Paranoia

Burn the midnight oil I’ll be awake tonight Connecting dots, Finding the way out Paranoia, it comes in circles And is headed right for you Headed right for you! I’ll be up tonight I’ll be up tonight I was so close to you But now I’m as far away as I can’t get Paranoia! It comes in circles And is headed right for you So close your eyes and get lost with me! So close your eyes and get lost with me! To another space in time Where you can’t lose track To another space in time Where you won’t look back There’s no gravity to hold me together What we are How we feel Why we felt it Things in the air won’t change To another place, another date As we watch time cut away Looking back now I would have done this all the same Would have done this all the same All the same, same No state of mind control is far from sight It has us running blind Paranoia! Is headed right for you So close your eyes and get lost with me! So close your eyes and get lost with me! To another space in time Where you can’t lose track To another space in time Where you won’t look back There’s no gravity to hold me together This thorn thrown in my side For the last time I see the start and won’t fear the finish line For me this isn’t it I won’t quit, I’ll beat the sickness You think I’m crazy but I’m doing just fine Living inside of my own mind --- Paranoia - Texas in July
