Dark times and shadows cast
But I'm pretty hard to convince
Eyes spy from dark windows
And I'll draw this line and hope you take my side
Faces threaten from behind closed doors
Oh, there's no relief
And I'll draw this line and hope you take my side
(You shouldn't have to fight at all)
(Paranoia woven deep beneath my skin)
It's nobody's battle but your own
Your pride or some kind of personal war?
The mind bruises just a little bit easier
I draw this line and hope you'll take my side
Oh, this world can offer
I stay in time and watch you pass by
Oh, this world can offer me
Or maybe not I don't really know
(You shouldn't have to fight at all)
This life style's getting old
And will you throw it away?
What are you suffering for?
Oh, there's no relief
I tell myself that it's all in my head
There is something waiting for me
This is just self-induced terror
It's nobody's battle but your own
I'll stay in time and watch you pass by
Panic holds me like a gun
(Breath slow, breath slow)
You shouldn't have to fight alone
You shouldn't have to fight alone
I think it's time to kill the drama
There's more to come, this is just a glimpse
(Breath slow, breath slow)
Plotting minds that seek to harm me
I'll stay in time and watch you pass by
For nothing more than the simple taste?
Firm and steadfast bleak and cold
(Paranoia woven deep beneath my skin)
You shouldn't have to fight alone
In the darkest part of my imagination
