Be My Head
Seeking Wholeness: Embracing Imperfections in The Flaming Lips' 'Be My Head'
Lyrics
You can be my head
You can be the central or guiding force in my life
Oh, I really need one
I truly need someone to fulfill that role
'Cause it's used all its better days
Because the current state of my life or mind has seen better days
You can be my head
You have the opportunity to be the central figure in my thoughts
'Cause I've ruined this one
As I have damaged or negatively influenced my current state of mind
Blasting holes where it used to be
By creating voids or gaps where positivity used to exist
And if it's not a big thing
If it's not too much trouble
You could swap or lend me
You have the option to exchange or lend me your perspective
You should stop and ask me
It would be advisable for you to pause and inquire about my well-being
Be my head, and I'll be yours
If you become the central figure in my thoughts, I will reciprocate
Be my head, and I'll be yours
This reciprocal relationship is emphasized
You can be my head
You have the potential to be the guiding force in my life
Oh, they've eaten this one
Others have negatively impacted my current state of mind
Putting swirls in this giant hole
Introducing chaos or confusion into my thoughts
You can be my head
You can take on the role of being the central figure in my mind
'Cause I can't afford to buy one
As I am unable to improve my mental state independently
Seeking stars in its other side
Searching for positivity or inspiration on the other side of my thoughts
And if it's not a big thing
If it's not too much trouble
You could swap or lend me
You have the option to exchange or lend me your perspective
You should stop and ask me
It would be advisable for you to pause and inquire about my well-being
Be my head, and I'll be yours
If you become the central figure in my thoughts, I will reciprocate
Be my head, and I'll be yours
This reciprocal relationship is emphasized
Won't you be my head, and I'll be yours
Invitation extended to be the guiding force in my life
Be my head and I'll be yours
If you become the central figure in my thoughts, I will reciprocate
Be my head and I'll be yours
This reciprocal relationship is emphasized
Be my head and I'll be yours
Continued emphasis on the reciprocal nature of the relationship
