  • I am the one you left for dead
    (Say you wanted to)
    You are the bullet in my head
    (Ah)
    And as you stand over my grave
    (Tell me it's okay)
    Your porcelain lips upon my face (ahh)
    (Ah)

    Either I'm in heaven, or I'm in hell
    Am I losing my mind, yeah
    (Cause I can't tell)
    I've been waiting for answers for way too long
    Seems I'm always waiting around

    Spiders in my head, spiders in my mind
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind
    It all works out all right
    You know I'm gonna be all right
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind

    I think your mother wants me dead
    (Say you wanted to)
    I am a schizophrenic man
    (Ah)
    I wouldn't change you if I could
    (Say you wanted to)
    Treat me good I'll play it cool

    Spiders in my head, spiders in my mind
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind
    It all works out all right
    You know I'm gonna be all right
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind

    Spiders in my head, spiders in my mind
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind
    It all works out all right
    You know I'm gonna be all right
    You may take my eyes, but baby I'm not blind Writer/s: Daniel Andrew Tichenor, Donald Bradley Shultz, Jared Lloyd Champion, Lincoln Parish, Matthew Ray Shultz

  • Antm from Hangin AroundI used to listen to an Mp3 of this song all the time when I was in highschool. Cage the elephant was a big part of my life during that time. It all started when I heard "Ain't no rest for the wicked" on Borderlands 1 and ever since, I've been a huge fan of this band. Spiderhead being one of my favorite songs by them.
