Dear Anxiety
Battling Shadows: Confronting Inner Demons in 'Dear Anxiety'
Lyrics
Get your makeup early morning
Preparing for the day by applying makeup early in the morning
Put on my best shoes
Choosing the best shoes for the day
Gotta walk straight talk politely
Emphasizing the need to walk straight, talk politely, and avoid being too loud
And never be too loud
Advising to maintain a composed demeanor and not draw unnecessary attention
Just another lost one drowning in a crowd
Expressing a sense of being lost and overwhelmed in a crowded environment
Reflections in a window
Noticing one's reflection in a window and questioning the appearance of sadness
Why do I look so sad
Questioning the reason for feeling sad while looking at the reflection
Sirens in the distance
Acknowledging distant sirens, possibly symbolizing trouble or danger
How did it get so bad
Reflecting on how the situation has escalated to a point of concern
Just another lost one drowning in a crowd
Reiterating the feeling of being lost in a crowd
There's' a feeling and I've been running scared
Acknowledging a persistent feeling of fear and avoidance
There's a darkness that never disappears
Recognizing an enduring darkness or negativity
There's a monster been hiding by my bed
Referring to a hidden monster, possibly representing inner struggles
But every time I look there's no monster under there
Realizing that upon closer inspection, the perceived threat is not present
My head is spinning circles
Describing a mental state with thoughts swirling in circles
That's running through my mind
Highlighting the overwhelming nature of dreams and aspirations
All these dreams and aspirations
Expressing disappointment as dreams come crashing down
They all comes crashing down
Reiterating the sense of being lost in a crowd amid shattered aspirations
Another lost one drowning in a crowd
Emphasizing the persistence of fear and avoidance in the face of challenges
There's' a feeling and I've been running scared
Revisiting the theme of running away from an unsettling feeling
There's a darkness that never disappears
Acknowledging an enduring darkness that doesn't fade away
There's a monster been hiding by my bed
Referring again to a hidden monster, symbolizing inner struggles
But every time I look there's no monster under there
Realizing the absence of the perceived threat upon closer examination
Dear anxiety please just let me go
Pleading with anxiety to release its grip
Dear anxiety I'm breathing as I falling
Expressing a struggle to breathe while confronting anxiety
And I'm so so tired of it all, of it all
Conveying exhaustion and weariness with the ongoing challenges
There's' a feeling and I've been running scared
Reiterating the theme of running away from a persistent feeling of fear
There's a darkness that never disappears
Acknowledging a lingering darkness that doesn't dissipate
There's a monster been hiding by my bed
Referring again to a hidden monster, representing inner struggles
But every time I look there's no monster under there
Realizing that upon closer examination, the perceived threat is absent
Cause it's all inside my head
Recognizing that the challenges and fears exist within the mind
