Anxiety Lyrics - No Control - Bad Religion

It's a love song to the self, a story recapped every day 

It's a world of bogus feelings and a world of slow decay 

It's a world of laughter hidden by this world of fear and torment 

It's a game of strange compulsion, our visceral convulsion 

Anxiety for love of life, anxiety for pain 

Anxiety, a feeling that you know you can't contain 

Anxiety destroys us but it drives the common man 

Foundation of society, anxiety, suppress it if you can 

The caste of coffee-achievers didn't perform like they planned 

The morning rush hour traffic is our play of false elan 

So run around your frantic track and lay you down to sleep 

Tomorrow's the redemption, we strive for that exception

Anxiety for love of life, anxiety for pain 

Anxiety, a fear that you have nothing more to gain 

Anxiety destroys us but it drives the common man 

Foundation of society, anxiety, suppress it if you can 

What are we angry for? 

We all need a common cure 

That common goal for which you strive 

To have more than the other guy 

The quest for truth, the quest for gold, we end up all the same 

The common lie, the righteous cry, we end up all the same 

The angry crowd, those lost and found, everybody's all the same 

The poet's pen, these words I lend, we all bend to
