Paranoia

Every nightmare that seeks to find

Purchase in your very mind

Creeps and crawls and wriggles there

And then your brain beings to tare.

 

Doubts that seep, and leech within

Are your excuses growing thin?

 

Can you hear the wolves that bay

At the door, what do they say?

Is it them or only you

That feels the chill creeping through?

 

Are those eyes upon your neck,

Do you dare turn to check?

 

Now the feeling's taken hold

And your secrets all are sold.

Who then is left on your side,

Where on this earth do they reside?

 

Your broken thoughts do contend

They all betray you in the end.

 

No hope will your mind allow

Paranoia has you now.
