Paranoid
Nevertel Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nightmare, I feel you, in every dream, I try to take it away, put it gets in between.
The rising tension, brought by all my misconception, my life has no direction, but you're, the worst.
I've got, to take, from this, I've got, to break, from this (this), so rest assure.
I'll make this, a little more, easier to swallow, oops I think, you're hollow.

I can't avoid, the way you keep me, paranoid, you hold a grudge, forget it (forget it) and let it down.
(You're so) broken, you're so, hopeless, you're so, broken, you're so, empty inside.

It's so rare, the nights that, I sleep in peace, it try's to rob me, with silent strives and plans to cease.
No raging tension, brought by all you're misconception, you're life has no direction.
Now claim, you're worth, you're blades, will wreak of this, what you could, never fix (fix).
So rest assure, I'll make this, a little more, harder to swallow, it's your time to follow.

I can't avoid, the way you keep me, paranoid, you hold a grudge, forget it (forget it) and let it down.
(You're so) broken, you're so, hopeless, you're so, broken, you're so, empty inside.

Tell me what's a coward like, no time, when there's nowhere left to hide, can't hide.
I tried, to make things right, but you, always had to fight!
Did you think, I wouldn't mind, no time, when you tore me, up inside, can't hide.
I'll fight the pain, when it's driving me insane!

I can't avoid, the way you keep me, paranoid, you hold a grudge, forget it (forget it) and let it down.
(You're so) broken, you're so, hopeless, you're so, broken, you're so, empty inside.

You're terrified, hollow inside.
You're terrified, nowhere you can hide.

Overall Meaning

The song "Paranoid" by Nevertel seems to be about someone who is consumed by their own fears and anxieties. The lyrics depict a person who is constantly struggling with negative thoughts and feelings that weigh them down and affect their ability to live their life to the fullest. The person acknowledges that they feel the grip of their own paranoia in each dream they have, but they cannot escape it as it gets in the way. The tension they experience is caused by their own misconceptions about themselves and their circumstances, leading to a lack of direction in their life. The person then turns their attention to someone else, who they believe is worse off than they are, and claims that they need to break free from this individual's influence.

However, the song seems to end with the realization that the person's true enemy is themselves. They may have tried to make things right, but they are always fighting with their own thoughts and feelings. In the end, they are left feeling empty and unable to escape their own terror, which will continue to haunt them wherever they go.
