When a muscle spasms randomly, is the brain telling it to do that or is it doing it on its own?

Question

I’m talking about when your eye twitches or you get a charley horse. Is it your brain mistakenly telling that muscle to move, or is it moving without being told?

Myoclonic jerk… after my car wreck I’ve been having these like crazy they put me on muscle relaxers just to calm them down because it was causing so much pain in my legs.
