Paranoid

(álbum: Cuz We Can - 2002)

Come on, come on, come on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You turn away when I come around
I ain't even looked at you
When I look at you, you look down
Look crazy, tell me who are you?
I get this shit 'cause when I hear a sound
Brooks, "Kill everybody"
People talking in my head, I hear 'em screaming, want to shut 'em down
And everyday I run away
But I don't know where I'm going
End up back where I stay
Giving up, brain overflowing
Disarray, pain, dismay
I'm in a lot of pain, for sure
I call my momma but she told me take a Tegritol and go away
I write shit on the wall
But it doesn't make any sense
God's gonna kill you all
If you are, no he isn't
Pop another Rispidol
Or maybe I should take four
I put my head through a mirror and nobody seemed to care at all
Back from another bender
But I don't know when I'm coming off
Threw the T.V. through the window
Honey, can you turn it off?
Ask my girl, "where's my fucking dinner?"
Lucky I'm even here
She told me, "make it for yourself!"
And then she hit me with a blender
Just because you're paranoid does not mean the whole world ain't against you
If you had to stand alone I'd bet you'd bring a friend to keep you
Company, and I understand
I'm scared as you are and
I swear to God my mind's working against me
Killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
Chest tight, shallow breath, scared to death, cottonmouth
Nervous, taking sweaters and devils' inside me kicking his way outta me
Lie to me, tell me I'm normal and begging me
And now could it be the way I'm living
I got me thinking everybody's after me, so casually
These strangers be staring when they passing me
And I get the feeling they know I only work half the week
And I'm just waiting for one of these sorry son of a bitches to laugh at me
So I can let the demon preceed and bleed
I've been geeking 3 weeks and I need some peace
This razzamatazz and pizzazz, has like I'm Alcatraz
Dire for getting me higher, shows like the wires on my tires
Having a panic attack in the back of a Cadillac on crack
What's the fact, what the fuck, how to act
I'm feeling stuck, what if it fades to black
Just because you're paranoid does not mean the whole world ain't against you
If you had to stand alone I'd bet you'd bring a friend to keep you
Company, and I understand
I'm scared as you are and
I swear to God my mind's working against me
Killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
But I really gotta wonder why
Your head is in the way
No matter what I do I can't die
I'll try it anyway
No matter what I do I ain't high
Speed, Special-K
So I'm copping me a bird and stick it in my mouth... bye, bye
Brookie, don't do that
That's what I'm shooting for
Or at least get it on that
Record label whore
Before you do that
Just release the album
So we can make a million dollars off you just to buy a Cadillac
Just because you're paranoid does not mean the whole world ain't against you
If you had to stand alone I'd bet you'd bring a friend to keep you
Company, and I understand
I'm scared as you are and
I swear to God my mind's working against me
Killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
Just because you're paranoid does not mean the whole world ain't against you
If you had to stand alone I'd bet you'd bring a friend to keep you
Company, and I understand
I'm scared as you are man
I swear to God my mind's working against me
Killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
Please release this fear from me
Wherefore art thou sanity?
Bleeding joy, I have no skin
Turn off the noise, I'm caving in
I cry and pray, I lay awake
Could someone please just make it go away
Just because you're paranoid does not mean the whole world ain't against you
If you had to stand alone I'd bet you'd bring a friend to keep you
Company, and I understand
I'm scared as you are and
I swear to God my mind's working against me
Killing me, killing me, killing me, illing me
