Gotta Get Away

Offspring

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.
