Yeah, yeah, yeah

Every time you cross my mind, you get right under my skin
Am I crazy out my mind the situation I'm in
And it gets harder just to breathe, feel like the walls are closing in
But all I need is some closure
Yeah, I can't eat, I can't sleep, I get anxiety
When you're not here with me, I get anxiety
I can't eat, I can't sleep, don't know why you can't see
You give me, you give me, give me

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of the song ‘anxiety’ by blackbear, the artist talks about the constant struggle he faces whenever his significant other crosses his mind. Blackbear admits that he feels like he's going crazy because the situation he's currently in is affecting him mentally. He finds it hard to breathe, and it feels like the walls are closing in on him. Blackbear’s only solution is to find closure, but it seems like it's easier said than done.


As the song continues, Blackbear makes it clear that anxiety has consumed him wholly. He can't eat or sleep, and he feels it's all because his lover is not around. Even though he hopes his happy demeanor portrays that he is fine, he is still scared of losing that special someone. The constant worry affecting him is slowly exploding inside his head, leaving him no room to breathe. Once again, seeking closure seems to be the only feasible solution for him.


The chorus is catchy, and the beat is groovy, but beneath all that, the lyrics hold a deep meaning that many people can relate to. The song shows how anxiety can slowly chip away at a person's mental state, and it's a constant battle that they face daily, which can be overwhelming.


Line by Line Meaning

Every time you cross my mind, you get right under my skin
You constantly invade my thoughts and affect me deeply


Am I crazy out my mind the situation I'm in
I question my own sanity because of how much you affect me


And it gets harder just to breathe, feel like the walls are closing in
The feelings you create make it difficult for me to function normally


But all I need is some closure
I need closure to move on from these intense emotions


I can't eat, I can't sleep, I get anxiety
You have a powerful hold on me that causes me to experience anxiety


When you're not here with me, I get anxiety
Your absence triggers an overwhelming feeling of anxiety


Don't know why you can't see
I can't understand why you can't see how much you affect me


You give me, you give me, give me
You are the source of my anxiety and other intense feelings


Every time I smile what I'm doing fine, does it show?
I wonder if my true feelings are visible when I try to hide them


'Cause I'm really freaking out, too scared of letting you go
I'm afraid of losing you and my intense feelings for you are driving me crazy


Then my heart drowns out my thoughts, my head's about to explode
My emotions are so intense that they cloud my judgment and overwhelm me


Anxiet xiet xiet xiet xiet xiet xiet xiety ty
Anxiety is a recurring feeling that consumes me


Give me anxiety
Your presence and hold over me give me anxiety


Anxiety
My intense feelings of anxiety are ever-present
