Paranoia 21

PARANOIA 21
Words: Briggs Baritugo
Music: Brew and Briggs Baritugo

My loss begins to get the best of me
The deeper I see the longer I seek
Tomorrow's promise is yesterday's sorrow
I will not even begin to understand
The darkness I have borrowed

The devil in me brings up
Her bittersweet revenge
Only only only only
To bring me down again
To bring me down again
To bring me down again

Children's laughter envelops me
Ain't it funny how memories of what could never be
Fills me up and grips the worst of
Fills me up and grips the worst of
Fills me up and grips the worst of me

I'm running out of doors to open
I'm running out of ways to change
Drift along with parting words
And everything I'd ever want
And everything I'd ever do
Would come from the madness of my youth
