Paranoia

Jase Lucero Pinski 2003 (Great Falls)



Paranoia
Silence
Your walking
hear nobody talking
Feel someone stalking
Shiver is shocking
Silence
A sound
Behind you the ground
Feet go pound
From fright your bound
Can't look around
Silence
Break in your fear
Nothing is clear
something is near
Eyes now tear
Silence
Put distance between
Something not seen
Air seems not clean
Grass not green
Silence
Nothings the same
It calls out your name
You play it's deadly game
A monster you cant tame
Silence
Now you pay
You die or you slay
You won't last another day
Choose black or choose gray
Silence
You grab the gun
This game isn't fun
You just wanted the sun
But now your done
BANG
Silence
