about
This song is about my constant uphill battle with anxiety and how sometimes, even if only for a short period of time, I overcome it. This goes to show that you too can do the same.
lyrics
Verse I
Can’t seem to catch a break
And I do not want to quit,
Say I’ll smoke just one more cigarette,
Just one more pack, I swear that’s it,
My mind wont be quiet,
No it wont leave me alone,
Sometimes I just want to be up all night,
With you on the telephone,
Even though,
Not many words will be said,
But that’s ok, we prefer the silence,
Unlike my sub concious thoughts,
They’re always finding nonsense,
Chorus
So I, close my eyes, then ask myself “ what the hell am I’m thinking?”
Tell myself it’s just a game, dodge a bullet, stop the drinking,
While the rezon in my lungs keeps my head from over heating,
I know that in the long run I’ll be ok as long my heart is beating,
For you,
Verse II
Anxiety, Anxiety, why must you complicate things,
Telling me it’s ok to think insanely overwhelming feelings,
Shut up, shut up, shut up in there cant you tell that I am happy,
For once now in my life I am done feeling so fucking crappy,
Chorus
So I, accept it all as it is, and start a new beggining,
You must first accept yourself before you can fully start the healing.
While the rezon in my lungs keeps my head from over thinking,
It can only prolong the inevitable before it starts repeating,
Bridge
Close my eyes,
I see you,
Breath real deep,
Your love is so true,
You heal me,
Like love’s supposed to do,
I thank god every day for meeting you,
Verse III
Anxiety, anxiety, welcome to the party,
I’m thankful that you came, after all you are a part of me,
This here is love, it’s so great to introduce you two,
Thanks to love I’ve finally accepted every single part of you
