PAPERCUT
Why does it feel like night today?
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 that watched everytime I lie
A face that laughs everytime I fall
(And watched everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim,
That face inside is hearing me/
Right underneath my skin

CHORUS
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 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 they close their eyes
A face that watches everytime they lie
A face that laughs everytime 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 sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
