How can you say you understand?

have you ever felt this feeling?

Have you felt that sinking feeling?
Have you ever felt more helpless
than your mind can simply endure.

Have you ever struggled not to let your car drift across that Centre lane?
Have you ever wept at the silent knife calling your name?
Have you ever felt the call of that razors edge?
Have you ever begged for sleep to come and push you off this ledge.

Have you ever felt that feeling?

How can you say you understand?
