C5
All wound up, on the edge, terrified
Ab5 G5 Bb5 C5
Sleep disturbed, restless mind, petrified
Ab5 G5 Bb5 C5
Bouts of fear permeate all I see
Ab5 G5 Bb5 C5
Heightening nervousness threatens me
Ab5 G5 Bb5 Eb5
I am paralyzed
So afraid to die
C5
Caught off guard, warning signs never show
Ab5 G5 Bb5 C5
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

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

[Music: Dream Theater, Lyrics: John Petrucci]
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
