This piece was written late at night. There was a time when I was more anxious than I am now, and that’s when I started doing breathing exercises. I suppose some of that experience made its way into the song.

[Hello and welcome to today's guided breathing exercise
Join me as I guide you through this breathing exercise
Over the next two or three minutes]
Close your eyes, breath in
And count: one, two, three, four, five
That was too fast, let's try again
One, two, three, four, five
Breath out, pause, then repeat
Until the feeling subsides
Stay with me, dear, and repeat
Until the feeling subsides
[So begin now, breathing in]
And everyone gets, everyone gets scared at times
Everyone can, everyone can spiral at night
Everyone gets, everyone gets scared at times
Everyone can, everyone can spiral at night
And that's ok, that's alright, that's entirely fine
That's ok, that's alright, that's entirely fine
Stay with me, dear, and repeat
Until the feeling subsides
Stay with me, dear, and repeat
Until the feeling subsides
Stay with me, dear, and repeat, until
[Six, seven, eight, and out]

Probs the most unhinged thing I have created. Maybe I have peaked.
I have sampled Sir David Attenborough’s narration from Tasmania: Weird and Wonderful.

[Sir David Attenborough:
Its beaver-like tail stores fat
But the platypus is best known for its duck-like bill]
[Verse 1: Platypus Maximus]
Yo my name is Platypus Maximus
Who is as wise as an octopus
I’m a mammal but I lay eggs
As non-binary as it gets
I am a softie and very much round
An expert at rolling around
Got some venom so don’t upset me
Other plushies in the room respect me
[Verse 2: MC Rabbit]
I’m a rabbit who is gonna make it
I look up to Shady the other rabbit
My palms are sweaty, eyes are sleepy
As I feel cozy under this beanie
I might suffer from sleep deprivation
But my rhymes never fail to cause sensation
We the dream team, me and platypus
So wait ’til the listeners start to flatter us
