Lyrics
[Intro, female voice]
Simple choices turn to mountains
Each decision a heavy weight
Thoughts spiral like endless fountains
Second-guessing seals my fate
What ifs crowd my tired mind
Echoing doubts, hard to unwind
[Chorus, Female voice]
Anxiety pulls me under
Waves of worry crash and thunder
Fighting hard to keep my head up high
But this ocean's in my mind (in my mind)
[Verse 2, male voice]
My ribs are a cage, heart hammering to break free
Breath shallow, vision blurs, why can't they see?
A sea of faces, laughing, moving on
While I'm frozen, screaming silent, smile drawn
God, it's just tomorrow's plans, why does this hurt?
Every choice feels like stepping off the edge of the Earth
[Chorus, female voice]
Anxiety pulls me under
Waves of worry crash and thunder
Fighting hard to keep my head up high
But this ocean's in my mind (in my mind)
[Bridge, male voice]
If I could break these chains of fear
Strip away the masks I wear
I'd find the man I'm meant to be
Anxiety-free, finally me
No more drowning in what-ifs and doubt
Just breathing easy, inside and out
To be unburdened, to simply be
The real me, at last set free
[Chorus, male voice]
Anxiety still pulls, but I'm stronger
Waves crash, but I stand a little longer
Learning to swim, head held up high
This ocean's mine, but so is the sky (so is the sky)
[Outro, male voice]
This ocean's mine, but so is the sky
Anxiety fades, and now I fly
[End]
[Bridge, male voice]
If I could break these chains of fear
Strip away the masks I wear
I'd find the man I'm meant to be
Anxiety-free, finally me
No more drowning in what-ifs and doubt
Just breathing easy, inside and out
To be unburdened, to simply be
The real me, at last set free
[Chorus, male voice]
Anxiety still pulls, but I'm stronger
Waves crash, but I stand a little longer
Learning to swim, head held up high
This ocean's mine, but so is the sky (so is the sky)
[Outro, male voice]
This ocean's mine, but so is the sky
Anxiety fades, and now I fly
[End]
