1.2.4.PAPERCUT

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today

Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left

I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed

But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head

Like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie

A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)

So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me

You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse

I don't know what set me off first
But I know what I can't stand

Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can but

Everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)

So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin [x3]

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

The sun
I feel the light betray me

The sun
I feel the light betray me

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

2.POINTS OF AUTHORITY

Forfeit the game
Before somebody else

Takes you out of the frame
Puts your name to shame

Cover up your face
You can't run the race

The pace is too fast
You just won't last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through

You take away if I give in
My life
My pride is broken

You like to think you're never wrong
(You live what you've learned)

You have to act like you're someone
(You live what you've learned)

You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you've learned)

You want to share what you have been through
(You live what you've learned)

You love the things I say I'll do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you

You take away when I give in
My life
My pride is broken

Forfeit the game
Before somebody else

Takes you out of the frame
Puts your name to shame

Cover up your face
You can't run the race

The pace is too fast
You just won't last
