I Think Im Paranoid

Garbage · Other Songs - Garbage

You can look but you can't touch
I don't think I like you much
Heaven knows what a girl can do
Heaven knows what you've got to prove

I think I'm paranoid and complicated
I think I'm paranoid, manipulate it

Bend me break me
Anyway You need me
All I want is you
Bend me break me
Breaking down is easy
All I want is you

I fall down just to give you a thrill
Prop me up with another pill
If I should fail, if I should fold
I nailed my faith to the sticking pole

I think I'm paranoid, manipulate it
I think I'm paranoid, too complicated
Bend me break me
Anyway you need me
All I want is you
Bend me break me
Breaking down is easy
All I want is you

I think I'm paranoid
I think I'm paranoid

Bend me break me
Anyway you need me
All I want is you
Bend me break me
Breaking down is easy
All I want is you

Steal me, deal me, anyway you heal me
Maim me, tame me, you can never change me
Love me, like me, come ahead and fight me
Please me, tease me, go ahead and leave me

Bend me break me
Anyway you need me
As long as I want you baby it's alright
Bend me break me
Anyway you need me
As long as I want you baby it's alright

I Think Im Paranoid

Garbage's 'I Think Im Paranoid' stands as a defining track from the band's 1995 debut album, 'Garbage.' The song exemplifies the group's signature blend of alternative rock and electronic dance music, characterized by Shirley Manson's emotive vocals and the band's signature synthesizer-driven sound. Released during the height of the 90s alternative scene, the recording captures the raw energy and atmospheric tension that propelled Garbage to international prominence. As a cornerstone of their early discography, the track remains a staple of their catalog, reflecting the era's shift toward integrating industrial and pop elements with a distinct, often unsettling, aesthetic. Its enduring presence in their live performances and compilations underscores its status as a key work in the band's evolution from their initial experimental phase to their mainstream breakthrough.
