Cackling Chickens (Cover of my own song)

[Verse 1] I’m up in my room with the blinds pulled tight Head full of noise and a broken night They start up talking when I try to sleep Same damn racket, same damn heat Got a storm in my skull, got a buzz in my bones Like a crowd in the walls where I’m all alone They laugh, they jab, they never quit I grip my jaw just to deal with it [Pre-Chorus] Tell me why won’t it stop? Tell me why won’t it stop? I’m at the edge, I’m losing my grip One more word and I might just flip [Chorus] Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) Cackling chickens in my head Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) You’re driving nails through my head God, this is so fucked up God, this is so fucked up I need one second of peace One second of peace [Verse 2] They call my name when nobody’s there Spit little lies like they even care Say I’m a joke, say I’m already gone Say keep it moving, but they stay on I pace that floor till my knees go weak Hands on my face, but I still can’t breathe I need a lock on the dark inside Need a way to make it quiet tonight [Pre-Chorus] Tell me why won’t it stop? Tell me why won’t it stop? I’m at the edge, I’m losing my grip One more word and I might just flip [Chorus] Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) Cackling chickens in my head Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) You’re driving nails through my head God, this is so fucked up God, this is so fucked up I need one second of peace One second of peace [Bridge] If I scream into the sink If I bite down and sink Will the sound break free Or keep breaking me? I’m not crazy, I’m just hurt Trying to outrun this cursed little curse If you hear me fall apart Stay right there in the dark [Final Chorus] Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) Cackling chickens in my head Shut the fuck up! (shut the fuck up!) You’re driving nails through my head God, this is so fucked up God, this is so fucked up I need one second of peace One second of peace
