Gotta Get Away

I'm gettin Edgy

All the time.

There's someone around me

Just a step behind.

It's kinda scary,

The shape I'm in.

The walls are shakin'

And they're closing in.

Too fast or

A bit too slow

I'm paranoid of people

And it's starting to show.

There's one guy that

I just can't shake

Over my shoulder

Is a big mistake.

Sitting on the bed

or lying wide awake.

There's demons in my head

And it's more than I can take.

I think I'm on a roll

But I think it's kinda weak.

Saying all I know is

I gotta get away from me

I tell you something

Just ain't right.

My head is on loose

But my shoes are tight.

Avoiding friends 'cause

They all bug.

Life is like a riddle

And I'm really stumped.

If you reason,

Don't you know

Your own preoccupation

Is where you'll go.

I think I'm being followed,

I look around

It's only my shadow

Creeping on the ground.
