slaves of the feeling - clèrambault lyrics
[verse 1]
thought i could start over with a clean slate
but it turns there’s still so much on my plate
i could shed the layers but i can’t replace the original shape
when you try to escape your past, you re+do the steps
that’s the path to take
when you least expect, you’re back at this place
the more you make your way back, the further it gets
all the emotions you avoided
all the things that were left unspoken
”i know you’re scared to be open ’cause you’ve already been broken”, they say
but they don’t understand, do they?
i’m easily discouraged, a simple ”but” is all it takes
for me to walk away
i don’t wanna give my hopes up
but i’m just not cut out
the fear of missing love really gives you something to think about
and i’m sorry to the ones i’ve hurt trying to figure out
i say i wanna fall with my feet still stuck on the ledge
i think i think too much
are you just in my head?
[chorus]
how many arrows do i have left?
how many years of callow ’til i leave the nest?
why don’t i learn from my mistakes
how many times my heart will break before i win a battle
[verse 2]
house made of glass, you can see right through
i was the one to throw the first stone
when i came undone, they all knew
strung out in the long run
comfortably numb with my wide+open wound
so wild to think i was once not like this
in another lifetime, me and my inner crisis would co+exist in peace
now i can’t keep the storm from raging on
when the weather changed, it took all of my friends away
bitter it became the sweet sixteen
i still miss them every day but i can’t text or e+mail
that would mean i haven’t overcame
and how do you leave that baggage
when there’s so many precious items you still like it
but you can’t revive it
i don’t wanna sound traumatized, but then again, i am
and i’ve learned to live with the pain
but when it comes to rejection, i’m frightened
if you don’t play the game, there’s no chance of striking out
and all these failed attempts have worn me down
are you the one or just another one i’ll write a sad song about?
[pre+chorus]
letting down your guard it’s not a walk in the park
i know i’m a lot, it’s easy without the scars
don’t be alarmed if i open my heart
i don’t wanna pick you apart, sometimes i’m too much to take
[chorus]
how many arrows do i have left?
how many years of callow ’til i leave the nest?
why don’t i learn from my mistakes
how many times my heart will break before i win a battle
[bridge]
so hard to let go of our old selves
when time makes us face reality
i’m afraid this change of scenario will k!ll the memories
a couple years went by in the speed of light
and the sweet life we once knew it’s gone for good
sometimes when you walk in my shoes, you just wanna be barefoot
people come and go, i stay alone
these days i don’t know who to trust
are you for real or am i making this up?
[outro]
don’t be alarmed if i open my heart
i don’t wanna pick you apart, sometimes i’m too much to take
but i hope you can stay
