Tempest

Alright, okay, relax, and don't panic
Inhale, exhale, and stay calm
Take time, assess the situation
And hope that it doesn't last too long
It's not real, it's all just imagined
Sinking in my mind, I can't claw out
Enslaved to crippling sensations
Fuck it, I'm spiraling down

Obtrusive thoughts turn to paroxysm
Free falling through rapid strains of high emotions
Like a tempest, churning in my head, pushing down

C'mon, catch your breath, and try to stop crying
Sit up, focus on what's real
Try to act like everything is typical
No matter how you feel
Don't let your instincts take over
Block out all your thoughts and disavow
Take stock, control your emotions
Fuck it, I'm panicking now

Obtrusive thoughts turn to paroxysm
Free falling through rapid strains of high emotions
Like a tempest, churning in my head, it's begging me to give in
But I'm not gonna let it drown me
Hell no

I'm copin' but still hopin'
That I can make it through this night unbroken
Nocturnal, abnormal
My chronotype is making me antisocial
An implosion of emotion
Set fire to an endless ocean
Chaotic, alcoholic
I want to try to make my life less toxic

I'm copin' but still hopin'
That I can make it through this night unbroken
Nocturnal, abnormal
My chronotype is making me antisocial
An implosion of emotion
Set fire to an endless ocean
Chaotic, alcoholic
I think I need to make my life less toxic
I think I need to make my life less toxic
