Under The Wire

Backed against the wall
Anxiety is chocking all my energy
I feel shadows on my eyes
From all the stress I'm feeling
I just can't go on
I'm breaking down
It's pilling up
My life is stuck
I feel life I'm drowning
Under the wire
The fear and the panic
Is fighting to take me
Under the fire
No boiling or sticking
To things I can fight now
Upside down
Screaming loud
No way out
Who will break my fall?
The credit cards, the bankruptcy it's killing me
The truth is making my skin crawl
The corporations stick it to us, search and seize
The angry air
No jobs out there
The dark despair
Now everyone's crashing
Under the wire
The fear and the panic
Is fighting to take me
Under the fire
No boiling or sticking
To things I can fight now
Sinking deeper down
The money, the darkness
I'm coming up - For air
I'm beat and I'm broke
And it's breaking my soul all apart
Under the wire
The fear and the panic
Is fighting to take me
Under the fire
No boiling or sticking
To things I can fight now
Upside down
Screaming loud
No way out
