I don't really know which way to go What I really want to do Can't you see the pain overload behind mine eyes?
Expecting mass perfection So the plan will carry through A gift from above? A curse in disguise? Can't find a soul who'll sympathize
<i>[Chorus:]</i> I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain Try to keep a pace impossible to sustain I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain Well I've got to let the storm strike out of my brain I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain Said "Make no mistakes or it'll all go down the drain" I'm a genius in pain, I'm a genius in pain Said "Give me enough time and I'll go insane"
Ad Hoc, Ad Loc, Quid Pro Quo So little time, so much to know All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy The fuses blow
Expecting mass obedience So my life will go as planned Is it my friend? Is it my foe? Too many directions that I can go
<i>[Chorus]</i>
When I snap, my springs unwind Will I take it out on you? Can't you see the danger signs behind mine eyes?
Expecting mass destruction If it doesn't go my way Doesn't matter to me who lives or dies Never, No, never will I compromise!
<i>[Chorus]</i>
Genius! - In pain! Genius! - In pain! Genius! - In pain! Genius! - In pain! In pain! In pain! In pain!
