Langhorne Slim
Panic Attack
I called a healthcare professional
Wanna speak to someone confidentially
Don't know just how I’m feelin'
But I'm feelin’ feelings exponentially
A calm voice started asking questions
I said, "Ma'am, I was hoping for advice
I'm feelin' lots of feelings
Not a single one of them feels nice"
She said, "Do you ever think about dying?"
I said, "No, but sometimes I lie"
"And do you wanna live?"
I said, "Yes, but I feel like shit"
"On a scale of one to ten do you feel anxious?
On a scale of one to ten do you feel scared?"
I said, "I'm feelin' lots of feelings
And for some reason I cut my hair
Sometimes my skin starts crawling
Sometimes the creaturе's calling
Sometimes the walls start caving in
Somеtimes I feel isolated
Sometimes I feel so small
Sometimes I get irritated
Right now, I feel it all"
She spoke and I tried to listen
Said, "Son, there may be no cure
But I swear that life's worth living
It’s the only thing worth living for"
To my friends in the same position
I wish there was a cure
But I know that life’s worth living
It's the only thing worth living for
I called a healthcare professional
Wanna speak to someone confidentially
Don’t know just how I'm feelin'
But I'm feelin’ feelings exponentially
