Panic Room

A heart that beats too fast concedes before it's time
I can't assess the threat if I don't open up my eyes
Barricade myself behind the walls
It's much too dangerous to go outside at all

I flip the switch as a cold sweat breaks in
Pound the alarm
I'm frozen stiff as the shadow is creeping
So lock 'em out

Inside the panic room
Fear is all I feel
It's all too real
Inside the panic room
I am concealed
Forever sealed
Inside this tomb

Afraid of the unknown
Am I preoccupied
A story left untold as I am paralyzed
Am I hearing things
Are there voices in my head
Anxious thoughts just spin round and round again

I flip the switch as a cold sweat breaks in
Pound the alarm
I'm frozen stiff as the shadow is creeping
So lock 'em out

Inside the panic room
Fear is all I feel
It's all too real
Inside the panic room
I am concealed
Forever sealed
Inside this tomb

There's no way in
No way out
So why do I sit upon these pins and needles now
All in a panic room

I always see the end
Before I ever play the game
Jumping to conclusions
My mind is always made

I flip the switch as a cold sweat breaks in
Pound the alarm
I'm frozen stiff as the shadow is creeping
So lock 'em out

Inside the panic room
Fear is all I feel
It's all too real
Inside the panic room
I am concealed
Forever sealed
Inside this tomb

There's no way in
No way out
So why do I sit upon these pins and needles now
All in the panic room

No way in
No way out
Inside the panic room

No way in
No way out
Ah, in the panic room
