You were so comforting in my mind
You were the arms that kept me safe
Took away the fears I held inside
I felt so alive in your wake

I find myself running back to you
You’re always there to hold my hand
You were my everlasting muse
‘Cause you were the only one to understand

You’re the only one who understands

Anxiety, oh, anxiety
Won’t you ever let me be?
Anxiety, my sweet anxiety
Don’t wanna face reality

‘Cause if the truth sets me free
Then I’m afraid of what’s in front of me
Oh, anxiety
It’s a tragedy

You were the calm before my storm
You seemed to keep me out of harm’s way
When I worried for a little too long
You met me with an open embrace

I always find myself running back to you
Are we holding on a bit too tight?
Don’t think I can move on without you
Why won’t I say goodbye?

Will I ever say goodbye?

Anxiety, oh, anxiety
Won’t you ever let me be?
Anxiety, my sweet anxiety
Don’t wanna face reality

‘Cause if the truth sets me free
Then I’m afraid of what’s in front of me
Oh, anxiety
It’s a tragedy

If you ever decide to walk away
Then I can’t let you go so easily
But we both know that we can’t let this last

My dear anxiety
You sure are a tragedy
I think I’ve fallen way too deep
Please let me be
