[Chorus: Requiem]

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend

[Verse 1: Requiem]

Again, again, again and again

Mind make me go again and again

Only escape, pad and a pen

Trying to stop then at it again

Compulsive, my brain on repeat

But normal is how you see me

My battle below the surface

See habit got me nervous

Robot prisoner got me worthless

Hardly ever serve a purpose

Tell myself that I deserve it

Repeat ‘til I do it perfect

Touch wood, check door, bless me, pray

Ignore it then I’m made to pay

Wish it would go away but stress is here to stay

[Chorus: Requiem]

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend

[Verse 2: Requiem]

This an S O S to my O C D

H E L P hope seems bleak

Brain E F T with no receipt

T R A double P E D

Fearful of D E A T H

Rather just L I V E

Put my faith in G O D

Know he’s watchin’ over me

50 M G of A D

12 weeks of C B T

28 years L I F E

Heart full of L O V E

Support team from VIC to NT

No more repeat repeat

Focus on the rhyme on beat

Anxiety is what I’ll defeat

[Chorus: Requiem]

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend

A—G—A—I—N, compulsion is my only friend

A—G—A—I—N, defy it could be my end

A—G—A—I—N, out of control around the bend

A—G—A—I—N, a wound that I’m tryna mend
