Shinedown - State Of My Head Lyrics






That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

It's been a long bumpy ride sittin' back in the saddle
It's time to get down, dirty up our knees in the battle
Come on, round up the boys, gonna make the walls rattle

Oh, our flag is tattered
And our bones are shattered
But it doesn't matter
‘Cause we're movin' forward

Round ‘em up, round ‘em up, let's go
Round ‘em up, let's go

Oh, my eyes are seein' red
Double vision from the blood we've shed
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

They don't know, where we've been
We got that concrete street skin
Only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

We've been shot up, beat up by the fallin' of the arrows (arrows, arrows, arrows)
Yeah, I'm full of deep cuts right down to the marrow
But there's no doubt we'll get out from the bottom of the barrel

Oh, our flag is tattered
And my bones are shattered
But it doesn't matter
‘Cause we're movin' forward

Round ‘em up, round ‘em up, let's go
Round ‘em up, let's go

Oh, my eyes are seein' red
Double vision from the blood we've shed
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

They don't know, where we've been
We got that concrete street skin
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

Can you hear me now, can you hear me now
I'm comin' back for more
Do you feel me now, do you feel me now
I'm breakin' down your door

I'm not speakin' under my breath
‘Cause the harder you push, the rougher I get
‘Cause I'm not shakin', when the earth starts quakin'
Got my own foundation with no hesitation and the

Oh, my eyes are seein' red
Double vision from the blood we've shed
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

They don't know, where we've been
We got that concrete street skin
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head
The only way I'm leavin' is dead
That's the state of my, state of my, state of my head

Shinedown State Of My Head Comments
  1. L.... C....

    I saw Shinedown in 2016 with ffdp and they were awesome

  2. A.... U....

    Like = shinedown fangirls
    Comment = shinedown fanboys

  3. M.... L....

    I forget how much I love these guys until one of their songs comes on and I feel like they're singing about my life!! 🖤

  4. T.... I....

    This song has so much hype in it, you can feel the energy it gives you soaring through your body. Makes you want to go out and WIN at something, actually accomplish something. Few songs can do that for me

  5. c.... h....

    I challenge you and if I win you have to play this song in my town population 2400.

  6. J.... C....

    Shinedown has been there when I was going through a rough time and I gotta say thanks shinedown for helping me

  7. v.... c....

    Honestly
    ever since i heard this song
    i always sang the title part of the song wrong
    Title song = state of my head
    my way - State am i in
    but singing songs the wrong way is fun to me
    because if i sing it the right way it takes the fun out of it.

  8. A.... N....

    so much music is drowned out by autotune, or tecno music. i love bands or artists use actual instruments.

  9. S.... D....

    Will always love this song ❤️

  10. C.... R....

    I love Shinedown and have for 15 to 20 years. My God Brent looks so damn good in this video. I wish I could meet him, that would be a dream come true.

    C.... R....

    then buy tickets

    C.... R....

    @Karinne King if I had the money I would.

    C.... R....

    @Christina Rogers alright.

  11. G.... m....

    2020 🙌

  12. A.... D....

    I Love Shinedown, but I can't stand a large number of other people who listen to them. Bunch of weenies who feel the need to tell detailed, personal life stories about nearly every song having saved their life, inspired them to come out of their shell, or some other sappy "life altering" bullshit that makes you want to stare down the barrel of a 45 while you obligatorily pretend to give a shit. I enjoy Shinedown without any deeper personal context. I'm a simple kind of man.

    A.... D....

    that made no sense

  13. C.... H....

    Where have you been....so gladto be finding you heading back into 2020...its gonna be agreat fucking decade! Cheers!

  14. J.... A....

    Its 2020 buts still listenin to it. 😄

  15. B.... K....

    What hotel is Eric in? @0:46 It's in Vegas right? What a fucking view!!

  16. C.... J....

    Just be sure it’s Lakeland community church& Mount Zion Christian Church on my end! Otherwise I can’t relate! 🍏🍎💘💞💓

  17. P.... M....

    Guys seen you 2019 in tour and you didn’t play this. Wow what a song, you gotta spread the message.

  18. S.... H....

    Hahahaha

  19. j.... r....

    true warrior song indeed, so emotional for me xx

  20. S.... T....

    I first heard this song when I was having a tough time with my first, and only year in college. I was so stressed out, every day I thought I was drowning, and then one day this song comes on as an ad for the music video, right before here I go again by Whitesnake and my heart just fills with confidence and power and it got me through all of that bullshit!

  21. K.... ....

    One of the best bands ever

  22. T.... ....

    Now it's stuck in my stuck in my stuck in my head.

    T.... ....

    Same. Lol

  23. J.... H....

    ✌💯

  24. J.... D....

    Best band in history

  25. 5.... ....

    Seen them last time with alter bridge  didn't think much of them but looking forward to seeing them this time

  26. R.... T....

    Il miglior pezzo degli Shinedown: irripetibile!

  27. R.... M....

    Just seen them in October and I'm watching every page I can that has info on their next tour where they come to Michigan. I will be there again! So much amazing energy in one room.

  28. K.... L....

    This is a battle for life song..... Cannot stop imagining every situation of my life with this playing behind me.

    K.... L....

    @Kirtiraj Lahiry Just making sure you were aware. Didn't want you walking around all oblivious like.

    K.... L....

    @A Drunk Steelers Fan Hahaha. Thanks. Now that you have said I really appreciate the gesture though. 👍

    K.... L....

    Hey it's no problem glad to help!

    K.... L....

    @A Drunk Steelers Fan Cheers bro! And Happy New Year 2020! 👍

    K.... L....

    @Kirtiraj Lahiry Nostrovia! Happy New year man. Let's kick this decade's ass.

  29. B.... T....

    I think there were a few better ways to utilize this music video, but the message is solid ❤️

  30. J.... M....

    This part of town listen to shine down

  31. C.... M....

    (Shinedown pulls up in a bus)
    Me: (stands in front of the door)
    Shinedown: (door opens) round em up...aaa
    Me: say no more I'll be on the bus

  32. R.... O....

    Thank you

  33. M.... ....

    Listen to this before every football game and it gets me so hyped

  34. C.... Z....

    I sa you live in dawson creek

  35. H.... ....

    I first listened to this song 2 years ago. From this very song has led me to see them in concert twice (Third next month) and overcome hard times. The song gives the same energy no matter how many times you listen to this song, you will always get the same, amazing, energy from it. Its also my favourite song!
    Rock on 🤘

  36. M.... m....

    I had a stroke at 19 and have seizures from that. I'm disabled. To get my day started every morning I play this song as soon as i wake up..Kind of my Feel good battle song.I want to say thank you for making it.

  37. T.... ....

    The last beat drop is epic

  38. A.... C....

    Omg Breeeeeennnnnnttt

  39. �.... �....

    💝💝💝💝💝💝😆👏👏👏😘😘😘😘

  40. a.... ....

    best album they ever put out,love every single song

  41. L.... M....

    It's crazy that this album isn't as popular. I guess it sounds a bit more pop like overall, but at the same time not really. Also...not anything wrong with that. They've had songs that weren't heavy rock in every album so...

  42. T.... B....

    The harder you push the rougher I get

  43. W.... R....

    this is my favorite song but they did not play it last 2 time BUT I DON'T CARE BC IT WAS A FUN TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    W.... R....

    last 2 times i went to a concert

  44. A.... M....

    Love this song.

  45. M.... ....

    This song reminds me of *When your ready come and get it*

  46. k.... k....

    Fuck yes.

  47. B.... C....

    I am love with this band..after hearing attention..great job👍💪

  48. H.... D....

    I’m ready for y’all to come back to Greenville SC💙🧡♥️💜! Y’all are the BeST!! I just wished y’all knew how much your songs have saved my life💓💓👌✌️😘😆😊aka changed my life.

  49. R.... l....

    Please don't come back,once was snuff,one album,now your soul is sold ,bye bye,lord have mercy on your soul!!!

  50. R.... M....

    Only way I’m leaving is dead!

  51. A.... B....

    This song needs more than 30-40M views

  52. S.... T....

    Got hooked onto these guys a few months ago really and i love their music. So much so, Im taking my son to see them tomorrow night in Quebec. Hopefully he will like them just as much as me.

  53. K.... G....

    I listen to this every saturday my Michigan State Spartans play during collage football season

  54. S.... K....

    I thought it was “concrete thick skin”. Oh good grief 🤦‍♀️

    S.... K....

    Actually I thought it was that as well lol. It's "concrete street skin" apparently. :)

    S.... K....

    I always heard "Concrete streaked skin"

  55. M.... m....

    Thank you for making this video. I play it every morning.

  56. M.... T....

    I swear they have a song for every mood your in. I love them

  57. r.... ....

    I’m going through all their videos and it’s all complete shit. Their old stuff was so much better

  58. D.... B....

    When you're looking up in the sky, one would ask... "please God, shine down on me" but who is to say they actually shine down on someone to make them a plank plantiff?

    D.... B....

    The christian god is false

  59. C.... D....

    The is real music!!!

  60. W.... X....

    Saw them play in Missoula, MT last night. It was a good show, and would have been a great show if they played this song. Not sure what was up with that. You don't nix a state's favorite song...

    C.... ....

    I was there too ! I was upset because they usually perform this song but not that night . I also wanted them to perform of you only knew.

    C.... ....

    Omg were they good? I've been wanting to see them live but I can never save up the money

    Love this band. Bought tickets 3 months in advance 😎

  73. R.... W....

    I am a RET Army combat veteran of 20 years. This song speaks to anyone that has a personal battle they are fighting. People will never know what it is like for you and unless they have gone through it, they will never understand. Shinedown is an amazing band starting from the first song I heard. Like other bands and songs have done for people, this particular song has gotten me through times that were rough, deadly rough. Even to this day. So I thank the band for the song and what it means to many of us. If they do read this by some small chance, Thank You in all sincerity and graciousness.
