Possessed Album Version by Suicidal Tendencies Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I go down the street
The people watch me shiver and shake
I'm a prisoner of a demon
I think my head's about to break
It stays with me wherever I go
I can't break away from its hold
This must be my punishment
For selling my soul
[Chorus]
Too much pressure, my pulse is rising
My heart is pounding, my head really hurts
I can't take it, all this pressure
From all these things inside of me
Everywhere I look, I see them
Everywhere I go, they're at
What did I do to dеserve this?
Why won't they just lеave my body?
[Verse 2]
Are they people, or are they spirits?
Do they belong to the human race?
Why do they want me so bad?
Why won't they come out of their hiding place?
I can't see them, but I know they're here
I can feel it in my veins
All this pressure on my body
Is causing all my strength to drain
[Chorus]
Too much pressure, my pulse is rising
My heart is pounding, my head really hurts
I can't take it, all this pressure
From all these things inside of me
Everywhere I look, I see them
Everywhere I go, they're at
What did I do to deserve this?
Why won't they just leave my body?
[Verse 3]
Am I crazy, or am I insane?
Have I already lost my mind?
Is it real, or is it fake?
Or am I in a permanent bind?
Am I in power, or am I a slave?
Who the hell is in control?
Am I still living, or am I dead?
Do I still have a soul?
[Chorus]
Too much pressure, my pulse is rising
My heart is pounding, my head really hurts
I can't take it, all this pressure
From all these things inside of me
Everywhere I look, I see them
Everywhere I go, they're at
What did I do to deserve this?
Why won't they just leave my body?
[Verse 4]
I know I can't keep going this way
I have to give my mind some leisure
If I keep on going like this
I never again will taste pleasure
If they will not break the oath
I will have to disband
I have lost all control
This thing has now taken command
[Bridge]
Possessed!
Possessed!
Possessed!
Possessed!
