Paranoia

25.03.20

When your brain is used to trickery 
It eats itself alive
Deceit is all you know 
And the way you have survived 

Be vigilant with friends
And vigilant with foes 
On guard for lies so constantly 
Analysis in tow

Are they truthful in their words?
Your brain it analyses
Putting piece and piece together 
A puzzle it disguises 

There's a slip says your mind 
Some evidence of foley 
And a builds a case around their words 
And tells you to be worried 

You look harder for the truth 
Underneath your mind so mirky 
Your brain feels crystal clear 
But their actions could seem quirky

Yu tell yourself to get a grip 
Your friends say what they mean 
But your hypervigilance runs strong 
Your trauma, it runs deep.
