I watch them drawing diabolic designs
Coupled with an overactive mind
I read the chemicals in all of your eyes
Cold calculation and a clever disguise
You said it’s all in my ahead again
And I’m just going deaf from the noise
But I know that you’re one of them
And I’m not just being paranoid…
I need some eyes in the back of my head
Or just some cameras attached to my friends
They’re putting drugs in my water again
They want to break me but I ain’t giving in
You said it’s all in my ahead again
And I’m just going deaf from the noise
But I know that you’re one of them
And I’m not just being paranoid…
I’ll play the part of the innocent fool
Just long enough to decipher the truth
Manipulating in the subtlest ways
These demons and tormentors will pay…
