On the surface, everything's just fine But nervous doesn't describe what's going on behind these eyes It's just too easy to fake a smile But you got my heartbeat on repeat Going 'bout a hundred thousand miles My mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes A-n-x-i-e-t-y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Yeah, yeah H-a-t-e-y-o-u And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me You get the best of me I wish I could just let you go But the truth is, you are all I've ever known You're an infection, a medicine just numbs my brain I'm doing anything and everything to feel normal again What's normal again? 'Cause my mind's racing but I could never out run you You're two steps ahead while I'm tripping over my shoes My mind's racing but I could never out run you Playing games with me that I will always lose A-n-x-i-e-t-y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave Yeah, yeah H-a-t-e-y-o-u And all the stupid things you do I give in so easily You get the best of me You get the best of me It's crazy, my thoughts start racing And my mind erasing everything I knew It's just pills and therapy bills Just to keep me away from you And it works for a little while, bullshit smiles But I'm just walk through the motions Either that, or losing track of my emotions 4AM panic attacks Taking red eyes back home I feel by myself but with you, I'm never alone Damn A-n-x-i-e-t-y No matter how hard I try, you will never leave
