Lyrics
The pain the pain the pain is getting sharper
The intensity of emotional or physical pain is increasing.
My brain my brain the tunnel's getting darker

The world keeps spinning faster all the time my mind!

The fire in my temples turns me blind inside

I hear I hear

My heartbeat's rising higher (so loud)
