"When I was writing Progress, I wanted to capture the feeling of the panic attacks I had been experiencing, try to to explain what happens."

Lyrics, I have a recurring dream, it happens when I'm not sleeping, Turns into a nightmare, I don't know if its real. Rips me from the now, leaves my soul to rust, Everyhing thats sacred, taken from me.

Through the pain I break the surface, I can feel the world returning.

Yes, there's panic in my blood, 'cos I'm trying to find a meaning where there isn't one. Yes, there's panic in my blood, 'cos I'm clinging to the feeling's as I come undone.

So I get up off my knees, struggle to my feet, For the thing that I call progress they say that I'm making.

Through the pain I break the surface, I can feel the world returning.

Yes, there's panic in my blood, 'cos I'm trying to find a meaning where there isn't one.

I'm doomed to repeat a moment of my life, that keeps me awake each night. I'll never escape the nightmare, get away from the pain from the night that I died.

Yes, there's panic in my blood, 'cos I'm trying to find a meaning where there isn't one. Yes, there's panic in my blood, 'cos I'm clinging to the feeling's as I come undone.

Yes, I'm just trying to find a meaning, I'm just trying to find a meaning. Yes, I'm just trying to find a meaning, I'm just trying to find a meaning. Yes, I'm just trying to find a meaning, I'm just trying to find a meaning.
