Nothing//Empty//Stifled Energy
Sometimes it feels I have nothing to say
No words to convey what's in my brain
Nothing, nothing
A million thoughts collide all day
But my lips stay still, it spills and strains
Empty, empty
Critical mind, analytical might
Trapped in time, bathed in light
Stifled, stifled
An endless parade of wordless refrains
Gurgle out an old cliche
Trapped energy, energy
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
Sometimes I can't stand the world's weight
Been trying in vain to numb the pain
Eyes glazing, glazing
Driving around in the dead of night
Searching for a feeling inside
Despondent, despondent
Even though I try and try
Can't even force out a cry
Crumbling, crumbling
And even though you say it's okay
I don't believe you feel that way
Will you still love me? Or leave me?
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
I haven't heard from me in a couple years now
Has it really been four years?
This pressure keeps on building
Life's constantly racing
But my soul just wants to slow down
Wish I could be a stranger
To myself
To everyone else
To all of my doubts
To all the mess they've found
To this endless insomnia
I've felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
I've felt this before
No words to convey what's in my brain
Nothing, nothing
A million thoughts collide all day
But my lips stay still, it spills and strains
Empty, empty
Critical mind, analytical might
Trapped in time, bathed in light
Stifled, stifled
An endless parade of wordless refrains
Gurgle out an old cliche
Trapped energy, energy
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
Sometimes I can't stand the world's weight
Been trying in vain to numb the pain
Eyes glazing, glazing
Driving around in the dead of night
Searching for a feeling inside
Despondent, despondent
Even though I try and try
Can't even force out a cry
Crumbling, crumbling
And even though you say it's okay
I don't believe you feel that way
Will you still love me? Or leave me?
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
Today I opened my throat up
And the words spilled out of my face
Scared that this ocean's gonna swallow me
But I can't stay stuck on the shore
I haven't heard from me in a couple years now
Has it really been four years?
This pressure keeps on building
Life's constantly racing
But my soul just wants to slow down
Wish I could be a stranger
To myself
To everyone else
To all of my doubts
To all the mess they've found
To this endless insomnia
I've felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
Felt this before
I've felt this before
