All wound up On the edge Terrified Sleep disturbed Restless mind Petrified Bouts of fear Permeate All I see Heightening Nervousness Theatens me I am paralyzed So afraid to die Caught off guard Warning signs Never show Tension strikes Choking me Worries grow Why do I feel so numb? Has it something to do with where I come from? Should this be fight or flight? I don't know why I'm constantly so uptight Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest Agitated body in distress I feel like I'm in danger Daily life is strangled by my stress A stifling surge shooting through all my veins Extreme apprehension, suddenly I'm insane No strong hope for redemption A grave situation desperate at best Why do I feel so numb? Has it something to do with where I come from? Should this be fight or flight? I don't know why I'm constantly reeling Helpless hysteria A false sense of urgency Trapped in my phobia Possessed by anxiety Run Try to hide Overwhelmed by this complex delirium Helpless hysteria A false sense of urgency Trapped in my phobia Possessed by anxiety Run Try to hide Overwhelmed by this complex delirium
