Lyric Drafts

Hyde and Me

Roots of Evil 

Crushed Under Anxiety

This is about anxiety and how difficult it is to deal with. There is so much I wish I could do but anxiety stops me from being able to. The song is about how I feel  

 

My life is upside down  

Simplicity is difficulty  

This refers to anxiety making anything difficult even the simplest of things like talking to people.  

 

Anxiety walks beside me  

Hiding me from myself 

This means that I am in the shadow of anxiety 

 

I can't take this anymore  

This is getting sick of feeling this way and trying to break away from it 

 

This regression takes possession 

It dissolves my composure 

Anxiety makes you want to curl up into a ball and regress into a small version of yourself to hide from the world. 

 

Ruining my passion 

I can't do the things I want because of anxiety  

 

A premonition of the pain I feel  

It feels so real  

It doesn’t cause physical pain, but it scares me 

 

My emotions bury me 

It feels like my emotions are all over and become too much 

 

I just want the world to hear me  

But I cant say a word 

I want to sing, and my anxiety affects it a lot, ironic isn't it. 

 

 

Eyes everywhere  

This is the panic of people watching  

Is supposed to be a Linkin Park One step closer vibe 

 

 

Eyes (hold scream for ages)  

Is supposed to be a Linkin Park given up vibe  

 

Conflicted by these feelings 

Addicted to the eyes that tell those lies  

This is referencing the eyes staring at me and being scary, unusual and horrifying. 

 

I feel the suppression  

The world is feeding my oppression  

The world makes anxiety worse because it gets bigger which suppresses any confidence 

 

My life is crushed by the weight of a thousand voices  

I'm always worried about people talking about me 

 

I cant live in this world  

The world just adds to the anxiety 

 

Suffering in silence 

Too scared to speak up 

 

 

Linkin Park heavily influence my music and lyrics this takes elements from Given up, One step closer and lyrically Somewhere I belong. “I wanna heal I wanna feel” this is how I feel about my anxiety and my song is about how it affects me but hoping there will be a resolution. 

Bottled Storms

Limbo 

Façade

Starlight

I lay to rest
