Slow Paranoia

Lyrics

(Rap)
It was night when I opened my eyes
Thoughts clouding my mind,
Nothing, no voice coming through,
no hands reaching out,
no light falling down.
It was slow...
Slow paranoia.
(Chorus)
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoi-a.

(Verse 1)
In the corner of my room, there was fire.
Blue flames lit for the whole time
Undisturbed by the chimes
In and out of my ears
And the beating of my chest
Leaving me
here.
I see eyes.
Eyes on me.
Eyes,
They don’t leave me.
Eyes,
Where is my sanity?
Lights going out and I
still haven’t found my way out.
Please,
Let me breath.
(Ooooo-Oo-Oooo)
My shadow has come for me
Bearing only silver
To brandish my neck
As I rest.

(Rap)
It was night when I opened my eyes
Thoughts clouding my mind,
Nothing, no voice coming through,
no hands reaching out,
no light falling down.
It was slow.
Slow.
Slow.
Slow paranoia.
(Chorus)
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoi-a.

(Verse 2)
The mirror lies to me,
It shows someone else.
A liar
Speaking without hearing,
To the point
No one will find me.
The real me,
In my dreams,
Is all alone,
Not afraid.
It was the best of the worst.
The only truth I know
Keeping me sane
Away
From everybody.
Including myself.
They were a beast
With wings
Toying with my glass heart,
Flying too close to the halo
And sinking into the abyss.
Letting nothing escape.

(Rap)
When I opened my eyes
Thoughts emptied my mind,
It’s coming through,
hands reaching out,
light casting down.
It was slow...
Slow paranoia.
(Chorus)
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoi-a.

(Closing)
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoia.
Slow, slow, slow paranoi-a.
If I give life a second chance,
Could I do it better?
...slow paranoia...
