Feel Like Me
Cassius Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you go away
I won't be following
Though I know
Though I know
Exactly where you'll be going
My hands are tied
Through the begging
I try, I try to run the race
But we've already hit the finish

Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
(I think we are doing better then we ever been
Ever been, ever been, oh-oh-oh)
(Why don't we start it over do it all again
All again, all again, oh-oh-oh)

A storm, this storm feels like me
Let me go
Let me be somebody
Let me go
A storm, this storm feels like me
This storm, this storm, feels like
Someday from my lonely room
I just think of you
Don't pull me back to you
Don't pull me back to you

Let me go
Let me go
Let me be somebody
(I think we are doing better then we ever been
Ever been, ever been, oh-oh-oh)
Let me be someone
Let me go
Why this storm, this storm
(Why don't we start it over do it all again
All again, all again, oh-oh-oh)
Don't feel like me
Don't feel like, don't feel like me
(I think we are doing better then we ever been
Ever been, ever been, oh-oh-oh)
This storm, this storm feels like me
Let me go
This storm, feels like me

(I think we are doing better then we ever been
Ever been, ever been, oh-oh-oh)
(Why don't we start it over do it all again
All again, all again, oh-oh-oh)




(Why don't we start it over do it all again
All again, all again, oh-oh-oh)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Cassius's song Feel Like Me describe a situation in which the singer is at a crossroads, trying to make a decision about a relationship. The singer knows that the person they are involved with is leaving and although they know exactly where they are going, they will not follow them. The singer's hands are tied and they try to beg the other person to stay, but deep down they know that the relationship has reached an endpoint.


The chorus of the song is a plea from the singer to be let go and to be somebody new, somebody without the baggage of the past. The storm that is being referred to in the chorus is a metaphor for the turmoil and unrest that the singer is feeling. The storm feels like them because it represents the turmoil in their heart, as they try to decide whether to hold on or let go.


The song is a powerful message about the struggle of letting go and moving on. It captures the feeling of being trapped in a cycle of emotions and the need to break free and start over. Cassius delivers the song in a haunting and emotional manner that perfectly complements the lyrics.

When you go away
When you leave me


I won't be following
I won't try to stop you or chase after you


Though I know
Even though I am aware


Though I know
Even though I am aware


Exactly where you'll be going
Of exactly where you'll be heading


My hands are tied
I am unable to do anything


Through the begging
Despite my attempts to plead


I try, I try to run the race
I try to compete, to win you over


But we've already hit the finish
But the relationship has already ended


Let me go
Allow me to move on


Let me be somebody
Let me become someone new and different


(I think we are doing better then we ever been
I believe I am happier now than before


Ever been, ever been, oh-oh-oh)


(Why don't we start it over do it all again
Why don't we try again, from the beginning


All again, all again, oh-oh-oh)


A storm, this storm feels like me

Someday from my lonely room
When I am alone


I just think of you
You are always on my mind


Don't pull me back to you
Don't try to bring me back into the relationship


Let me be someone
Let me become someone new


Why this storm, this storm
Why does this turbulence exist


Don't feel like me
I want to move away from my old self


Don't feel like, don't feel like me
I want to leave behind who I used to be


This storm, this storm feels like me
This storm reflects who I am


This storm, feels like me
This storm is a representation of myself
