Nowhere To Run
 
 

Too trusting and gullible
Taken in by deception
That was before
When I was lacking perception.
I woke up one day in realization
Saw everything through different eyes
No more would I believe the lies
I saw the world turn into stone
While I stood there all alone
Can never be sure who's on my side
Create a world of my own
Where I can hide from the rest
That's what I thought best
Inside I feel the void
And I get paranoid.
My overactive suspicion
Makes me live in constant fear
I'm forever on guard
As the enemy draws near
There's nowhere to run
And I can trust no-one
Every way that I look fingers pointing at me
And the looks that I get full of sheer mockery
The voices in my head are driving me crazy
"You're worthless" they say "fat, ugly and lazy"
Every laugh that I hear seems directed at me
I'm locked up in this prison
Can't seem to break free
