As you drown you stop
You start to think
And that's the worst mistake you could make
(But Its one you keep making)

You try to stop
But by now it's too late
You're eaten inside out
By a beast that lives within

You don't know its name
Or how to describe what it does
Others have names
You don't know if you have what they have

(You don't want to be a burden)
You just want to know what it is
(You don't want to barge in)
What it is that's eating you alive

You start shaking
You feel uneasy
Your breathing speeds
You feel like shit

You don't have a word for it
The others, they call it Anxiety
You don't know if that's correct
You just know that it eats you alive
Drowning in the unknown
And you are tired of drowning.
