Worst Case Scenarios Lyrics by Set It Off
I can see it
Am I clairvoyant?
Or just consumed by my paranoia?
If I see that space, I fill those blanks
With thoughts that scream in the back of my brain
A homemade hell I built myself
Where I am always asking
What, what more can I do
To fix these future wounds?
I keep running, running
I just keep running, running
Out of ways to keep me safe
From self-inflicted pain
And though I’d like to go
I can’t escape worst-case scenarios
Eccentric secrets, they lie about me
And I believe them, they’re so convincing
So I tip-toe by my own landmines
Ignore the signs that it’s all in my mind
It’s self-defense at my expense
I pretend I know the ending
Repeatin’ every step, definition of insane
I’m tryna get a grip while I’m falling in the grave
What, what more can I do
To fix these future wounds?
I keep running, running
I just keep running, running
Out of ways to keep me safe
From self-inflicted pain
And though I’d like to go
I can’t escape worst-case scenarios
Someone save me now, just save me now
This man behind the curtain won’t let me out
Just save me now, please save me now
When the mental flood gates open
I always find a way to drown
I always find a way to drown (Drown, drown, drown)
What (What), what more can I do (What can I do?)
To fix these future wounds? (Future wounds)
I keep running, running (I keep running)
I just keep running, running
Out (Out) of ways to keep me safe (To keep me safe)
From self-inflicted pain
And though (Pain) I’d like to go (I’d like to go)
I can’t escape worst-case scenarios (Worst-case, worst-case, worst-case, worst-case)
So I abandon hope
Worst-case scenarios will never let me go
