(Mike Shinoda)

Why does it feel like night today

Something in here's not right today

Why am I so uptight today

Paranoia's all I got left

I don't know what stressed me first

or how the pressure was fed but

I know just what it feels like

To have a voice in the back of my head

Like a face I hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

Face that watches everytime I lie

Face that laughs every time I fall

(And watches everything)

So I know that when it's time to sink or swim

The face inside is here in me right beneath my skin



(Chorus Chester,Mike and Serj)

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back

It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within

It's like a face inside is right beneath my skin



(Serj Tankian)

Points out all my mistakes in me

You got a face the inside too

Your paranoia's probably worse

I don't know what sets me off

but I know what I can stand

Everybody has infact the matter is

I can't add up to what you can

But everybody has a face that they hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face that watches everytime they lie

A face that laughs every time they fall

(And it watches everything)

So it's no doubt when it's time to sink or swim

The face inside is watching you too right inside your skin



(Chorus Chester,Mike and Serj)

It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back

It's like a whirlwind inside of my head

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within

It's like a face inside is right beneath my skin



It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over m
