The Way You Feel by Self-Conscious Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There is no Heaven, nor a Hell
Don't believe them for what they tell
Is full of lies to manipulate
Your current & future mental state
I didn't always know what I do today
Took the scriptures from my heart & walked away
From the ones who promised the world to me
But I opened my eyes & now can see
The truth unfolded as I lost my best friend
How could you take away her life in the end?
She was full of life, still can't sleep at night
Her departure left a void in me
Big enough for the whole world to see
Nothing but empty I became depressed
I wish you would've never been put to rest
I was only a kid, I never felt so lost
Wanting to die, no matter the cost
Tried to slit my wrists, tried to choke myself
Never felt love by anyone else
[Pre]
I overindulged in myself
Too stubborn to ask for help
Depression made me selfish & alone
But it taught me lessons I needed to know
[Hook]
I am the yin searching for my yang
[Verse 2]
Misery loves company so I put my hands into those who deceive
Searching for love in all the wrong places
Giving a piece of me to unfamiliar faces
Tried to fill the void inside of me
I thought that love would set me free
In the end I still felt empty
Knew there was something greater to be
[Pre]
I overindulged in myself
Too stubborn to ask for help
Depression made me selfish & alone
But it taught me lessons I needed to know
[Hook]
I am the yin searching for my yang
[Outro]
There's no doubt life is suffering
You must learn to detach from things
That mold your mind & expectations they yield
Learn to control the way you feel
There is no Heaven, nor a Hell
Don't believe them for what they tell
Is full of lies to manipulate
Your current & future mental state
I didn't always know what I do today
Took the scriptures from my heart & walked away
From the ones who promised the world to me
But I opened my eyes & now can see
The truth unfolded as I lost my best friend
How could you take away her life in the end?
She was full of life, still can't sleep at night
Her departure left a void in me
Big enough for the whole world to see
Nothing but empty I became depressed
I wish you would've never been put to rest
I was only a kid, I never felt so lost
Wanting to die, no matter the cost
Tried to slit my wrists, tried to choke myself
Never felt love by anyone else
[Pre]
I overindulged in myself
Too stubborn to ask for help
Depression made me selfish & alone
But it taught me lessons I needed to know
[Hook]
I am the yin searching for my yang
[Verse 2]
Misery loves company so I put my hands into those who deceive
Searching for love in all the wrong places
Giving a piece of me to unfamiliar faces
Tried to fill the void inside of me
I thought that love would set me free
In the end I still felt empty
Knew there was something greater to be
[Pre]
I overindulged in myself
Too stubborn to ask for help
Depression made me selfish & alone
But it taught me lessons I needed to know
[Hook]

[Outro]
There's no doubt life is suffering
You must learn to detach from things
That mold your mind & expectations they yield
Learn to control the way you feel
