anxiety

Anxiety:

Wide awake with all my demons
It’s 3am, I should be sleeping
Let them in to entertain them
Should’ve known that they’d move in

Replaying our last conversation
Second guessing what you meant and
Overanalyze what I said
All because you left me on read

Baby, I should come with a warning
Cause It‘s not easy being with me
Babe, I know it’s always something
I wish I wasn’t like this

Cause If it weren’t for my anxiety
Whispering, “What’s wrong with me?”
Maybe I wouldn’t care so much 
If it weren’t for my anxiety
And how it makes me overthink 
Maybe I wouldn’t be so scared of love 
If it weren’t for my anxiety

I’m in the bathroom, barely thinking
This one came with little reason 
My thoughts scream that “I deserve this”
My mind has turned against itself

Drown out the song that’s triggering this
I know the words from when I used to sing it
Back when I was still keeping secrets
That was when I lost myself

Baby, I should come with a warning
Cause It‘s not easy being with me
Babe, I know it’s always something
I wish I wasn’t like this

Cause If it weren’t for my anxiety
Whispering, “What’s wrong with me?”
Maybe I wouldn’t care so much 
If it weren’t for my anxiety
And how it makes me overthink 
Maybe I wouldn’t be so scared of love 
If it weren’t for my anxiety
