Paranoid, the second single that is released by Charlie Bit My Finger on Thousand Islands Records and Bearded Punk Records. This track takes you on a journey inside the singer’s head. Diede Van Muylder’s very deep lyrics combined with dark guitars and drums make this single “the one where Charlie’s going black”
lyrics
These voices make me wild,
I’m heading left and right.
At the same time,
doesn't feel right.
Thoughts running through my head.
I’m turning good and bad!
Getting pumped up
and I can’t stop.
There's a fire burning in my head.
There's someone watching me, it wants me dead.
I think I’m going paranoid,
Paranoid, paranoid!
I think I’m going paranoid
I’m entering a newborn void.
Compulsions in my head,
to always watch my back!
Getting ready,
for the backstab.
I hear footsteps coming at me.
Is it the fear of the dark that gets me?
Cause I'm running in circles,
I'm hiding behind the curtains!
There's a fire burning in my head.
There's someone watching me, it wants me dead.
I think I’m going paranoid,
Paranoid, paranoid!
I think I’m going paranoid
I’m entering a newborn void.
I feel so paranoid.
There's a fire burning in my head.
