"Panic Prone" sits sixth on This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In), Chevelle's third album, from 2004, and it became the record's third and final single. Pete, Joe and Sam Loeffler wrote it, with Pete handling the lyrics, and Michael Baskette produced.
Even drummer Sam Loeffler admitted he only found out what it was about well after the fact: Pete had been watching one of those Save the Children appeals on TV, and the song asks whether you stay on the couch and watch or get up and do something, without telling you which. Sam also reckoned a line, maybe the opening one, was about a friend who fell off the wagon. It reached number 26 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
