Here it comes
Once again
Irrational
I give in
Paranoia
Expands within
Little voices start to begin

Everyone's out to take your joy away
Constantly scheming to keep us at bay
Everyone's plotting and they are just taking
You must make it stop
Make them pay

Sometimes I just take things
Way too far
Irrational feeling
I just try too hard 'cause
What goes up, must come down
The problem is I have no bounds 'cause
Sometimes I just take things way too far

Reality is surreal
Wretchedness is all I feel
Now its really just a way
God, I hear the voices say

Everyone's out to take your joy away
Constantly scheming to keep us at bay
Everyone's plotting and they are just taking
You must make it stop
Make them pay

Sometimes I just take things
Way Too Far
Irrational feeling
I just try too hard 'cause
What goes up, must come down
The problem is I have no bounds 'cause
Sometimes I just take things Way Too Far

Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!

Sometimes I just take things
Way too far
Irrational feeling
I just try too hard 'cause
What goes up, must come down
The problem is I have no bounds 'cause
Sometimes I just take things way too far
