Title : Papercut
Why does it feel like night today? Something in here’s not right today.
Why am I so uptight today? Paranoia is 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.
Like a face that I hold inside, a face that awakes when I close my eyes,
A face that I watch every time I lie,
A face that laughs every time 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.

A face that I watch every time I lie,
A face that laughs every time 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.
