Reeves, Sarah - Anxious Lyrics






Throw the covers over my head
Finding comfort in my own bed
Staring at a screen light, looking at the highlights, everybody's good life
Reminding me of what I don't have
Second guessing who I really am
Maybe I should give up, will I ever measure up, I don't think I'm good enough

Pressure building, body shaking
I can't take it, I can't take it
Feel the tension, pushing pulling
I can't fight it, I can't fight it

I don't wanna live my life like this
Anxious
I gotta lot of good in me to give
But I'm anxious
So many things I know I miss
Cause I'm anxious
I wish I could shake this
I don't wanna be anxious

Devil's running around my mind
Why do I let myself believe the lies
It's like I'm his playground, push me in the background, and I shut the world out

Pressure building, body shaking
I can't take it, I can't take it
Feel the tension, pushing pulling
I can't fight it, I can't fight it

I don't wanna live my life like this
Anxious
I gotta lot of good in me to give
But I'm anxious
So many things I know I miss
Cause I'm anxious
I wish I could shake this
I don't wanna be anxious

Oh oh oh
This is my confession
Oh oh oh
I'm coming out of hiding
Oh oh oh
Oh, his is my confession
Oh oh oh
I'm coming out of hiding

Can't keep living like this, living like this
Oh oh oh
I'm coming out, I'm coming out
Oh oh oh
Oh, this is my confession
Oh oh oh
I'm coming out of hiding

Cause I don't wanna live my life like this
Anxious
I gotta lot of good in me to give
But I'm anxious
So many things I know I miss
Cause I'm anxious
I wish I could shake this
I don't wanna be anxious

    It's like someone is hearing my every thought

  2. M.... D....

    Wow this song resonated with me so much as someone who has anxiety. Thank you for creating this beautiful song and for all of your other music. It's very inspiring.

    Sarah Elizabeth Reeves, I pray you truly did come out of this season of anxiety. Thank you for being different and vulnerable and brave, you’ve been a blessing to many, including me. Never ever give up Sarah! Please don’t let anyone change who you are in Christ. Do not compromise your convictions; stay meek and humble and beautiful. Sing for the Lord!

    I’ve struggled most of my life with anxiety and depression. How did you write a song so like my life? A song so like my feelings and thoughts. My bed was my only refuge; sleep was my only escape from the Devil’s lies. The pressure and tension was exhausting, I couldn’t take it, and I couldn’t fight it. I felt isolated and alone, unloved and unlovable, hopeless, helpless, and worthless. I didn’t want to live, I didn’t want help, and I gave up.

    I never said anything to anyone about my mental health issues.

    I have attempted suicide three times in my life, and twice made a plan to commit suicide but didn’t carry it out. My last attempt was 17 days before you posted this video. For the first time in my life I sought professional help. And with the help of Jesus I’m making progress.

    Am I perfect? No! Do I still have bouts of depression and anxiety? Yes. But not as much, I have medication now and the support of my family, friends, a therapist, psychiatrist, and most importantly God by my side. I’m not giving in to the Devil.

    Remember Sarah’s song “Broken Things”. Throw down that mirror of you. You have nothing to prove. We just need You (Jesus). When we’re a mess, that’s when He’s the best, wait on Jesus, trust in Him.

    Be like Him.

  5. N.... S....

    Thank you 🙏🏻 my Lord, for always finding a way to speak to my heart ♥️

  6. u.... a....

    all american brought me here

  7. J.... E....

    So incredible. What a gift that you have given others through your vulnerability. Thank you for sharing your journey and that there is hope. What a beautiful voice you have and what a powerful platform to be able to be a light to other who are walking through darkness. May you be blessed to overflowing.

  8. R.... S....

    Sarah thank u for being so transparent in your song. That's the first step to recovery... You don't know how many people you freed in terms of speaking about this constant battle, you broke the silence. There's a post I read the other day about anxiety I will link it: https://lookafteru4me.wordpress.com/2019/10/14/anxiety-an-ongoing-battle/

  9. S.... A....

    I love this song!!! Lord please take the anxiety of all away amen!!!

  10. G.... i....

    This song hits me hard. Although I know jesus has my back, Iife is not all rainbows and unicorns. I still go through this but i know through him, i can overcome this too. ❤

  11. J.... l....

    Check out "Kingdom Child" she is a daughter in Christ and she has so much potential for leading sons and daughters to Jesus by her songs as you do Sarah.

    All Glory is His for I have nothing to gain in this world, by passing on her channel, all credit belongs to God.

    💙 Always,

  12. B.... P....

    I love this song whoever ever you feel anxious rely on Jesus

  13. A.... A....

    Your lyrics r just amazing. God bless ... You inspire me

  14. O.... G....

    No Doctor or any therapy does it like Jesus. He reminds us that we should cast our cares upon as he cares for us. Proverbs 12:25 Anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad. 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Philippians 4:6-7 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

  15. E.... G....

    She's an style music!

  16. J.... A....

    I think am the only Nigerian fan sara has

  17. G.... M....

    Cadê os Bros!?

  18. B.... L....

    Thank you for this song. You have no idea how much it meant to me... especially with what I’m going through. I don’t feel so alone❤️ God is good and reveals himself in amazing ways through the dark times. I’ve learned it’s when He shines the brightest & shows me who I am in Him ... through my anxiety and depression. Thank you for your vulnerability❤️

  19. m.... ....

    Why didn't she ever mention G-d even once? And where's her wedding ring? She's kind proposing the idea of getting over anxiety and depression by yourself.

  20. O.... P....

    Sarah Reeves, I really enjoyed your video.
    The lyrics to the song "Anxious" caught my attention, and it was very brave of you to sing like a "confession". Rest assured that the melody is very deep, because we have many more people today who suffer from anticipation, anxiety, depression. Our society is full of it (who has never been so hyper thoughtful and worried).

    I see it all, just like you (I believe), as a great act of evil. Perhaps not always directly, but indirectly, passively. And Satan has always found this breach in people's psychological and has already destroyed many lives.

    Only Jesus really brings us real peace.
    "Do not worry about anything! Under all circumstances present your concerns to God ..." (Philip 4: 6)

    Your music has touched me accordingly.
    Let us pray for the world and for the people.

    I wish I could hear your story if it were possible. Maybe on YouTube, who knows ?!

    In addition, I wish you the peace of the Lord Jesus and may God continue to use you as a living instrument in his hands. You're beautiful this way. Never let them take it from you.

  21. S.... B....

    Speaks to me, excellent song.

  22. C.... M....

    Many think this is a video, but I see a woman in pain...
    Remember:
    Jesus said first, “Do not be afraid” This is what we need to hear in these days when many of us are so anxious.
    Remember, fear doesn’t glorify God. Jesus was always saying “fear not” to his frightened disciples.
    The Gospels record that every time they were in trouble,
    they expressed themselves in manifestations of fear, anxiety, worry and panic,
    but the Lord always came along at the right moment and said, “Fear not.” We are called to do the same.

  23. A.... G....

    Thank you so much Sarah!🙏 I have been going through a season. I haven't been wanting to listen to Christian music lately, but I was sitting on my bed and just started listening to the music. God has given you a gift. You really made me want to listen to Christian music again. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!❤️🙏

  38. d.... ....

    Jesus Christ this was a pretty nice surprise lol. This song came up as an ad and I didn’t skip because of the feel of production and your voice and I really dug it. I decided to listen all the way through and loved it but I guess I didn’t listen to the lyrics fully because the last part of the song hit me pretty hard out of nowhere and made me cry lol and I realized it resonated with me so much. Tremendous job on conveying such a touchy subject in a raw and moving way through your voice and lyrics. Thank You!😁

  39. T.... 2....

    Searched for this song after it came up in a YouTube ad. Happy that I didn't click the ad away. Best ad I've seen!

  40. T.... K....

    This song captures how I've been feeling for the longest time. I lay awake sometimes thinking why? What's the point of my life? Somehow God keeps reminding me that I'm loved and accepted with all the cracks and ghosts that live inside me. In the blessings He's given me. In the friends and family I've got.

  41. C.... L....

    Wow! Such the feels!!!!! Love your song and voice

  62. B.... B....

    Hey Sarah, this is a beautiful song and it's great to see you put yourself out there and share this struggle with everyone! I do some song writing on the side and often my songs are about me going through something and what I learned or what I want to tell myself, hoping to encourage others. I have struggled with anxiety too, and about 20 years ago, anxiety is what led me to accept Jesus as my Savior. Back then I read a book called Be Anxious For Nothing by Joyce Meyer. I began having a peace I never had before and was full of joy to have guidance in my life from God's Word, rather than from the world. I still struggle with anxiety at times, but have learned many things to do or not do, which help keep me from getting anxious, or help me get out of an anxious state of mind. Several months ago I wrote a song called Trust In You, which came about from a trial I was going through. Here is a scratch recording of that song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nI963og11U. God bless you and keep up the good work!

  63. J.... ....

    I love this song I can definitely relate to the lyrics

  64. N.... F....

    God love's us so don't be Anxious...it's so beautiful song,very inspiring and helpful❤

  65. P.... K....

    I want to be an instrument for the Lord. Not a vessel for destruction. I know I have been posting many times in her videos. I am trying to convince what I am saying is true for me too.

  66. H.... H....

    Thank you Sarah! I've been in this fight and the Lord has been bringing it into the light. Your song has helped me id my enemy. Thank you for listening to the Lord and be vulnerable. Jesus is faithful. Thank you.

  67. B.... l....

    I don't wanna be like this
    I ❤️ the song

  68. Y.... S....

    It's so honest of you open up on this. It feels great to know that there's somebody out there who can understand what I am going through right now. God bless you, Sarah Reeves

  69. C.... A....

    If anyone is currently experiencing anxiety or depression let me pray for you! I suffered for many years tried all kinds of meds and therapy I tried to commit suicide many times and found out it was demonic and I had to get freed from it! I can currently say I am full of joy and peace I have never felt in my life before! I'm very serious. I will pray for you and kick that thing out! ❤❤❤ love you all, thank you Sarah! Keep those lies out girl!

  70. A.... G....

    Thank you for releasing this song. <3

  71. l.... c....

    🎵🔥👌❤️

  72. M.... G....

    Can totally relate to this thank you for releasing this beautiful song

  73. A.... G....

    Sarah, May God bless you for this song. This song shows we are not alone when we are going through these emotions, there is freedom in the end of it all!

  74. D.... R....

    What's sad is when you do push the world away and no one even notices you're gone..

    D.... R....

    My family have seen me go into mental institution and still deny that I am not okay. It could be worse. Look back at the bible. It took someone's whole life of suffering and redemption to understand God's message. Don't sell your self short.

    D.... R....

    God always notices. Always. That’s who won me from my anxiety and depression. That’s why I’m alive.

  75. r.... ....

    Its good to know you're not alone and God will raise a standard against the attack, and keep His people and the world for that matter.

    I know what it’s like to just want to be yourself. A person who’s on fire for God and everyone around just rejects you because of that. They see all of your mistakes and hate that you speak the Gospel with such confidence. It pushes so many people away and those of us who have had it so hard in life are gifted beyond gifted with discernment. We know what’s going on and what your intentions are in our lives. We can’t even be fooled by the top Leadership in the church. We see right through it all and we get kicked out! A true believer will face wild adversity and loneliness. That’s part of the deal. And why we have to learn to find our full love and joy in God alone. Should He bless us with a friend it would be by miracle, that is the purpose of the Holy Spirit who holds us in warmth during prayer. Most people’s intentions always turning out being no good. We sacrifice it all to the altar. The pain, misery, confusion, depression and anxiety daily. It’s no joke!
