru, would be good marketing.
