Exploding Head Syndrome
The noise that explodes within my nearly dreaming head
Awoke, sweating and wheezing, rolling about the bed
Quickened heart palpitations, feeling like i'm dead
Wouldn't be surprised if my ear has bled
Is it cos of those pills my mind was fed?
Vibrations like a steel cable tensed, that goes twang
When it suddenly snaps, engulfed by the clang
Like sheet-metal that a crow-bar bangs
Piercing my dreams like a vampires fangs
Or the feral youths in their pus-sy gangs!
When i'm thinking and drinking from a psychedelic tap
I get attacked by a nasty brain zap
Like some mighty metallic thunderclap
It sounds even worse than a hiphop rap
As if my dimensional tether is about to snap
And i'm awoken with an unpleasant slap.
Seems to be when i'm tripping alone
Every time my mind is truly blown
When my soul is free, allowed to roam
I'm hit by the twang, that makes me groan
As i'm yanked back to reality by Exploding Head Syndrome!
