Artist: dream theater
Song: panic attack
Album: Octavarium
Year: 2005
All wound up on the edge
Terrified
Sleep disturbed restless mind
Petrified
Bouts of fear permeate
All I see
Heightening nervousness
Threatens me
I am paralyzed
So afraid to die
Caught off guard warning signs
Never show
Tension strikes choking me
Worries grow
Why do I feel so numb?
Is it something to do with where I come from?
Should this be fight or flight?
I don't know why I'm constantly so uptight
Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest
Agitated body in distress
I feel like I'm in danger
Daily life is strangled by my stress
A stifling surge
Shooting through all my veins
Extreme apprehension
Suddenly I'm insane
Lost all hope for redemption
A grave situation desperate at best
Why do I feel so numb?
Is it something to do with where I come from?
Should this be fight or flight?
I don't know why I'm constantly reeling
Helpless hysteria
A false sense of urgency
Trapped in my phobia
Possessed by anxiety
Run
Try to hide
Overwhelmed
By this complex delirium
Helpless hysteria
A false sense of urgency
Trapped in my phobia
Possessed by anxiety
Run
Try to hide
Overwhelmed
By this complex delirium
