Panic by Armac Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've got a pit in my stomach and a feeling I can't seem to shake
I'm stuck in a nightmare, but can't pinch myself back awake
There's a phantom that's shaking me, breaking me, taking my nerve
But I know he's not bringing me anywhere I don't deserve

[Verse 2]
I'm a quintessential mental case of Mondays or the blues
But as it's been described to me, I'm just paying my dues
I'm climbing up a ladder built from all of my mistakes
Each new one makes it taller, until the whole thing fucking breaks

[Chorus]
How can I stop from feeling lonely, I know I'll weigh you down?
I'm scared that reaching for your hand means both of us will drown
Everyone is struggling to teach me how to float
But I don't think that I can, I'm not a boat

[Bridge]
Think of me as a landmark;
Worth a visit, not a stay
Maybe a lighthouse in the pitch dark;
Stuck in one place, trying to help you on your way
I'll guide you through all stormy weather
To the shelter of my dock
Prepare you for your grand adventure
Sailing away from this rock
[Chorus]
How can I stop from feeling lonely, I know I'll weigh you down?
I know that reaching for your hand means both of us will drown
Everyone is struggling to teach me how to float
But I know I can't, I am not a fucking boat

[Verse 3]
Don't let me tie you to the shore
I don't want to ruin your ability to explore
I'll do my best to send you to a better place than here
Then I'll take my rightful place, shrinking in yr rear view mirror
