Phone rings
St catharines Psychiatric Help Line
This is Nancy
"I'm sure this is all
Gonna sound really ridiculous and uh
I don't exactly expect anyone
To believe all this
Uh for the last little while
I've been keeping correspondence
With my sanity, and uhh
I really get the feeling that
I’m starting to lose interest
In the letter-writing process
The pieces of the letters
Just get progressively shorter and shorter
Until it’s not even a reply
I uhh 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
Your hands, your hands
"I kind of have this really terrible habit
Of asking myself all these stupid questions
Right? Like what if uhh… 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 there's this uhh stray
Bullet out there that’s gonna
Come through my window and take me
Out? like what if uhh
What if there's 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? 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 uhh 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 razorwire
Razorwire who will keep me from lashing out?
Lashing out anxiety chokes me like razorwire
Razorwire
Now it's all in your hands, in your hands
Now it's all in your hands, in your hands
Now it's all in your hands, in your hands
Now it's all in your hands, in your hands
Anxiety chokes me like
Razorwire anxiety
Chokes me like razorwire
