Apropos of nothing

[kjpepper]

Whats wrong with me?
Why do I feel like this?
I'm going crazy now

No more gas in the rig (Can't even get it started)
Nothing heard, nothing said (Can't even speak about it)
I'm a light on my head (Don't want to think about it)
Feels like I'm going insane

It's a thief in the night
To come and grab you
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
It's too close for comfort

put on your green lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter be wise

Your mind is in Disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
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)
Disconnecting on call (The phone don't even ring)
I gotta get out
Or figure this shit out
It's too close for comfort

It's a thief in the night
To come and grab you
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
I feel like a monster

Put on your green lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter be wise

Your mind is in Disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
Your mind is in Disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia

Release me from this curse I'm in
I'm trying to remain tame
But I'm struggling
If you can't go, go, go
I think I'm going to oh, oh, oh

Put on your green lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter be wise

Your mind is in Disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
Your mind is in Disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia

If you ignore the "breakaway pop hit"-ness of the song and just concentrate on the lyrics... yikes. It's a fairly good approximation of what being trapped in my head has been like past few months. That said, I'm a bit abashed to admit that I have been listening to it not exactly on loop, but pretty damn often. It's catchy and danceable. ( "Also cute and fluffy!") What I find alarming is that for the first time in forever, an album currently on the charts has met my 3 song requirement for purchase. O_o. Do you people realize how long it's been since I purchased actual CDs based on something currently playing on the radio?? Disturbia indeed.

ETA: Wow, the video for this song is creepy as hell. It's like if the videos for "Closer", "Lightning Crashes"and "Thriller" had a freaky love child. Probably not the healthiest thing to watch before the morning coffee.

it's truly a catchy song... it's gotten hold of my best friend josh.. I had to break down and make him icons from the music video to get it out of my head..

With maybe some MM "mObscene" thrown in.
