They say anxiety can't **** you,
And though I know it's true,
It doesn't make it hurt any less,
Watching the you get stripped from you,

You want to say how you're feeling,
But the words just won't come out,
Even when you know you're right,
You're filled with constant doubt,

You feel like a singer with no voice,
Lost your purpose, lost your soul,
Like a shattered glass in a million pieces,
Afraid you'll never again feel whole,

All you want is the pain to stop,
Because you're so tired of feeling alone,
So you allow yourself to slowly sink,
Because you can't swim on your own,

You feel like no one will understand,
Even if you told them all your pain,
So instead you smile and say "I'm alright",
Because it's too hard to explain,

But you need to learn to trust the world,
Need to let the outside in,
Because a problem shared is a problem halved,
It's time to release the you buried deep within,

No one is going to run away,
So let your negativity cease,
Though you feel like a puzzle incomplete,
Let others be your missing piece,

I don't know where I'd be in life,
Without my friends and family,
So if you ever want your smile back,
It's time to let yourself be free,

So anxiety cannot **** you,
And now I see its true,
And even if I have it my whole life,
I know you guys will pull me through.....
