Paranoia from Tender Meat by Laika Loveheart

Have you ever seen the lights coming down from the city above you?
Have you ever seen the lights coming crashing down around you?
Have you ever seen the lights engulfed in flames surround you?
Have you ever seen the lights so strong that it blinds you?

Cause I see it every night in my dreams.
I wake up, cold sweat, no one to keep me warm.
I wake up and there's no one to see me through this.

And this paranoia, it makes it hard to breathe.
I pull this light out from in my dreams.
This paranoia it twists and follows me.
I can't pull these chains out from under me.

Have you ever seen a hundred ships and sails on your shore?
Have you ever seen them pull in one by one?
'Cause I saw it once, and then I saw it again.
And no one believes me everytime it ends.

I don't know how much more of this I'll take.
I don't know where I am, but I do know where I'm going,
And I know just what is waiting at the end.

And this paranoia makes it hard to breathe.
I can't pull this light out from under me.
This paranoia twists and follows me.
I can't keep on playing this game of make believe.
This paranoia can not separate from me.
I can't believe anything I see.

And I guess I'll just keep playing along,
Guess I'll just keep singing the song,
Sing it, sing it, la la la la!
Over again!
I said la,
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
And this paranoia, it makes it hard to breathe.
