[Verse 1]
Paranoia is the insect worming its way
Through my subconscious thoughts
It's the larva of my self-doubt
Gestating in my heart as I spiral down
And everything I touch is breaking
And it falls to earth in splinters
And I shiver as every splinter
Finds its way underneath my skin
And after 22 years, I can still make my skin crawl
Every shortcoming's a pitfall
[Pre-Chorus]
On my way
To making amends
Within myself to be
To be what I became
[Chorus]
Sometimes, it feels like the whole wide world
Has made itself my enemy
But I will stand upon my own two feet
And raise, raise my head up
[Verse 2]
I lick my wounds
Trying to cleanse the infection
Rabid and diseased
Reality fades away
When I pushed myself too far
A dream of emotional perfection
Has left a wounded heart
Trying to perceive the gifts inherent inside me
It's like squeezing the trigger
It's like opening fire
Paranoia is the insect worming its way
Through my subconscious thoughts
It's the larva of my self-doubt
Gestating in my heart as I spiral down
And everything I touch is breaking
And it falls to earth in splinters
And I shiver as every splinter
Finds its way underneath my skin
And after 22 years, I can still make my skin crawl
Every shortcoming's a pitfall
[Pre-Chorus]
On my way
To making amends
Within myself to be
To be what I became
[Chorus]
Sometimes, it feels like the whole wide world
Has made itself my enemy
But I will stand upon my own two feet
And raise, raise my head up
[Verse 2]
I lick my wounds
Trying to cleanse the infection
Rabid and diseased
Reality fades away
When I pushed myself too far
A dream of emotional perfection
Has left a wounded heart
Trying to perceive the gifts inherent inside me
It's like squeezing the trigger
It's like opening fire
