Paranoia is the insect worming its way through my subconscious thoughts.
It’s the larva of my self doubt,
Gestating in my heart as I spiral down.
And everything I touch is breaking
And it falls to the earth in splinters
And I shiver as every splinter finds its way
Underneath my skin.
And after 22 years I can still make my skin crawl.
Every shortcoming's a pitfall.
On my way to makin amends
Within myself to be (to be what I became).
Sometimes it feels like the whole wide world has made itself my enemy.
But I will stand upon my own two feet and raise, raise my head up.
I lick my wounds trying to cleanse the infection.
Rabid and diseased,
Reality fades away.
When I pushed myself too far,
A dream of emotional perfection
Has left a wounded heart.
Trying to perceive the gifts inherent inside me,
It’s like squeezing the trigger,
It’s like opening fire
On everyone who’s let me down,
On every beautiful lie that is (that is only fiction)
Sometimes it feels like the whole wide world has made itself my enemy.
But I will stand upon my own two feet and raise, raise my head up
For the first time,
I’m losing control and I like it.
Freedom feels like the noose is gone.
For the first time,
I’m losing control and I like it.
Freedom feels like the noose is gone.

No matter what you fuckers say Atreyu will always be great and just because they sign any fucking record it does not mean they won't be as good as before. Their new album is not the best but it is still fucking great and atreyu will always be GODS.
Actually alota people would care -.- going from some of their best songs (Tulips are Better, Bleeding Mascara, and Demonology andf Heartache) to shitty stuff of their new album, i'll admit there are maybe 2 or 3 good songs on it. If you ask me they're just wasting there talent
ok, so your saying that Atreyu is gunna suck because they are signed to the same lable as hillary duff? wtf.....its not like they are gunna make them right shitty, and who cares if they do go main stream, hey, they are makeing the money, not you so shut the fuck up
Great song...be quiet critics. | Reviewer: Alex | 8/28/08
This song is amazing,
But I disagree about the new album.
Although the older stuff is better, this album isn't bad, and song such as Slow Burn, Falling Down and Epic are good.
Lets see what their next album is like.
Atreyu!
what does this say about the quality of the new album?

i love their old stuff but their latest album (lead sails paper anchor) .. its nothing like their old stuff.. the only good songs on that whole album are "become the bull", "cant happen here" and "no one cares"
It's a great song.
Back before they went all mainstream.
Since they left Victory Records and signed to Hollywood Records, Hilary Duff is signed to Hollywood - what's that have to say about Atreyu's next album?
I'm sure it'll be just peachy.. ..in the pop top 10 list.
And that just sucks, because they were such a fricken' amazing band. =(
But.. anyway, great song.
