Sorry this is long. It's worth reading. I promise you.
I'm SURE this is it. Sleep paralysis. You guys have suggested insanity/panic attack. Sleep paralysis is when the mind is half asleep and half awake. You can see all the dream image but you are still awake. Here, I'll explain my view of the lyrics-
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (What's wrong with me?)
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (Why do I feel like this?)
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum (I'm going crazy now)
Bum bum be-dum bum bum be-dum bum
No more gas in the rig
Can't even get it started(You can't move at all in sleep paralysis, SP from now on. Your body is completely paralyzed.)
Nothing heard, nothing said
Can't even speak about it(Because you can't move in SP you can't speak. Your mind may also block out noises so you don't hear any 'real' sounds.)
All my life on my head
Don't want to think about it
Feels like I'm going insane(After SP you feel crazy and whatnot, wondering why all this happened.)
Yeah
It's a thief in the night
To come and grab you(This is what got me. Most people report a presence in the room. It's mostly evil. To some people it's the grim reaper or devils, to others it's thieves/rapists/murderers)
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
It's too close for comfort(It's really creepy. And I mean REALLY F**&EN CREEPY)
Throw on your break lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice(You can hallucinate during it, hence, city of wonder.)
Watch out, you might just go under(I might just be thinking too literally here, but some people also report feeling like they're being pulled under their bed.)
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must faulter be wise
Your mind is in disturbia(AKA, SP :P)
It's like the darkness is the light(you may hallucinate as if it was light)
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight(and she scared the s#*t outta me.)
Your mind is in disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia
Faded pictures on the wall
It's like they talkin' to me(Every time I went into SP there where 'faded' pictures on every surface.)
Disconnectin' your call
Your phone don't even ring
I gotta get out
Or figure this shit out(If it happens to you trust you WILL want out.)
It's too close for comfort
Release me from this curse
I'm trying to remain tame
But I'm struggling(SP is often described as though something has put a curse on you so you can't move. Waiting through it doing nothing is how to get through it, though every time it has happened to me I ended up struggling like all hell to get out)
The first time I heard this song was on the same day I had another bout of SP. I was staying up listening to music cus I was scared to go to sleep. It really did scare the living cr#p outta me. Enough to make an account here just to post this. I'm not gonna sleep tonight :P
