[Verse 1]
Look, now, tell me this is nothing
Something's playing tricks and it's chipping away
I can't, swirling is the trouble

[Verse 2]
It is always something
Life keeps throwing things that don't go my way

All familiar places I can't escape
[Chorus]
Calling me
I feel it coursing through the inside
And I can't get away
Somewhere inside
I feel it breathing and I realize
The worst is on its way
[Bridge]
And it makes me sick
But I deal with it
Set it all aside
My confidence overrides
[Scatting]
[Pre-Chorus]
Calling me

And I can't get away
Somewhere inside
I feel it breathing and I realize
The worst is on its way
[Post-Chorus]
The worst is on its way
The worst is on its way
[Bridge]
And it makes me sick
But I deal with it
Set it all aside
My confidence overrides
[Scatting]
