Verse: G / Em / A7 / D
Chorus: Em / A7 / Bm

I’m anxious about everything, it’s true
From when I start to stir to when I’m back in bed
I doubt everything that I think and do
And most of the time, I kinda wish I were dead

I’m anxious about all the taxes I owe
I’m anxious about my student loans
But if I won the Lotto, I already know
I’d be anxious about what to do with the dough

  I don’t have a better message here
  No stirring climax, no words of hope
  I’m in debt and Jewish and genderqueer
  And my brain makes it hard for me to cope

I’m anxious about the world we’re in
I’m anxious about our bigot in chief
I’m anxious about my kith and kin
That some support him is beyond belief

  I used to be worse, before SSRIs
  Took me down, from like a nine to a four
  But my energy levels also took a dive
  And that only makes me anxious more

I can function onstage, where my role’s defined,
But I’m out of place when in society
There’s nothing I do that isn’t undermined
’Cause I’m always filled with anxiety

  I don’t have a better message here
  No stirring climax, no words of hope
  I’m tired and stressed and maybe too sincere
  And my brain makes it hard for me to cope

[hum]
And I’m always filled with anxiety
