im perfectly fine, well

Verse 1

It starts somewhere beneath my skin

A little tremble I can't hold in

From my feet, it climbs so slow

Like a storm that only I can know

Verse 2

My hands go cold, the room feels strange

I try to breathe, but nothing changes

I tell myself that I'm alright

But I'm already losing the fight

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know why

I can't make it stop

I'm begging my body

To let me come back

Chorus

I feel the fear crawling up my legs

Taking the air, stealing my breath

My heart is racing, I'm losing control

There's a thousand alarms inside my soul

I just want the world to slow down

I just want my feet on the ground

Tell me I'm safe, tell me it's passing

I'm so tired of being afraid of what happens

Verse 3

The walls feel closer than before

I can't explain what I'm fighting for

Everybody sees an ordinary day

But inside me, everything's turning grey

Verse 4

I count the seconds, I count my breaths

I wish my mind would give me rest

Hate the fear of feeling afraid

And all the plans that panic takes away

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know why

It comes without a sound

One minute I'm standing

The next I'm breaking down

Chorus

I feel the fear crawling up my legs

Taking the air, stealing my breath

My heart is racing, I'm losing control

There's a thousand alarms inside my soul

I just want the world to slow down

I just want my feet on the ground

Tell me I'm safe, tell me it's passing

I'm so tired of being afraid of what happens

Bridge

Please don't tell me it's nothing

I know that you cannot see

How loud the silence gets

When the fear takes over me

I don't need all the answers

I don't need to be strong

Just stay here for a moment

Until this feeling is gone

Chorus

I feel the fear crawling up my legs

But I am still here, I haven't left

My heart is racing, but I'll take it slow

One little breath, then another one more

I just want the world to slow down

I just want to feel safe somehow

Even when the panic surrounds me

There's still a part of me breathing

Outro

One breath...

Then another...

I'm still here.

I'm still here.
