panic attack
dream theater
octavarium
music: dream theater
lyrics: john petrucci
all wound up
on the edge
terrified
sleep disturbed
restless mind
petrified
bouts of fear
permeate
all i see
heightening
nervousness
threatens me
i am paralyzed
so afraid to die
caught off guard
warning signs
never show
tension strikes
choking me
worries grow
why do i feel so numb
is it something to do with where i come from
should this be fight or flight
i don't know why i'm constantly so uptight
rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest
agitated body in distress
i feel like i'm in danger
daily life is strangled by my stress
a stifling surge
shooting through all my veins
extreme apprehension
suddenly i'm insane
lost all hope for redemption
a grave situation desperate at best
why do i feel so numb
is it something to do with where i come from
should this be fight or flight
i don't know why i'm constantly reeling
helpless hysteria
a false sense of urgency
trapped in my phobia
possessed by anxiety
run
try to hide
overwhelmed by this complex delirium
helpless hysteria
a false sense of urgency
trapped in my phobia
possessed by anxiety
run
try to hide
overwhelmed by this complex delirium
