Autobiography

Your head's so black and blue
From your thoughts,
They've got nothing on you

Your remains act so new
Ask your mom
They've got nothing on you

Is there a reason behind this spider web?
Where the man is caught, well more or less.
A difference not seen by many
Other than yourself

It's haunting your dreams
And brightening your nightmares
Nowhere to run away
No one left to care

The numbers, 1 or 2
Not a lot
They've got nothing on you

Think, my dear sir, before you speak
Look, my dear sir, before you leap

They've got nothing on you.

Not yet, anyway.

Welcome to Another Friday
Where you look forward to another Friday
Waiting for that layoff
So you have all day to think

About you-know-who
Who's holding you back
Yet pushing you through another day
Because what choice do you have?

I like the idea that your head could be black and blue from abusive, or hard/hurtful thoughts. annnd I like rhythm in this. I find the idea that someone who is holding you back is also the person that can motivate you to do what you do.
