I lay down every night And I can't get no rest 'Cause it starts spinning in my brain And then it's pounding in my chest What if I've wasted all my youth? What if I've wasted growing up? What if I wasted my whole life? Oh man, I feel like throwing up
It's an anxiety attack An anxiety attack I've got a bad case of the horrors And at night it comes back
'Cause first I look back at my week And then I look back at my year And then I'm terrified to speak And then I'm paralyzed with fear And I'm tossing and I'm turning And I'm going 'round the bend And all I see are all my failings Downward spirals without end And I see horror in the future And I see horror in the past And it's 4am and 5am, 6am at last
'Cause what if I never feel grown up And die in a car accident? And what if I go crazy And what if this time it's permanent? And what if I go broke And have to move back with my parents? And then what if I get cancer And I ain't got no insurance?
All my days are moving faster And it's making me feel dizzy How come I get nothing done But always feel so busy? And I used to feel so smart You know, I used to feel so strong But this just can't be how to live I must be doing something wrong Because everything I might do Feels like something else I can't And then another day is gone And I just don't know where it went
I try not to hang out too much Try not to watch too much television But still everything I do Just seems to be the wrong decision And I lay down every night But still I can't get no rest 'Cause it starts spinning in my brain And then it's pounding in my chest
It's an anxiety attack An anxiety attack I've got a bad case of the horrors And at night it comes back
