Persecution mania

Confusion
I hate the way the others ?re looking at me
Why don't they believe in my credibility?
[I can't stand this; it's confusing]
I lose myself, can't find my mind
[oh I can find nothing, oh I can't find]

Bridge:
Persecution mania
Is that the way they are makin ya?
I'm insane, these eyes follow me
And everything is hollow and killing me
Why do they stare at me?
[all these eyes are chasing me, haunting me]
I can't handle this right
These eyes blind more than every light
Even in the darkness of the night
[never let me sleep, oh it's so hard to describe]

Chorus:
I can't scream
I can't shout
I can't let everything out
I can't handle it
I can't stand all this
[persecution mania]
I'm the same way you are
Everything seems just so far
But these eyes are so near
Faces, who follow me! Why do I fear?
This mania is clear
[persecution mania]
It's taking me down

Hating
Why do I trust in this bad thing?
Why does this make me so madding?
[but I trust and believe in it]
Why can't I make these eyes go away?
[far away, far away, just away from me!!]

Screaming
Crying, everybody's lying
[these eyes must die!]
Oh, these eyes
I can feel them rise
[go down in flames, go down!!!]

All this is confusing
It's like they try to consume me
But they don't wanna fool me
Just wanna make me crazy
