Why does it feel like night today? 
 Something in here's not right today.
 Why am I so uptight today?
 Paranoia's all I got left 
 I don't know what stressed me first
 Or how the pressure was fed 
 But I know just what it feels like
 To have a voice in the back of my head
 It's like a face that I hold inside
 A face that awakes when I close my eyes
 A face watches every time I lie
 A face that laughs every time I fall
 (And watches everything)
 So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
 That the face inside is hearing me
 Right underneath my skin

 It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
 It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
 It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
 It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

 I know I've got a face in me
 Points out all my mistakes to me
 You've got a face on the inside too and
 Your paranoia's probably worse
 I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
 Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
 I can't add up to what you can but
 Everybody has a face that they hold inside
 A face that awakes when I close my eyes
 A face watches every time they lie
 A face that laughs every time they fall
 (And watches everything)
 So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
 That the face inside is watching you too 
 Right inside your skin

 Chorus
 The face inside is right beneath your skin (3x)
 The sun goes down
 I feel the light betray me (Repeat until end)

 Chorus (Repeat until end)
