Symptoms Song

about

An upbeat jam and a half listing a handful of my chronic illness symptoms.

lyrics

I'm itchy, and dizzy, and almost always hungry
But I'm nauseous, and cautious of standing up too quickly
For my vision is fleeting
And so is my stability
Both mentally and physically

Hot flashes, cold flashes, can't see without glasses
Night sweating, day sweating, throat tingling, tongue itching
Blood pressure changing, and sleep hallucinating
And I'm almost always on the verge of fainting

Also eye twitching and itching
It feels like someone's standing on my torso
And more so, my bones feel like they're breaking
And my head, my chest, my muscles, lungs, and joints are always aching
And menstrual pain's debilitating

Sharp pain, and dull pain, and throbbing in my brain
It feels like there's cold liquid bubbling in my veins
It hurts like there's bruising when nothing is there
I've seen so many doctors, they sit in their chair
Say "It's psychosomatic."
I guess I'm just being dramatic
