Anxiety
Anna Clendening
[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
My mind's racing, but I can never out run you
You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes

[Chorus]
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
Yeah, yeah, I 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

[Verse 2]
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?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause my mind's racing, but I can never out run you
You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes
My mind's racing, but I can never out run you
Playing games with me that I will always lose, ooh

[Chorus]
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
Hey, yeah, I H-A-T-E Y-O-U
And all the stupid things you do
I give in so easily (You get, you get the best of me)
You get the best of me, no
You get the best of me, of me, of me

[Bridge]
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 AM panic attacks, taking red eyes back home
I feel by myself, but with you, I'm never alone
Damn
[Outro]
A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
