Strangers at the door, voices down the hall Wait, there's more than one Thought I was come alone Should I use the phone, should I try to run Whenever I'm up late, reality just do unwind Feel like I'm losing up, a prisoner in my own mind I keep waking up and thinking someone's at the door I keep running open to the shadows on the floor Makes it sound silly, voices call my name But I can't ignore them, I can't ignore All night and day, suffering the strain Of PARANOIA, PARANOIA I can't run away, when you're wide awake You gotta face what's in front of ya But I was afraid, but I knew I had to stay With whom I've become There's someone peeping close, someone's peeping close Over my shoulder, shoulder When I turn around, then I turn around And I know it, know it I keep waking up and thinking someone's at the door I keep running open to the shadows on the floor Makes it sound silly, voices call my name But I can't ignore them, I can't ignore All night and day, suffering the strain Of PARANOIA, PARANOIA
