[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Hello me, meet the real me and my misfits way of life

A dark, black past is my most valued possession

Hindsight is always 20-20

But looking back, it's still a bit fuzzy

Speak of mutually assured destruction

Nice story, tell it to Reader's Digest

[Chorus 1]

Feeling paranoid, true enemy or false friend?

Anxiety's attacking me and my hair is getting thin

I'm in trouble for the things I haven't got to yet

I'm chomping at the bit and my palms are getting wet

Sweating bullets

[Verse 2]

Hello me, it's me again

You can subdue, but never tame me

It gives me a migraine headache, sinking down to your level

Yeah, just keep on thinking it's my fault

And stay an inch or two out of kicking distance

Mankind has got to know his limitations

[Chorus 2]

Feeling claustrophobic like the walls are closing in

Bloodstains on my hands and I don't know where I've been

I'm in trouble for the things I haven't got to yet

I'm sharpening the axe and my palms are getting wet

Sweating bullets

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

I hear it in hear...

Blood stains on my... hands

The big axe...

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha...

Sweating, sweating

Sweating, sweating

Sweating, sweating

[Verse 3]

Well, me, it's nice talking to myself

A credit to dementia

Someday, you too will know my pain

And smile its black-toothed grin

If the war inside my head won't take a day off, I'll be dead

My icy fingers claw your back

Here I come again

[Chorus 3]

Feeling paranoid, true enemy or false friend?

Anxiety's attacking me, and my hair is getting thin

Feeling claustrophobic like the walls are closing in

Blood stains on my hands and I don't know where I've been

[Outro]

Once you've committed me (Committed me)

Now you've acquitted me (Acquitted me)

Claiming validity (Validity)

For your stupidity (Stupidity)

I'm chomping at the bit

I'm sharpening the axe

Oh, here I come again, whoa!

Sweating bullets
