MR STRESS



THIS STESS POUNDING IN MY CHEST
WON'T STOP WON'T GIVE IT A REST
SWEATING PALMS, HAIR IN A MESS
ALL CAUSED DAILY BY MR. STRESS
WANTING TO TAKE MY LIFE, BEING A PEST
ALL UP AROUND ME LIKE A RESTRAINING VEST
JUST BREATHE AND RELAX
SHOO AWAY MR. STRESS
CAIN'T, YOU SEE IT IS COMPLEX
CHANGES I AM EXPERIENCING FROM YOU MR. DEATH
COUNTING TO TEN AGAIN AND AGAIN TRYING TO CATCH MY BREATH
DETERMINED TO HOLD ON TO YOU MR.
STRESS RELATED FAILING HEALTH
