[Verse 1]
Yeah, I've been stressing lately
But I don’t ever let it show
So nobody knows
[Pre-Chorus]
My friends don't understand me
I'm overthinking tryna cope
I feel so alone
[Chorus]
It's just me and anxiety
It's just me and anxiety
Is it just me fighting to breathe, anxiety
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I'm alive
But sometimes, I feel dead inside
And it's been awhile
Since the last time I really smiled
Yeah, I'm so sick of fakin' like I'm gonna make it right
I'm up every night 'cause my nightmare is real life
[Pre-Chorus]
My friеnds don't understand me
I'm overthinking tryna copе
I feel so alone
[Chorus]
It's just me and anxiety
It's just me and anxiety
Is it just me fighting to breathe, anxiety
[Bridge]
One time for my day ones
Two times for the friends that left me
Three times for my mama
'Cause she always been there for me
Five days till I hit the weekend
But until then, I'll spend my day dreamin'
About a night without fighting demons
About a life with some type of meaning
I get so cynical when I'm livin' in my skull
I need a miracle, yeah
I need a miracle
I get so cynical when I'm livin' in my skull
I need a miracle, miracle, miracle (Yeah)
[Chorus]
It's just me and anxiety
It's just me and anxiety
Is it just me fighting to breathe
Is it just me fighting to breathe, anxiety

Growing up I struggled a lot with anxiety, I had a lot of panic attacks and sometimes it would get the best of me. I wanted to write a song that helped people feel heard in their anxiety and help them not feel alone. I also wanted the song to be an escape from anxiety.
