As my unhinged thoughts drive me insane,
I just can’t seem to shake them off,
Often my thoughts they call my bluff.

I think people’s words of love are empty,
Even when they tell me plenty,
In the back on my mind is a little voice,
Who tells me that leaving is my only choice.

I try to block out these doubt filled words,
But as always they are clearly heard,
Questions whizzing around inside,
From my paranoia I can not hide.

I really do feel like I’ve been cursed,
Since this problem became unearthed,
I want to believe the people who are near,
But I am totally riddled with fear.

Will I ever be really free?
Or will this burden forever sit on my knee,
Sneering at me through gritted teeth,
Making me feel ever so more weak.

The Curse Of Paranoia

Paranoia should be my middle name,
As my unhinged thoughts drive me insane,
I just can’t seem to shake them off,
Often my thoughts they call my bluff.

I think people’s words of love are empty,
Even when they tell me plenty,
In the back on my mind is a little voice,
Who tells me that leaving is my only choice.

I try to block out these doubt filled words,
But as always they are clearly heard,
Questions whizzing around inside,
From my paranoia I can not hide.

I really do feel like I’ve been cursed,
Since this problem became unearthed,
I want to believe the people who are near,
But I am totally riddled with fear.

Will I ever be really free?
Or will this burden forever sit on my knee,
Sneering at me through gritted teeth,
Making me feel ever so more weak.
