Verse 1:
Chest feels heavy like it’s caving in
(Burning lungs, can’t breathe, can’t win)
Thoughts race faster than I can speak
Sweaty palms, trembling knees so weak
Jaw clenched tight till it aches and cracks
Nervous laughter hiding panic attacks
Heart pounding hard like a broken drum
Thoughts get louder, I feel so numb
Pre-Chorus:
Eyes darting, can’t focus, can’t stay still
Every room’s closing in, bent to my will
Overthinking everything, drowning in doubt
Searching for calm but I can’t find a way out
Chorus:
Anxiety, it’s tearing me apart
Shaking my hands and clawing my heart
Anxiety, it’s burning through my veins
Turning my thoughts into tangled chains
Verse 2:
Sweat beads cold like a fever dream
Muscles locked tight, wanna break and scream
Head’s too full, every thought’s too loud
Crumbling under the weight of the crowd
Pacing the floor just to feel control
Nails dug deep till they break the soul
Breathing in fragments, shallow and sharp
Lost in a maze that I can’t chart
Pre-Chorus:
Nausea twisting my stomach in knots
Paranoia tangled in endless thoughts
Pins and needles crawling up my skin
Like fighting a war I can never win
Chorus:
Anxiety, it’s tearing me apart
Shaking my hands and clawing my heart
Anxiety, it’s burning through my veins
Turning my thoughts into tangled chains
Bridge:
Hands trembling, chest tight, eyes blurred
Mind racing fast but my speech slurred
Fidgeting fingers, restless feet
Every heartbeat feels like defeat
Ohhh… Ohhh…
(Suffocating, hyperventilating)
Ohhh… Ohhh…
(Every thought escalating)
Breakdown (Long “Ohhhh” and “Ahhhh”):
Ohhhhhhhhhh… (Strained, haunting)
Ahhhhhhhhhh… (Desperate, echoing)
Final Chorus:
Anxiety, it’s tearing me apart
Shaking my hands and clawing my heart
Anxiety, it’s burning through my veins
Turning my thoughts into tangled chains
Outro:
Heart beats fast, can’t catch my breath
(Like poison crawling under my skin)
Mind’s on fire, tangled and stressed
(Feels like drowning but never giving in)
