I Can't Sleep With You, Anxiety

There's a pain in my chest, an ache in my stomach, 

I feel there is no coming down from this restless panic.

My head is racing, I can't think straight,

My heart is pounding so fast, there's no stops, no breaks.

Am I crazy, maybe, but what choice do I have,

I didn't ask for this happen, it just takes and steels and grabs.

It's a monster with claws, it's out for my blood,

It wants me feeling like I'm drowning in thick, oozing mud. 

I want to run away, I want to scream for help,

But that monster convinces me that alone I must dwell.
