Papercut

Why does it feel like night today?

Something in heres not right today…

Why am I so uptight today?

Paranoias all I got left

I dont 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

Its like a face that I hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face watches every time I lie

A face that laughs every time I fall

(And watches everything)

So I know that when its time to sink or swim

That the face inside is hearing me

right beneath my skin

Its like Im paranoid lookin over my back

Its like a whirlwind inside of my head

Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within

Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know Ive got a face in me

points out all the mistakes to me

Youve got a face on the inside too and

Your paranoias probably worse

I dont know what set me off first

but I know what I cant stand

Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is

I cant 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 watches every time they lie

A face that laughs every time they fall

(And watches everything)

So you know that when its time to sink or swim

That the face inside is watching you too

right inside your skin

(Tthe face inside is right beneath my skin) x3

The sun goes down

I feel the light betray me
