Once there was a nothing
The voices rang so [bad word] The knowledge that was lacking
Cut innocence in two

Everything seemed too good to be right
When I was 16, I was too uptight

Now disappointment's shadow
Reveals a colder time
harder kind of living
In disillusion
How can it go?
The fear of the night
Now I am grown, I'm just too uptight

slow and noble breakdown of personality
Careless, heartless, soulless, no dignity
My days are flown and I can't recall
Feeling so alone was I so uptight

Death creeps ever closer
darkness falls in me
scared fragmented loner
Unholy
night with no end an echoing sea
I'll think about me
How I'm too uptight
