Lyrics

I'm living but I'm feeling numb
Can see it in my stare
I wear a mask so falsely now
And I don't know who I am
This void, the world's inside of me
And they won't let me away
I've noticed in other eyes
Time's closing in
But when the thunder breaks, it breaks for you and me
Tarantula, tarantula, tarantula, tarantula
The future's looking rather grim
Strange black tide
Decisions lie with stupid men
Along with my life
They're choking and they're hyping me
Expecting me to fall
But only if I'm threatened
Will the tables turn
But when the thunder breaks, it breaks for you and me
Tarantula, tarantula, tarantula, tarantula
My world is under a sentence of death
I was born under clouds
But when the pressure gets too much for me
I bite
But when the thunder breaks, it breaks for you and me
Tarantula, tarantula, tarantula, tarantula
