Do you ever feel insecure at times? I do, I feel insecure when I realize that if we're not careful, everything we have and care for can just disappear in a blink of an eye. We always have to watch our moves very carefully, because we fear the consequences.
Last night, something happened to me which made me realize how close I was to losing something I care a lot for. That night gave birth to a series of events depicting confusion, jealousy, and even hatred, involving people that I care for.
I just want to remind people just how easy it is to lose everything, and how sometimes, even our closest friends can make us feel at risk.
Insecurity is the only word I can think of to describe what I felt after witnessing those events. Insecurity...Knowing that you can pass from being loved to being hated, from being a friend to an enemy in no time at all. But it's not just a question of making the right decisions and being careful, because I had the impression that my insecurity had always been there, hiding inside me somewhere, waiting, waiting for the right moment...
Ironically, earlier this week, before any of these troubling events occurred, I was listening to a song which sort of links in to how I felt last night.
Without any more delay, here is “Papercut”...

“Papercut”
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 that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right beneath my skin
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 the face inside is right beneath my skin
I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first
But I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of 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 watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too
Right inside your skin
[x2]
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 the face inside is right beneath my skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin [x3]
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun
I feel the light betray me
The sun
I feel the light betray me
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 the face inside is right beneath my skin
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 I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
