"A Place for my Head" is a song by Linkin Park from the Hybrid Theory album. It is their 2nd heaviest song on the album with in front as first One Step Closer. The song was originally called "Esaul" named after a friend of Linkin Park. There are several versions of the song. There are three demos of it, all called "Esaul", including a garage recording. There is a live version on Live in Texas, and there is a remix of it called "Plc.4 Mie Hæd" on Linkin Park's remix album, Reanimation which was reinterpretated by Amp Live featuring Zion on extra rap vocals. On the Frat Party at the Pankake Festival DVD, there is an easter egg of a recording session of this in 1999. This is notable because it is before Chester Bennington got his flame tattoos on his wrists. Another reason it is notable is because it features different lyrics than the studio recording of the demo. The song's lyrics, like those of most Linkin Park tracks, deals with angst and alienation - in this case, in a relationship in which one partner continually performs small favors for the other, then demands these favors be repaid. A song is a relatively short musical composition for the human voice (commonly accompanied by other musical instruments), which generally (exceptions would be scat songs) features words (lyrics). ...

The "Esaul" version of the song features different lyrics from Mike, as well as a noticeably more "raw" feel to the whole song. During the Live in Texas show, Linkin Park performed this as the second to last song (last being One Step Closer), signaling the crowd to do a massive mosh pit. Indeed, A Place For My Head is usually one of the last songs performed at Linkin Park concerts.
