Song Meaning

Stress, panic and anger make up the main themes of this song. The consequences when you feel any one of them is revealed, as well as the nightmare that occurs when all three are combined. It talks of how the narrator finds it difficult to control his anger and how he "get [himself] all wound up" at the slightest prevarication.

Lyrics

I've got a knack for fucking everything up
My temper flies and I get myself all wound up
My fuse is short and my blood pressure is high
I lose control and I get myself all wound up
Tension mounts and I fly off the wall
I self-destruct and I get myself all wound up
Petulance and irritation sets in
I throw a tantrum and I get myself all up
Chip on my shoulder and a leech on my back
Stuck in a rut and I get myself all wound up
Killed my composure and it will never come back
Loss of control and I get myself all wound up
Blown out of proportion again
My temper snaps and I get myself all wound up
Spontaneous combustion
Panic attack
I slipped a gear I get myself all wound up
