Anaphylaxis

I never knew I was anaphylactic
I took the medicine, it wasn’t working
Yeah, I needed something less delicate
'Cause I can’t seem to breathe, and I’m totally nervous again
I gotta confess it was you all along
Trying my best to keep my head on
But my heart rate is flying
I think I’m dying, I’m hoping it’s all in my head
This isn’t a game
I’m not feeling well
My face is aflame
It was starting to swell
It was starting to bloat
And I started freaking out
Like I was way too stoned
Was it the allergies, or just me being me, or both?
Came home from the hospital, hazed out on chemicals
You helped me out of the back of your Audi
Felt like I’d been kicked in the testicles
Electrical shocks ripped through my body again
Not again (Not again!)
I’d do anything (Not again!)
Shoulda stayed home 'cause I’ve made a mess of things
I confess (I confess)
I started panicking (I confess)
And praying for death
I’d do anything now
My face started to swell
My heart started to pound
And I started freaking out
Everything’s slowing down
The blood in my ears
It was the only sound
Was it the allergies, or something else freaking me out?
Musta been weird
But what could ya do?
Watching me bottom out as I came unglued
Like, «Am I gonna die?»
Am I already dead?
I keep feeling sick
And it never seems to end
This isn’t a game
My face was aflame
It was starting to swell
It was starting to bloat
And I started freaking out
Like I was way too stoned
«And how does it feel?»
Well, I just don’t know
If it’s just me or the weed in my tea
Or maybe it’s something else entirely
Like some allergies or just me being me or both
