Roky Erickson
Reverberation (Doubt)
Well, you finally find your helpless mind
Is trapped inside your skin
You want to leave
But you believe you won't get back again

You only know
You have to go but still you can't get out
You try and try
You die and die
You're stopped by your own doubt

Reverberation
Reverberation

You find no peace
It doesn't cease
It's deadly irritation
It keeps you blind
It's there behind
Your every hesitation

It holds your thought
Your mind is caught
Your fixed with fascination
You think you'll die
It's just a lie
It's backward elevation!
Reverberation
Reverberation

You see reverberation
In your latest incarnation
You think it's a sensation
But it's just reverberation

You start to serve
The downward curve
That catches up your fears
Each thing you do
Comes home to you
And pounds inside your ears

Your start to fight against the night
That screams inside your mind
When something black it answers back
And grabs you from behind!

Reverberation
(Echoing through your brain.)
Reverberation
(Driving your mind insane.)
Reverberation
(Causing your blood to drain, Leaving just charred remains.)
