Anxiety, what a funny word
Occurd, transferred, its absurd
It's been with me when I didn't know
Existing in the shadows like a crow
A companion who was there years ago
But now it won't leave me alone
With anxiety, there comes fright
A shocking wave of light
But not the good kind,
The one you fight to survive
And try to keep your sanity alive
It can be disguised as a sweet delight
Clinging to you most of the time
Camouflaging with your fears
But it's like a constant comfort near
Don't be fooled by its ability to appear
Sometimes it can be hard to make it disappear

Breathe in
Breathe out

My hands are shaking,
Lips quivering,
And again I'm a prey
Even though I didn't mean it that way
I'm a boiling pot filled to the brim
A single drop more and I'll overflow on a whim

Breathe in
Breathe out

I'm a victim
I'm shy,
I'm sensitive to the sunshine
I wish that was the case,
If only you knew what it takes
To stop my mind from overthinking
Every single Goddamn thing

Breathe in
Breathe out
Breathe in
Breathe out

Head pounding, spinning round and round
My chest and lungs filled with poisoned water
I can't breathe and that's all you are telling me that I need
Just breathe

Breathe in
Breathe out
Breathe in
Breathe out

My vision is blurry, mind cloudy
The panic feels like I'm dying, ...
