Anxiety

On the surface, everything's just fine But nervous doesn't describe what's going on behind these eyes It's just too easy to fake a smile But you got my heartbeat on repeat Going 'bout a hundred thousand miles My mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Yeah, yeah H-A-T-E Y-O-U And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me You get the best of me I wish I could just let you go But the truth is, you are all I've ever known You're an infection, a medicine just numbs my brain I'm doing anything and everything to feel normal again What's normal again? 'Cause my mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes My mind's racing but I could never out run you Playing games with me that I will always lose, ooh A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Hey, yeah H-A-T-E Y-O-U And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me, nah, nah, nah, no You get the best of me, of me, of me It's crazy, my thoughts start racing And my mind's erasing everything I knew It's just pills and therapy bills Just to keep me away from you And it works for a little while, bullshit smiles But I'm just walking through the motions Either that, or losing track of my emotions 4 a.m. panic attacks Taking red eyes back home I feel by myself but with you, I'm never alone Damn A-N-X-I-E-T-Y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
