Lose Your Cool

I was watching TV

And I'm reminded of something from way back when

And it makes me feel guilty

And then I'm distracted all over again

By something on the TV

And I forget what I remembered

And now I'm absently watching

But I'm still feeling guilty

Like a little old dog

Whining about something that they can't see

But I can't tell what's wrong

Just that something's not working inside of me

And now the show is over

But the episode is still far from done

It's a marathon weekend

And I'm just cuing up another rerun

Anticipated this my whole life when the

Stress becomes me

We all know it's just a matter of time before the

Stress becomes me

And now it's here and now I'm doin' it, doin' it

Stress become me

My therapist says that I am not my emotions

Stress becomes me

Stress becomes me

I know I should go outside

I know I should be meditating or phoning a friend

Or just eating right

Not watching my progress unravel again

It's just day by day

Watching the gains that I've made get stripped away

Until there's nothing but me

All alone with my own anxieties

Anticipated this my whole life when the

Stress becomes me

We all know it's just a matter of time before the

Stress becomes me

And now it's here and now I'm doin' it, doin' it

Stress become me

My therapist says that I am not my emotions

Stress becomes me

Stress becomes me

Like a helpless little dog

Whining on about something they can't see

Anticipated this my whole life when the

Stress becomes me

We all know it's just a matter of time before the

Stress becomes me

My therapist says that I am not my emotions

Stress becomes me

Stress becomes me

Stress becomes me

Stress becomes me
