Feeling My Heart

There's a room full of emptiness
And then its like Paris in spring
I thought your jokes were the funniest
And at the end of the day my depression rings
Everytime we switch lanes
I‘m falling apart
Can we stop playin games?
I stopped feelin my heart
I know at times
It feels like it’s too late
But I'm afraid you're letting go
'Cause you’re the only life I've ever known
Girl your energy scares me
But then it hurts when others around you yeah
And everytime I‘m asleep I dream of you in my bed
Cuz girl its you, you are always stuck in my head
On the other hand you make me sick
and your face drives me mad
But when we fight i forgive and forget cuz
I know at times
It feels like it’s too late
But I'm afraid you're letting go
'Cause you’re the only life I've ever known

Verse 1
Have to get up each morning
to do the same chores all again
again again again
Got all my laundry folded
did all my sit ups all again
again again again.
But now I need to let go I – I – I
I´m gonna give my friends a call I – I – I
I put my party dress on
I drink a bottle of rum
I need my body to unwind.
Cooldown 1
I go home way past dawn
and the sunlight hurts my eyes
No – No – No
so I put my glasses on
yeah I need them to disguise
No – No – No
I got hit by a bus
or at least that’s how I feel
No – No – No
headache and sham, headache and shame
are creeping over me.
Verse 2
I can´t get up this morning
I fell asleep in clothes again
oh no oh no again
Oh lord where is my mobile
I might have lost my stuff again
oh no oh no again.
But lucky me I found my phone I – I – I
with an invite and missed calls I – I – I
I put my party dress on
I drink a bottle of rum
I need my body to unwind.

Verse 1
I wake up and I’m feeling exhausted
Went to bed at like 3 in the morning
Stayed awake just staring at my phone
Shoulda put it down but couldn’t leave it alone
Wasn’t even looking at anything decent
Just scrolling aimlessly for no reason
I know I’ve only got myself to blame
The worst part is the night before was the same
They say that you need 8 hours a night
Ha, I’m lucky if I even get 5
I never feel revived, barely alive
Wait, can you die from being sleep deprived?
It’s at that moment that I decide right
Tonight’s the night I break the habit of a lifetime
In bed by 9, light’s out by 10
That’s if I even make til then
Chorus x 2
I need sleep, sleep, sleep
I should be having sweet, sweet, dreams
But I just keep keep keep
Staring at my screen, screen, screen
Adlib:
Aw man, why do I do this to myself?
I’m literally my own worst enemy
Something’s gotta change
I can’t go on like this!
Verse 2
I stumble through the day feeling like a zombie
Who’s body’s been powered purely by coffee
I drink about 20 cups without flinching
You know it’s bad when you don’t even mind instant (ugh)
By some miracle I make it to the evening
Stick a bit of Netflix on while I’m eating
It’s gets to 9 o’clock and I should hit the hay
But the next episode’s started to play…
3 hours later I drag myself to bed
Asking “How the hell did this happen again?”
I take out my phone and place it on the unit
Face down though coz I’m refusing to use it
But now I’m lying here staring at the ceiling
Tossing and turning, anything but sleeping
It’s the first time today that I’ve felt alert
Ah one little look won’t hurt…
Chorus:
I need sleep, sleep, sleep
I should be having sweet, sweet, dreams
But I just keep keep keep
Staring at my screen, screen, screen
Man I need sleep, sleep, sleep
So badly I could scream, scream, scream
I should be counting sheep, sheep, sheep
But I’m looking at memes, memes, memes
What is actually wrong with me?
I genuinely think I’ve got a problem.
I’m gonna Google it…
No! Just Go. To. Sleep!
