lyrics

I wish the world wasn’t so awful
I wish that people didn’t suck
I’m always worried about everything
I wish that things would start looking up

My thoughts are always driving me crazy
I’m scared that things might get worse
I’m always worried about everything
Sometimes I think that I’m just cursed

My anxiety is dragging me down
I just want to feel safe and sound
But my anxiety is giving me a nervous breakdown

I don’t want to see the doctor
The doctor might tell me I’m sick
He told me I should try some hippie stuff
But it didn’t seem to stick

I don’t want to call my mother
My mother always tells me I’m wrong
She thinks she’s right about everything
She tells me to be big and strong

My anxiety is dragging me down
I just want to feel safe and sound
But my anxiety is giving me a nervous breakdown

I stay away from everyone
I stay inside and I don’t have fun
Because I’m up my ears in unfounded fears
And I seem to find more year after year after year after year

My anxiety is dragging me down
I just want to feel safe and sound
But my anxiety is giving me a nervous breakdown
