I think I'm paranoid
Garbage · Version 2.0
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
And 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 (verse x2)
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
I think I'm paranoid
Garbage's "I think I'm paranoid" stands as a defining track from their 1998 album Version 2.0, exemplifying the band's signature blend of alternative rock and electronic textures. The song features the distinctive vocal interplay between Shirley Manson and Butch Vig, showcasing the group's ability to merge emotional intensity with polished production. Released during the height of their commercial success, the recording captures the band's evolution from their earlier indie roots into a more mainstream sound while retaining their unique atmospheric edge. It remains a staple of their discography, often cited as a key example of late 90s alternative rock that prioritized mood and sonic innovation over traditional song structures.
