Too Uptight

Once there was a nothing

The voices rang so true

The knowledge that was lacking

Cut innocence in twoEverything seemed too good to be right

When I was 16, I was too uptight

Now disappointment's shadow

Reveals a colder timeA harder kind of living

In disillusion, how can it go?

The fear of the night

Now I am grown, I'm just too uptightA 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 uptightDeath creeps ever closer a darkness falls in me

A scared fragmented loner unholy

A night with no end an echoing sea

I'll think about me how I'm too uptight
