Free-For-All

Free-for-all I’m wasting my days on this earth Every day goes by just as the same My anxiety is so high when I leave the house My heart pounds and pounds out of my chest I breath deep but it hurts nevertheless Only place I feel safe is in my nest Cooped up like a jail bird No feathers for freedom that’s absurd Can’t leave the house or answer the phone I get anxiety by looking at women Thinking about death or nothing at all I’ll let you in on a little secret: In my head it’s a constant free-for-all Everyones fighting and everyones screaming Tedious thing is I’m the only one breathing It only gets deeper and it only gets faster Left arm starts hurting and my heart beats louder Thump thump thump is all I can hear Paper bag! Theres not one near No one understands they think its ridiculous Face death you cowards and all his militia I just want it to end I just want it to stop Live a normal life where my head just stops Where I can stop thinking and I can stop breathing Life is precious is what they say but its funny; Because they don’t wake up every day fearing No! Now is when I take control now is when it stops Blade to the wrist I’ll have faced death Once and for all no more free-for-all
