Often Afraid Lyrics by ​ch2rms

Nerves

2024

[Intro]
(You used to get on my nerves, everything you used to say would get on my nerves)
[Verse 1: h3artch3rades]
(Go)
Don't be too specific (Go)
You're way too persistent (You're way)
Your heart's not in it
That you're [?] a lot
Yeah, you waste your talents (Waste your talents)
No checks, no balances (Oh, whoa)
Been a lot, what you been through
Yeah, there's a lot you say you can't do, yeah
Don't speak of things that you don't believe
You're running around 'til you're home free
You say this just to console me
There's nothing that you can sell me
I don't trust what you tеll me
Now I'm stuck with you sadly
Don't even say a word
[Chorus: ch2rms & h3artch3rades, h3artch3rades, ch2rms]
And now our hеarts don't align
And I'm too scared to fight (Scared to fight)
And there's something inside (Inside)
That might keep us alive
Ooh, you wanted it badly
But I can't help be selfish
'Cause I feel claustrophobic inside my own skin
(No, no, no, no, no)
(No, no)
(No, no, no, no, no)
(You wanted it badly)
(In my own skin)
Ooh, you wanted it badly
But I can't help be selfish
'Cause I feel claustrophobic inside my own skin
[Bridge: ch2rms]
(You wanted it badly)
(In my own skin)
(You used to get on my nerves, everything you used to say would get under my skin)
[Verse 2: ch2rms]
This [?]
So glad that you're patient
My heart's freezing cold now
What's the point if I'ma go down?
I'm so mad that it's over
Bringing in peace with disclosure
And my heart screams out
I feel trapped because I'm claustrophobic
[Verse 3: h3artch3rades, h3artch3rades & ch2rms]
But can we break inside your compounds?
Your list of problems compounds
We grow so much deeper, you know the world needs you to show
Some signs of living and go
Where you were needed to show
That you putting you're best foot forward now
[Verse 4: ch2rms]
You got me messed up
And I'm tired of being reckless
And I'm tired of the fights
I've been trying to think ri-ight
She closing me off
What's the point about a fall?
You keep closing me off, off
I think that I'm claustrophobic
[Chorus: ch2rms & h3artch3rades, h3artch3rades]
And now our hearts don't align
And I'm too scared to fight (Scared to fight)
And there's something inside (Inside)
That might keep us alive
Ooh, you wanted it badly
But I can't help be selfish
'Cause I feel claustrophobic inside my own skin
(No, no, no, no, no) (Skin)
(No, no)
(No, no, no, no, no)
(No, no, no, no, no) (Skin)
(No, no)
(No, no, no, no, no, no)
