Anxiety - Jason Isbell/the 400 Unit

Anxiety

How do you always get the best of me

I'm out here living in a fantasy

I can't enjoy a goddamn thing

Anxiety

Why am I never where I am supposed to be

Even with my lover sleeping close to me

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain

Watching the sunrise slash through the blinds

Dust in the room hovers over mine

Lying here in silence

Wife and child still sleeping deep enough to dream

And oh I'm a lucky man today

But so afraid that time will take it all from me

Anxiety

How do you always get the best of me

I'm out here living in a fantasy

I can't enjoy a goddamn thing

Anxiety

Why am I never where I am supposed to be

Even with my lover sleeping close to me

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain

It's the weight of the world

But it's nothing at all

Light as a prayer and then I feel myself fall

You got to give me a minute

Cause I'm way down in it

And I can't breathe so I can't speak

I want to be strong and steady always ready

Now I feel so small I feel so weak

Anxiety

How do you always get the best of me

I'm out here living in a fantasy

I can't enjoy a goddamn thing

Anxiety

Why am I never where I am supposed to be

Even with my lover sleeping close to me

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain

A crowded room is a burning battlefield

If I don't move I'll come undone

My heart beats harder a hammer striking steel

Will I walk now or be a wait and run

Anxiety

How do you always get the best of me

I'm should be living in a fantasy

I can't enjoy a goddamn thing

Anxiety

Why am I never where I am supposed to be

Even with my lover sleeping close to me

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain

I'm wide awake and I'm in pain
