Panic Lyrics

you know you ain't goin' nowhere
you're stuck inside while the mind is flying
you said you'd help me in the morning
twisting on pins into my eyes and
driving on the ceiling below you
facing up the walls with your crooked hands
while you're miles away, miles away, miles away

i didn't think it'd all end up like this
there's spiders on the wall and they stink of piss
dead heads lying in the corner
staring at me making me feel <b>bad</b>
i put my hands up to my eyes but the holes in my palms help me find a way to corner you, corner you, corner you
i can't feel my chest cause it ain't much
sucking through my skin into my <b>brain</b>
oxygen pushing on the window
cracks in the glass let it slip away
i start to cry and i keep on laughing
i close my eyes at what's left inside
and then i ran away, ran away, ran away

for all the time in this land
for all the time in my hands
slip around, in death found
calmness fall once again
once again

razor blades floating in the warm bath
air bubbles in your veins turning my hands black
whispers coming from the next room
window cleaner keeps on <b>spying</b>
i put my hands up to my eyes but the <b>holes</b> in my <b>palms</b> let me find a way to corner me, corner me, corner me

twelve ton hammer for my breakfast
slipping of the edge in catatonic blood
multiple decibel inscriptions
trying all they can in miles an hour
all face grey and looming downwards
sniffing <b>all the time</b> for an ounce of silence
screaming all the way, all the way, all the way

numbers counting down inside me
solar system thoughts circle round my <b>head</b>
false teeth hanging from the ceiling
feet looking of the goms of the second son
i eat my hands 'cos my legs are crying
you <b>broke</b> my neck 'cos i snapped my spine
i wish you'd die away, die away, die away

for all the time in this land
for all the time in my hands
circle round in depth found
calmness fall once again
once again

This is a cool song. ...does anyone else notice that maybe the first part kind of resembles a spider and a fly?

A more extreme/paranoid definition to the word "Panic". Pretty nice song indeed.

Verse nº14th is "I can feel my chest pressing inwards"

Cover art for Panic lyrics by Anathema

Fucking great song! For me this song talks about how you feel under a panic attack. Been there, and I really feel this song describes how it all gets messed up in your head while in that state.

For example the first line: "you know you ain't goin' nowhere you're stuck inside while the mind is flying"

You know you can't get out of your room because you're totally paranoid, afraid and whatnot...but the thoughts in your mind is flying all around...you think about everything and it all makes you scared to death.

Song Meaning

totally agree with you. I begin to realize that "a fine day to exit" album is just a one song that was splitted on parts.. a full history

Cover art for Panic lyrics by Anathema

continuing the album line... In this one the main character lost his mind.. the paranoia, the panic take his mind away...

My Interpretation
