This is a miner case of paranoia I can feel the vein has run dry And as the sweat slowly trickles down the length of my shriveled arms I slowly get weathered down by the earth piled around and this rusting old spade in my clutches scrapes at the ground Digging for something under my skin And I'm deeper and deeper, closer to you my dear, ever closer to fear, I hold on to my dream, fingers around the handle, with the walls that scream, walls that I've never paid any attention to, suddenly caving in. and I'm building a mine shaft, a tunnel of sweat and blood from the blisters on my otherwise disappointingly empty hands This dream of mine, It keeps me here This is a minor case of Paranoia. I can feel that the dream is a lie And as the dust slowly settles down To rest on my twisted arms I slowly get broken down To the earth piled around And this freezing cold spade in my clutches, Paws at the ground Digging for something under my skin. And I'm deeper and deeper, closer to you my dear, ever closer to fear, and I hold on to my dream, fingers around the handle, with the walls that I've never paid any attention to, screaming, finally crumbling apart, crashing down, caving in.
