Tankian, Serj - Total Paranoia Lyrics
Stop by your nightmare
on a dark road today
Such a wind through his white hair
Such a grin on his face.
They show and they glisten like they drive me blind
And he... stood there before me
And he... cried out in pain
You think you can ignore me
you think you'll get away
Ready or not
It's like total paranoia
Anything you say
He can twist his way
It's like total paranoia
Anywhere you go
He is sure to know.
He said stop, please and listen
Can we try to be friends?
Why is it always so twisted
but he cried out again
You can't stand to remember
You can't stand to forget
You won't lift a finger
for the storm of regret
Ready or not
It's like total paranoia
you know how to pray but he won't go away
it's really too much it's like total paranoia
close your eyes and he'll be there all night
close your eyes and he'll be there all night
he'll be there all night
he'll be there all night
he'll be there all night
he'll be there all night

Tankian, Serj Total Paranoia Comments
Шикарный голос!
This song is like a metaphor for my anxiety
I’m not paranoid. I’m excited 😜
https://youtu.be/P4c5GDYhT5w
This should be on spotify
No joke this is my ex-wife's ringtone
Tell me what this song is about. I translated it but I still don't understand..
About Paranoia, friend. and really it could describe nearly anything, even the madmen in office.
tankian❤
serj cuando sera el dia que te vea en colombia otra vez 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😣
what kind of planet are you coming from serj because you dont belong here you are the best i miss you a lot.
this needs to be on Spotify 😩
it's on pandora for some reason
It does!
serj this is good but
"Stop by your nightmare
On a dark road today"
More like total ptsd
Anyone know what the woman say at the star/end?
The photo of skeleton Serj is deleted. Would anyone mind giving me a link? :3 I really need it
The female voice at the beginning says:
"There is a new ruler among the gods;
If you hurl harsh words as sharp as swords;
you pay the price with your tongue that talks too high up in the halls of the gods.."
how do you know? all I could hear/decipher was the halls of the gods portion
Mia Garcia listened to it like 20 times 😂
Thank you so much!
I've been wondering for so long
Thank you so much! I've always wondered about that 1st bit of the song.
Full body Chills! Best Song Ever
little pip approves of this propaganda.
hahaha what a coincidece, im playin arkham City, just waiting for some download, come to youtube and find this
Its like Spiders and Mr jack
why this Song isnt in the game??? :(
cuz ppl are RETARDED...
the beginning reminds me a little of benzin (rammstein)
Only the first chord imo
Anyone able to make out what was whispered at the beginning are?
Funization i think it's something "from the house of the gods"
Anybody know what the whispered words are? The ones the girls say at the beginning and a few other times.
awesome
Sounds like a song about domestic violence.
THE JOKER AND SERJ TANKIAN
One of the best songs ever
Haunting. I adore it.
Batman is illuminati
+Adam Robles Robles No he's not, In a justice League episode Question who CLEARLY points out and shows the links of the illuminati (he even has diagrams ffs and after batman says he's wound too tight he then goes on to prove them ALL wrong)- see "Flashpoint - 23" refers the next episode which is the 23rd episode of Justice League Unlimited. The number 23 also has significance to the Illuminati group that Question mentions.
I cannot believe this is a seriously taken discussion.
shut the fuck up you bitch ass christ loving nigga.
He is a form of shadow government
Theory. The song itself is about paranoia (and has nothing to do with the batman games). Any takers?
+Nicholas Miller And in Batman every person is corrupted!!!
@Kelvi Bulku Exactly. That is why this song fits.
I think it just fits a certain Batman villain perfectly... Scarecrow anybody?
It was featured on the Arkham City album, it just happens to fit with the other songs, don't think it was directly written for the game.
@Hawkeye it wasn't directly writen for the game, it was only included on extras. You're right
He is so talented, he knows how to play 14 musical instruments! (including vocals). He is brilliant.
True and he also can do opera soft vocals and scream so he has very good vocal use XD
haaha, It does sound like spiders, Awesome song thou.
the intro has a bit of 'spiders' influence in it. it's awesome!
Kelvi Bulku that's exactly what I thought. a true fan right here
Ryuk Senpai yeah it is spiders just with a different type of tepo or what whatever they call it
the instrumental is almost all spiders influence in my opinion but the lyrics are influenced by mr jack
Spiders is the best song ever
Spiders and Mr.Jack
is this about two-face or hugo strange?
Its about the joker silly.
"such a wind through his white hair." the jokers hair is green and theres even more evidence in the song to suggest otherwise.
@Dark6Matter9Master I am a bit late but this song is for "Prometheus Bound" a rock opera that Serj Tankian wrote.
http://www.serjtankian.com/content/prometheus-bound
The saddest thing is this describes my childhood but i love the song
Heh, the last pic :3
Is this about Joker or Scarecrow...I'm so confused. XD
Where was this song released? Thanks
guitar sounds like DAM, voice like Spiders
Serj does all the work in his songs pretty much
Thank you so much for the upload!
Song is awesome!!!! Love u Serj Tankian!!!
I always thought this song was about Two face. With the "wind through his white hair" and it seems to be it's Harvey half arguing with his "other" half
This reminds me SO much of Joker.
6 years ago you predicted theme from Joker the movie ?
@iliaPayne ?
iliaPayne This was meant to be Batman’s thought’s on how Joker is always in his head and never leaves him. How no matter what he’s suffering with the Joker. In Arkham City, Batman is injected with some of Joker’s sick blood and was slowly shifting his mind. A plot that was completely shown in the sequel Batman: Arkham Knight.
Has anyone figured out what the "choirs" in the background are saying? Besides "ready or not" I mean XD...
I only caught something about "too high up in the house of the gods" (0:11) :P
Spiders?
...Why does this song make me think of Scarecrow?
Cool thanks, there cool.
Vampires On Tomato Juice (S.O.A.D. style)
But imagine if this was a new S.O.A.D song with the rest of the band.
This song is cool, are there bands or artist that kinda sing in this style
zer0blue1 S.O.A.D and Serj Tankain
Amazing! Another master piece! :):)
where in the game can we hear this music???!
Is that Daron playing guitar?
268k* ;)
fantastic voice <3
look up the Ringmaster. he was a villain used in a lot of marvel comics. actually looks quite similar to him
Scarecrow
It feels like it should be Slenderman's Theme song
Only for like a second at the beginning.
I wish I could get a album version of Sounds of War, he performed it amazingly at the forum back in 08.
buena cancion
23 people are paranoid...
It sounds like Spiders
I love when he pronounces "paranoia". :)
this is sooo amazing!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I did not know that Serj did a song for Batman AC and I've love both his music and batman. This has just made my day.
No, it doesn't.
does this song play at all during the game ?
@riency1 The instrumental yeah
250k :)
Anybody knows what does the girl voice say at the end?
I was thinking more along the lines of Dam
ou down, and pressure you into the wrong choices. it always makes me think when i listen to your music, "what would the world be like if i ha dkilled myself" keep up the amazing work
Dear Serj Tankian, during my pregnancy, i was tempted too end my life, and the life of my still unborn child, i listened to your music and it made me realize how wrong i would have been to end myself. your music tells me stories about moving on past those that puty
2:22 serj's trollface XD
because its serj tankian
This is so different from what I usually like. WHY DO I LOVE IT SO MUCH?
Sounds like a mix of "Spiders" and "Mr. Jack". I enjoy it.
It's actually not about any Batman character. It was written for the rock musical Prometheus Bound in 2010. First sung by actor Gavin Creel, it was later recorded by Serj for this game.
oh right lol,,, that would have been cool tho
dont suppose your related to serj are you?
Truly haunting song...
@bfvdkop yeah. this is really fantastic. Listen to this, i really got shocked when i saw my friend bought a new iphone 4S for just $470. i got it from here. you can also try it -> bit.ly/Tubk0A?=bzjemf
2014 SOAD album! YEAH!!
It's about scarecrow.
I belive Hugo Strange.
no its not. the ringtone is a campy themepark tune @SaladinBoss
I actually thought it was about Harvey. Especially the bit where he says "Stop, please listen, can't we try to be friends?"
when dont i think of slenderman when im on youtube...
Absolutely :D
he could be the mad hatter
i ripped off daron and i hope he wont find out
you wont live to figure from the storm of regret
...
Everytime I hear this song I think of Slenderman.....
does anyone know what those women whisper... i love it
No pr0n? xD
Serj should be a villain in a batman game with the mustache and tophat :D
