lyrics

Fear and anxiety controls my breath,
When will I learn how to overcome these tests?
Fear and anxiety controls my breath,
And all I want is to escape this fantasy.

My attempt at escapism continues to delude me,
now all I want is to escape this fantasy.

Will I ever be happy if,
I don't grow into the hero I've dreamt I could be?
I can be more than this.

Fear and anxiety controls my breath,
When will I learn how to overcome these tests?

My words are all I have,
This is all I am, I follow no one else's plan.
Without strength in my character,
I'm a hopeless wreck with no cause to stand for.
I can't live a life, covered by hate and shrouded in lies,
Rather than live a life that's not mine, I'd prefer to die.

Fear and anxiety controls my breath,
When will I learn how to overcome these tests?
Fear and Anxiety controls my breath,
All that's on my mind is what I lack.

We all want to be something special,
whether it's for ourselves or someone else.

All I want to be is a better man,
This heart, this flesh,
to be better than before.
That's all I ask.

I bite my fingernails back until they bleed,
but where I once felt my breath escaping, it stays with me.
I know I'm a work in progress, I know I'm far from perfect,
but at the end of my days, I pray that I'm worth being saved.
