Paranoia

Cut away the cord
Pull away the curtain
I'm ready to show I knew
Simplify the source
Amplify the reasons
I'm ready to stage my truth

And hide me somewhere underground
Fingerprints burned and blotted out
In time I'll watch the world all burn
They've alternative leanings when
They speak with secret meanings and
My secret's that I'm self-assured

This paranoia
This confidence
Megalomania
In vogue again
I'll self-destroy, I know
You all will see
This paranoia
They're out for me
And I'm paranoid

Follow what you like
Set the facts aside and
See just how far you go
Careful what you find
They don't need a reason
Just find that it's all controlled

So hide me somewhere underground
Biases all assured now
In time I'll watch the world all burn
They've alternative meanings when
I feel like I've been targeted
My secret's that I'm self-confirmed

This paranoia
This confidence
Megalomania
In vogue again
I'll self-destroy, I know
But you all will see
This paranoia
They're out for me
And I'm paranoid

Looking for the lesson
In my little hat of tin
Speaking softly to the silence
'Cause I know they're listening
They got poison in the water
Now there's something in my blood
But I'm sure I've got solutions
To the problems I thought up

And I'm the only one not crazy
I'm the only one who's sane
I'm the only one who sees things
In their only true way
So I got it right, and now I believe
I have come so far that I can't see
The sinking and the drowning
In my own conspiracy

I'm paranoid
Now you're paranoid

This paranoia
This confidence
Megalomania
In vogue again
I'll self-destroy I know
But you all will see
This paranoia
They're out for me
And I'm paranoid

One day you all will see
Why I'm paranoid
One day you all will see
Why I'm paranoid
