Something in here's not right today.

Why am I so uptight today?

Paranoia's 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

It's like a face that I hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face watches 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

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back

It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within

It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me

Points out all my mistakes to me

You've got a face on the inside too and

Your paranoia's probably worse

I don't know what set me off first but I know what I

can't stand

Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is

I can't add up to what you can but

Everybody has a face that they hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face watches every time they lie

A face that laughs every time they fall

(And watches everything)

So you know that when it's time to sink or swim

That the face inside is watching you too

Right inside your skin

Chorus

The face inside is right beneath your skin (3x)

The sun goes down

I feel the light betray me (Repeat until end)

Chorus (Repeat until end)

ONE STEP CLOSER:

I cannot take this anymore

I'm saying everything I've said before

All these words they make no sense

I find bliss in ignorance

Less I hear the less you'll say

But you'll find that out anyway

Just like before...

Everything you say to me

Takes me one step closer to the edge

And I'm about to break

I need a little room to breathe

Cause I'm one step closer to the edge

And I'm about to break

I find the answers aren't so clear

Wish I could find a way to disappear

All these thoughts they make no sense

I find bliss in ignorance

Nothing seems to go away

Over and over again

shut up when I'm talking to you

WITH YOU:

I woke up in a dream today

To the cold of the static / and put my cold feet on

the floor Forgot all about yesterday

Remembering I’m pretending to be where I’m not anymore

A little taste of hypocrisy

And I’m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react

Even though you’re so close to me

You’re still so distant / And I can’t bring you back

It’s true / the way I feel

Was promised by your face The sound of your voice

Painted on my memories

Even if you’re not with me

I’m with you

You / Now I see/ keeping everything inside

You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes

I hit you and you hit me back

We fall to the floor / the rest of the day stands still

Fine line between this and that

When things go wrong I pretend the past isn’t real

Now I'm trapped in this memory

And I’m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react

Even though you’re close to me

You’re still so distant / And I can’t bring you back

no

No matter how far we've come

I can't wait to see tomorrow

With you
