Paranoia & Anxiety
Once upon a long ago I had a simple life
I didn't think too much
There wasn't any strife
I woke up in the morning
I went and did my things
I fell asleep at night
And then repeated everything
But now there's something lurking inside my head
A little voice and here is what it says
"You are not good, you're nowhere near great"
"Go back to sleep and waste away your days"
Oh my head
Telling me I'm better off dead
Fix me up with all these lies
All this paranoia and anxiety
Won't somebody please help me shut it up?
Moved a couple thousand miles
That's when the cracks emerged
I'm hearing all these voices
What are these brand new words?
The seasons they are changing
The gardens are now dead
Why do these people stare at me?
Is this all in my head?
All of these things that I cannot control
I do not want them in my world
No thanks! It's a real big bother
And it's taking quite a hold
Of way too many of my days
Oh my head
Telling me I'm better off dead
Fix me up with all these lies
All this paranoia and anxiety
Won't somebody please help me shut it up?
I didn't think too much
There wasn't any strife
I woke up in the morning
I went and did my things
I fell asleep at night
And then repeated everything
But now there's something lurking inside my head
A little voice and here is what it says
"You are not good, you're nowhere near great"
"Go back to sleep and waste away your days"
Oh my head
Telling me I'm better off dead
Fix me up with all these lies
All this paranoia and anxiety
Won't somebody please help me shut it up?
Moved a couple thousand miles
That's when the cracks emerged
I'm hearing all these voices
What are these brand new words?
The seasons they are changing
The gardens are now dead
Why do these people stare at me?
Is this all in my head?
All of these things that I cannot control
I do not want them in my world
No thanks! It's a real big bother
And it's taking quite a hold
Of way too many of my days
Oh my head
Telling me I'm better off dead
Fix me up with all these lies
All this paranoia and anxiety
Won't somebody please help me shut it up?
