Bad Religion - Anxiety lyrics
[Bad Religion - Anxiety lyrics]
A story recapped every day
It's a world of bogus feelings
And a world of slow decay
It's a world of laughter hidden by
This world of fear and torment
It's a game of strange compulsion
Our visceral convulsion
Anxiety for love of life, anxiety for pain
Anxiety, a feeling that you
Know you can't contain anxiety destroys us
But it drives the common man
Foundation of society, anxiety
Suppress it if you can
The caste of coffee-achievers didn't
Perform like they planned
The morning rush hour traffic is
Our play of false elan
So run around your frantic track and
Lay you down to sleep
Tomorrow's the redemption
We strive for that exception
Anxiety for love of life, anxiety for pain
Anxiety, a feeling that you have
Nothing more to gain anxiety destroys us
But it drives the common man
Foundation of society, anxiety
Suppress it if you can
What are we angry for?
We all need a common cure
That common goal for which you strive
To have more than the other guy
(Have more than the other guy)
The quest for the truth, the
Quest for the gold, yeah
We end up all the same
The common lie, the righteous cry
We end up all the same
The angry crowd, those lost and found
Everybody's all the same
The poet's pen, these words I lend
We all bend to
Anxiety for love of life, anxiety for pain
Anxiety, a feeling that you
Know you can't contain anxiety destroys us
But it drives the common man
Foundation of society, anxiety
