that funny feeling (rewrite)

I can't really rhyme very well, or write. so... apologies. [verse 1] finally asking for some help and swallowing my pride friends won’t listen to me and I’m stabbed in my backside scared of my own shadow and watching my every move giving it my all despite knowing you’ll disapprove there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. [verse 2] writing my own hero that I thought I’d always need. giving him the deepest, darkest flaws inside of me. broken hearts and promises, makeshift therapy. run into burning buildings always voluntarily working from dawn to dusk, told secrets I cannot keep, work always follows me home so I cry myself to sleep. writing to escape this damned reality while I sit in silence and question my sexuality there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. [verse 3] sleepless nights, stick & pokes unblocking my ex bloodshot eyes, fake smiles, fill the void with meaningless sex always stopped when I said no, but never heard a yes. stepped outside to call his wife; left me a crying mess. total disassociation lie, say that I’m fine. googling ptsd but denying what I find. exploited daddy issues, making myself small. the silent contemplation of ending it all. there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. there it is again, that funny feeling. that funny feeling. hey, what can you say? we were overdue. but it’ll be over soon. just wait. ba-da-da, ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da
