In the song Paranoid by Socialburn, the singer is having an internal battle about the status of his relationship with someone that he cares deeply for. He is lying awake at night, wondering if the other person is doing the same thing. He questions whether his insecurity and doubts are making him paranoid or if there are actual issues in the relationship that he needs to address. He had thought that he had everything figured out, but the recent break-up has left him questioning everything. The singer wonders if he is not good enough for the other person or if they have more important things to do than be with him. He questions his own worth and if he is ever going to feel this way about someone again. Despite his doubts, he still answers the other person's calls and remains available to them.
The lyrics of Paranoid are relatable to anyone who has ever felt unsure about a relationship or has struggled with their own self-worth. The song explores the raw emotions of doubt and insecurity that can arise when someone we care about pulls away from us. Ultimately, the song leaves the listener with the question of whether the singer is truly paranoid or if he has a legitimate reason to be concerned.
