awesome summary, ballzofsno!

it seems that the character in this song feels that there is something wrong with him. paranoia means having the facts, which indicates to me that he has had someone close to him leave him or ignore him. perhaps this has led to the conclusion that his personality was intimidating or unstable. therefore, he has become distant and protective of his emotions so as not to let the mistake happen again. it seems that he wants to open up to his lover, but he is afraid that she would leave him as well
