TIRED
Anxiety Attacks! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been outside, and it's only getting colder
Never stay sane, I can never stay sober
It's never too late, but we're always getting older
The summer's almost over
I told myself I won't miss it...
But I've been so tired, nothing helps me anymore
And it's been so hard getting past the shadows on my floor
And I can feel their blood running through my veins
Blame myself cuz it's all my fault
One more time and it's almost over
Cuz I've been so tired, nothing helps me anymore
And it's been so hard getting past the shadows on my floor
And I can hear them call my name
And I can feel their blood running through my veins
I tell myself we're not the same
When it's over it's over
Flying first class like call it good closure
When it's over that's it
I ain't tryna put the pieces where I know they don't fit
Stop trying, cuz you're making it worse
I know it's hard right now but you're making it worse
Stop lying, how you measure your worth
Yeah scars healed up, but you're making them hurt
Start way too much can't finish
Head still way too loud, can't listen
Too much caffeine and adderall, and still can't pay attention
Start way too much can't finish
Head still way too loud, can't listen
Too much caffeine and adderall, and still can't pay attention
When it's over it's over
Flying first class like call it good closure
When it's over that's it
I ain't tryna put a piece where I know it don't fit
Stop trying, cuz you're making it worse
I know it's hard right now but you're making it worse
Stop lying, how you measure your worth
Yeah scars healed up, but you're making them hurt
Cuz I've been so tired, nothing helps me anymore
And it's been so hard getting past the shadows on my floor
And I can hear them call my name
And I can feel their blood running through my veins
But in the end it's all the same
But I've been so tired
And it's been so hard
And I can hear them call my name

Very good and useful explanation

Everything that he saying is true in this video however he leaves out the root cause the entire root cause. It's not just plainly because you're a chest breather lol. The whole reason that you begin to do those breaths is because of anxiety or stress or panic. Due to a number of reasons which is either black of potassium lack of magnesium lack of eating nutrients and the right foods that you need to eat to be able to function correctly, the lack of good sleep because of worry and or catastrophic events that have happened to your life or that are happening or that have recently happened. That is why you begin to breathe that way and in order to stop it you do the exercises that he's giving you. Just to clarify
