Stress and Anxiety

I'm sick they say it's because I forgot to take my medicine;
I took too much at once it's got me diving in my head again;
Conversations work my voices got me thinking, now I'm red again
Mind blown cannonball I need to calm down take a sedative;
When I argue back that's when the anxiety settles in;
I'm not good at mind games my buttons are too sensitive;
Once I heard the music cue I knew someone had pressed begin;
Emotions causing bad vibes inviting stress to step right in;
The only way to relax is to grab the pad and pen again;
The day is over, time to sleep my conscious starts meddling;
I thought I was in control my nightmares tell me to guess again;
It's a hard battle take it from a veteran
Got to beat these fears no surrendering but they're attached like bones on skeletons;
Life is full of good and bad it seems the bad never ends
The only way to win that fight is to not focus on the bitter end.
