St. Catharine's Psychiatric Help Line, this is Nancy

I'm sure this is all gonna sound really ridiculous
And I don't exactly expect anyone to believe all this
For after a while I've been kinda keeping
Correspondence with my sanity

And I really get the feeling that I'm starting
To lose interest in the letter writing process
The pieces of the letters
They just get progressively shorter and shorter
Until it's not even a reply

I, the whole thing makes me really nervous
I just wish I could show you
What a huge problem this is

As life hangs beside me
I gather all that I can
You were never one for confrontation
But now it lies all in your hands

I kind of have this really terrible habit of
Asking myself all these stupid questions right?
Like what if, what if there's a spot on my body
That I can touch to keep my heart from beating?

Or like what if, what if theres this stray bullet
Out there that's gonna come through my window
And take me out?

Like what if, what if theres this huge unstoppable comet
That's just gonna like, destroy the earth and all of us?
Like what, what if that's happening right now?
Like how can I avoid all these questions if I don't have that?

Like, who is gonna be here? Why?
Who is gonna be there in the hospital?
Who is gonna tell me that all this is bullshit?
It's a dream, just a dream
This is not a joke and I'll never sleep

Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am
Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am

Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am
Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am

Who will keep me from lashing out?
(Lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
(Razor wire)

Who will keep me from lashing out?
(Lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
(Razor wire)

Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now ends

Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire

Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire

Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire
