Tarantula (12" Version 1)

[Verse 1]
I'm living but I'm feeling numb
You could see it in my stare
I wear a mask so falsely now
That I don't know who I am
This void that whirls inside me
It's rolling me away
And I've noticed that in other eyes
Time is closing in

[Chorus]
But when the thunder breaks, it breaks for you and me
Tarantula, tarantula
Tarantula, tarantula

[Verse 2]
The future's looking rather grim
In this strange black time
The decisions lie with stupid men
Along with my life
They're choking and they hype at me
Expecting me to fall
But only if I'm threatened
Will the tables turn

[Chorus]
But when the thunder breaks, it breaks for you and me
Tarantula, tarantula
Tarantula, tarantula

[Outro]
My world's under a sentence of death
I was born under clouds
When the pressure gets too much for me I bite
