I've always been afraid
To make the wrong choice:
Picked grade over wellness,
My health is going round & round
Thousands of people lost
Never to be found,
Above all, what I hate
Is commitment
I got anxiety with a date//

This pain gives me a choice:
Live & suffer or
Have a screaming voice,
I'm trapped & lost
Stuck below in a lifeless daze
Stay forever or pay the ferryman's cost,
If to death my life I attempt to commit
I could fail & everyone'd know
My secret'd be out & I'd have to admit//
