Lyrics The Offspring

The Offspring

Gotta Get Away

1. I'm getting edgy all the time,

Someone around me just a step behind,

It's kinda scary, the shape I'm in,

The walls are shakin' and they're closing in,

Too fast or a bit too slow,

I'm paranoid of people and it's starting to show,

There's one guy that I can't shake,

Over my shoulder is a big mistake.

R: Sitting on the bed,

Or lying wide awake,

There's demons in my head,

And it's more than I can take,

I think I'm on a roll,

But I think it's kinda weak,

Saying all I know is,

I gotta get away from me.

2. I tell you something just ain't right,

My head is on loose but my shoes are tight,

Avoiding my friends cause they all bug,

Life is a riddle and I'm really stumped,

If you reason, don't you know,

Your own preoccupation is where you'll go,

I think I'm being followed, I look around,

It's only my shadow creepin' on the ground.
