THE WAY I FEEL BY ASA

LYRICS

I feel like I’m floating through existence
I feel like I’m living after time
I feel like I’m forced to break the silence
Is that a crime?
Is that a crime?
I feel like we’re all following shadows
And shadows they don’t know where to go
I feel like I’m waiting for tomorrow
while today wastes away
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s not that I haven’t noticed
It’s driving me insane
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s just the way I feel
It’s just the way I feel
I feel like a child without a father
And mama tries oh lord knows mama tries
I feel like the world is on my shoulder
I wonder why, wonder why
I feel like I’m not the only one who’s frustrated
I feel like something’s going wrong
I can’t escape it
I feel like the destinies of those meant
To be the best
Are in the hands of liars now the world is on fire
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s not that I haven’t noticed
It’s driving me insane
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s just the way I feel
It’s just the way I feel
I feel like we’re not angry enough
That while we wait, time’s ticking away
I feel there’s gonna be an explosion!
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s not that I haven’t noticed
It’s driving me insane
It’s not that I don’t know
It’s not that I can’t see
It’s just the way I feel
It’s just the way I feel

  1. Nurse but a dimmer reflection
    Of her patient’s deep depression,
    Standing deep in hopeless hospital oppression.
    Wants to make a personal concession-to quit-
    To see a brighter side of life- that’s her now confession.

  2. As I navigate though life
    on borrowed time
    i fume in a desire
    to implode..
    the frightening depth
    of emotions
    which shadows
    the progression
    of humanity
    claiming indifference..
    I have reached
    an impasse
    in this insignificant insousiance
    Wich fustrates my mind.

  3. Mama’s words, shadows cast over me
    can’t really see, the world set on fire
    time’s ticking, anger waiting on that
    ..explosion
    just wanting to feel the way,
    I feel
    self-doubt…Is it enough
    what is meant for me
    heaviness on my shoulders
    the weight of the world
    mama please help me
    something is going wrong
    ..broken silence
    wisdom of my father
    speak to me…

    • That’s a wonderful interpretation of this dark intense and complex music video. It makes one feel bad on so many levels and shows that life is not pleasant for everyone, especially the sick and their caretakers. Keep up the good work here.
