My fear is so great
Choking me like a weight
My heart pounds in my chest
I'm barely getting any rest

My thoughts make me so anxious
I'm so on edge, I'm vicious
My stomach churns with dread
I'm stuck in this mess in my head

It's hard to function when I'm so terrified
As if I'm paralysed,
My vision blurs as my breathing speeds
In my head, the eternal war I lead

It's a battle I can't win
Leaving me in this never-ending spin
I start to shake, and I can't move
Not sure I'll ever be free of this gloom
