lyrics

Every morning when I wake up
I’m consumed with doubts about the day
It’s not fear, worry or negativity
Just a fatalistic apathy in me

So how I break out
And claim this day for
Something more?
And find the sunbeams hidden within me
How do I get content with being here?
Simply being here?
Without some creeping bittersweet feeling?


I just wanna feel good again
Like we did when we were young
All I want is one pure feeling
But the darkness continues to come

Seems the same disease has suddenly
Infected everyone around me now
But we’re all so young why can’t we see
The hopeful, happy brighter side of things
Long ago, happiness somehow lost its cool
We smirk instead of dance, why can’t we see wallflowers never bloom?

Then we zoom from place to place, just trying to find
Something more
Feeling jipped like it’s all just a chore

I just wanna feel good again
Like we did when we were young
All I want is one pure feeling
But the darkness continues to come
