Why does it feel like night today
something in there's not right today
why am i so uptight today
paranoia's all i got left
i don't know what stressed me first
or how the pressure was fed
but i know just what it feels like
to have a voice in the back of my head
it's like a face that i hold inside
a face that awakes when i close my eyes
a face watches everytime i lie
a face that laughs everytime i fall
[and watches everything]
so i know that when it's time to sink or swim
that the face inside is hearing me / right underneath my skin

It's like I'm / Paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a / whirlwind inside of my head
it's like I / can't stop what i'm hearing within
it's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
your paranoia's promamly worse
I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can
But everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when they close their eyes
A face whatches everytime they lie
A face that laughs everytime they fall
[and watches everything]
so you know that when it's time to sink or swim
that the face insede is watching you too / right inside your skin

It's like I'm / Paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a / whirlwind inside of my head
it's like I / can't stop what i'm hearing within
it's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
It's like I'm / Paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a / whirlwind inside of my head
it's like I / can't stop what i'm hearing within
it's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

[the face inside is right beneath my skin] X4

the sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
