Suddenly the things ain't what they used to be
Now everything's changed and I wonder why
Too scared to face the possibilities
My life's so different I wanna close my eyes

Can't get rid of the gnawing fear inside me
Denying it all is just the real insanity

[chorus:]
I try to run, I try to flee
...but you can't run from reality
I try to run, to run away
...no use to call 999

It's been my self-protection but now I've got the prove
So far I've been to blind to accept the fucking truth
Well now I've come to see which way the cat jumps
And that's the reason why it's getting out of hand

Can't get it out, this gnawing fear inside me
Denying it all is just sheer insecurity

Suddenly hte things ain't what they used to be
The lie I've been living is catching up with me
Yeah I quit my job cos I wanna be free
But what a living do I get without a pay
...no way

Repressed them all, these bothering things that annoyed me
It ain't nothing new to turn your back on reality
