Feelings
The Offspring Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing more than feelings
Trying to forget my
Feelings of hate
Imagine
Beating on your face
Trying to forget my
Feelings
For all my life i'll feel it
I wish I'd never met you
You'll make me sick again
Feelings, oh oh feelings
Of hate on my mind
Feelings
Feelings like I never liked you
Feelings like I want to kill you
Live in my heart
Feelings
Feelings like I want to deck you
Feelings like I've gotta get you
Out of my life
Feelings, oh oh feelings
The hate's in my eyes
Feelings, oh oh feelings
You're not very nice
In "Feelings" by The Offspring, the lyrics express intense feelings of hatred towards someone. The songwriter's rage is so strong that they imagine beating the person's face in. The lyrics repeatedly express that the songwriter wishes they had never met the person because they make them feel sick. The feelings of hate are said to "live in my heart" and dominate the songwriter's thoughts. The refrain of "Feelings, oh oh feelings" highlights the power of these emotions and how hard it is to escape them.

I took a sign language class in 6th grade, and our final exam was to choose a song and perform it in front of the class. Since this was one of the few albums I owned, and this was the easiest to translate, I performed it in front of my entire class. I NAILED IT. My teacher found the song offensive and gave me an F. The lecture she gave me about how violent this song is, in front of all my peers (including the prettiest girls in the class), still haunts me.
