Do you ever get that feeling,
You know the one I mean,
The one you can’t describe
Not even in your wildest dreams.
It kind of feels like drowning
While simultaneously watching yourself drown,
But there’s nothing you can do,
Just watch your body slowly sink down.
Or maybe it feels like...
Your stomach is full of lead,
Your knees are constantly buckling
And a baseball bat to the head.
Do you ever get that feeling,
You know the one I’m talking about,
When your breathing is shallow
And you’re full of self-doubt.
The constant storm of thoughts
That seem to take over your brain,
Overthinking every moment
Until it drives you insane.
Or the feeling you get
When your friend confides in you,
And tells you how
There’s nothing you can do.
Because the deed has been done,
And she’s trying to move on,
But you can’t simply forgive
An act that’s so wrong.
Do you ever get that feeling?
You know the one I mean,
The one that eats you alive
And makes you want to scream.
