Anxiety
It boils inside of me
It tells me who who to be
And shows me things I don’t want to see
I can’t remember the last time I hadnt had to think twice
'Cause if anxiety was a cat we’d be the mice
It Rules us
It schools us
It becomes me
Making my life like an eternal horror movie
I won’t get a break
My sanity’s at stake
Cause every bit of sleep it will take

Sing me to sleep
So my breath can be easy on my chest
Sing me to sleep
So my anxious mind can rest
Sing me to sleep
Cause my dreams haven’t been to best

I’m sick of the feeling
It sends my anger reeling
I'm done playing cat and mouse
I wanna feel safe in my goddamn house
But under it's foot i'm a twig
Snap
So I jump at the lightest tap
I just need a break
My sanity isn’t at stake
No more of my sleep shall it take

Cause are all words my anxiety would make

Sing me to sleep
So my breath can be easy on my chest
Sing me to sleep
So my anxious mind can rest
Sing me to sleep
Cause my dreams haven’t been the best

Anxiety
Be easy on my chest
Anxiety
Let my mind rest
Anxiety
May my dreams be the best?
Anxiety
Sing me to sleep

Just been thinking about anxiety alot. I believe alot of people can reaize my big inspiration for writing this is my personal experience with anxiety and the kind of tune is inspired by Twenty One Pilots songs, such as, 'Forest' and 'Guns for Hands'. Hope you guys like it.
