Anaphylaxis

I never knew I was anaphylactic
I took the medicine, it wasn't working
Yeah, I needed something less delicate
'Cause I can't seem to breathe, and I'm totally nervous again

I've gotta confess, it was you all along
Trying my best to keep my head on
But my heart rate is flying
I think I'm dying, I'm hoping it's all in my head

This isn't a game
I'm not feeling well
My face is aflame

It was starting to swell
It was starting to bloat
And I started freaking out
Like I was way too stoned
Was it the allergies or just me being me or both?

Came home from the hospital hazed out on chemicals
You helped me out of the back of your Audi
Felt like I'd been kicked in the testicles
Electrical shocks ripped through my body again

Not again (not again)
I'd do anything (not again)
Shoulda stayed home
'Cause I made a mess of things

I confess (I confess)
I started panicking and praying for death (I confess)
I'd do anything now

My face started to swell
My heart started to pound
And I started freaking out
Everything's slowing down
The blood in my ears
Was the only sound
Was it the allergies, or something else freaking me out?

Must've been weird
But what could ya do?
Watching me bottom out as I came unglued
Like, "Am I gonna die?"
Am I already dead?
I keep feeling sick, and it never seems to end

This isn't a game
My face was aflame

It was starting to swell
It was starting to bloat
And I started freaking out
Like I was way too stoned
"And how does it feel?"
Well, I just don't know
Is it just me or the weed in my tea?
Or maybe it's something else entirely, like some
Allergies or just me being me or both
