Papercut (Live 2017)

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda, with mgk]

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

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda, mgk]

Like a face that I hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face that 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 thе face inside is herе in me

Right underneath my skin

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & mgk]

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 hearin' within

It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

[Verse 2: mgk,  with Mike Shinoda]

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

[Pre-Chorus: mgk, with Mike Shinoda]

But everybody has a face that they hold inside

A face that awakes when I close my eyes

A face that 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 watchin' you too

Right inside your skin

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & mgk]

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 hearin' within

It's like the face inside is right beneath the 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 hearin' within

It's like the face inside is right

[Interlude: Mike Shinoda & mgk]

The face inside is right beneath your skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda]

The sun goes down

I feel the light betray me

The sun goes down

[Chorus: Mike Shinoda & mgk]

(The sun) 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 hearin' within

It's like the face inside is right beneath the skin (I feel the light betray me)

(The sun) 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 hearin' within

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearin' within (I feel the light betray me)

It's like I can't stop what I'm hearin' within

(It's like) It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
