Welcome to our musical therapy session titled "Being a Person is a Nightmare". The song basically dissects anxiety and future angst. It describes how our mere existence can be overwhelming and why first world problems are problems, too.

Anxiety
Is with me like the sun
Society
I try to be someone
But I am afraid of myself sometimes
Yet I ought to be myself more times
And I can’t say
That I am changing much
If I am honest
I am so modest
Because its easier to walk away
And I am better off when just okay
Cause its easier to stop and fade away
Timidity
Controls me like the moon
I have to pee
But don’t wanna go to soon
Cause I am afraid of the world sometimes
Yet It has to mean the world at times
And I can’t say
That I try too hard
If I am honest
I am so modest
Because its easier to walk away
And I am better off when just okay
Cause its easier to stop and fade away
I guess being here is a nightmare
Its a nightmare and I sleep to long
I guess being here why would I care
Why would I care 
If I would be gone
