So tired, Derailed, So wired, So vacant and pale. Pretentious, Opaque, Realistic, My heart expatriates. So manic, I’m pullin’ out my hair. Manic. So tired, Derailed, So wired, So vacant and pale. So manic (jerking back and forth like--) I’m pullin’ out my hair (--a jack out of the box) So manic (torture’s just the axle to--) I’m pullin’ out my hair (--the wheels I must appease) Torture’s just the axle to the wheels I must appease.

I'm turning backwards, at the drop of a dime! I keep on flinching, when someone asks for the time! Oh but I can't tell what is wrong I think I'm losing my mind, but my shrink he says I'm fine, just gotta give it some time, but oh I'm paranoid! I've been changing lately, I'm paranoid, yeah all day and nightly, my fingers keep on twitching and my mind's on a fuse, because I'm para-para-paranoid! I'm watching you! I'm flinching sideways, make sure no one's around! I'll take a powder, but barely make a sound! And oh I always get that feeling that someone stops and stares, but my mom she says to chill out cause no one really cares, but oh I'm paranoid I've been changing lately! I'm paranoid, I might be crazy slightly! My heart is always pumping and my brain's never true, because I'm para-para-paranoid! I'm watching you! Pacing in my kitchen, looking under my bed! My soul it feels like fire, my mind consumed by dread... I'm paranoid! I've been changing lately, I'm paranoid, yeah all day and nightly, my fingers keep on twitching and my mind's on a fuse, because I'm para-para-paranoid! para-para-paranoid! para-para-paranoid! I'm watching you!

You don’t have to look at me, For me to know what you’re thinking Without your eyes burning I have spent a little time Just going through my mind Baby, I don’t care for this life Look at me now While you’re standing down Finally free now From your hold. Never really knew what I want Never really thought that I could be Free from you Free from you Always kinda knew how I felt But never really shouted out loud Free from you Free from you I thought that you were mine When I looked you in the eyes Guess I was mistaken All, that you would ever want Was someone to hold on Make you feel important Look at me now While you’re standing down Finally free now From your hold. Never really knew what I want Never really thought that I could be Free from you Free from you Always kinda knew how I felt But never really shouted out loud Free from you Free from you And every time I do not know why I cry, and nothing feels right You say you don’t feel the same I hate your stupid games We could never really be The way you treated me Made me feel like I couldn’t breathe Never really knew what I want Never really thought that I could be Free from you Free from you Always kinda knew how I felt But never really shouted out loud Free from you Free from you
