Feelin'
Adam & Eve & The Hush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know, that creeping', that's deep, dark and found down below
It shakes me, deflates me
Makes me feel like I'm spinnin' out of control
Demons dancin' on my soul
It's the Devil dealin'
Slyly stealin' by freezin' sparks and drownin' all hope
It takes me, forsakes me
Trippin', I stumble back home
Ooh, then I think things through
Strum some tunes
Better feelin' soon
Music heals my wounds
Ooh, then I think things through
Strum some tunes
Better feelin' soon
Music heals my wounds
Music gave me meanin'
From 13 when I felt that spark light fire down below
It shapes me, escapes me
Takes the real world and spins it back into control
Now demons dance 'til I damn-well say so
Ooh, then I think things through
Strum some tunes
Better feelin' soon
Music heals my wounds

You know, that creeping', that's deep, dark and found down below
You are aware of that gradual, intense, ominous feeling deep within
It shakes me, deflates me

From 13 when I felt that spark light fire down below
Since the age of 13, when I felt that initial inspiration ignite deep within

It molds me, evades me
Takes the real world and spins it back into control
Reclaims authority over the tangible world, restoring order
Now demons dance 'til I damn-well say so
Now, the inner struggles only occur when I allow them
