Feel Like I Do
Drowning Pool Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And a brand new scar
So come along son
As we guess how far
Well I took at the first time (first time)
This time there won't be a next time
What kind of friend
If I stuck it out
I could give a goddamn
My eyes are open wide and I
Learned to hate what I found, yeah
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
(Hey, hey)
We all have it
(Hey, hey) yeah
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
I climb up sixteen chapels
And kick out every sixteenth stone
To keep another one from feeling so broken
To keep another one from feeling so torn
Ain't got a friend
Wouldn't bite my hand
If I stuck it out
I could give a goddamn
I tasted jaded talk and I
And I've grown to like it, yeah
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
(Hey, hey)
We all have it
(Hey, hey) yeah
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
Raise your hands, bring the hell
(Hey, hey) yeah
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
(Hey, hey)
We all have it
(Hey, hey) yeah
The love, the hate, regret
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring a hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream it loud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do, like we all do
The lyrics to Drowning Pool's song "Feel Like I Do" describe the emotional struggles and pain that the singer has gone through. The first verse talks about physical scars and pain, but also mentions taking a risk again, despite the past. The second verse has the singer questioning the loyalty of their friends and acknowledging the bitterness they have developed over time. The chorus calls out to fans, sharing the message that everyone experiences the same range of emotions and pain, encouraging them to raise their hands if they feel the same way.
The lyrics reflect a sense of isolation, suggesting that the pain and struggles they are experiencing are unique and that others cannot possibly understand, creating a sense of longing for connection or understanding. The last verse speaks to an act of rebellion, finding solace in breaking down structures, kicking out stones from a chapel, to prevent others from feeling the same way. The chorus is then repeated as a call to action, inviting listeners to join in the shared experience of pain and fear.
Overall, "Feel Like I Do" is an introspective, personal song with a message of solidarity and shared pain. The lyrics speak to the experience of feeling alone in one’s struggles and turning to others for support and understanding.

I got 2 bloody knees and a brand new scar
So come along son and ask me just how far
I took it the first time, this time
There won't be a next time
What kind of friend would bite my hand
If I stuck it out like I gave a god damn
My eyes are open wide and I, and I hate what I find
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it, we all have it
The love, the hate, regret
We all have it
Raise your hands if you feel like I do
Scream aloud if you feel like I do
Bring the hell if you feel like I do
Like you do
Like we all do
I'd climb up 16 chapels
And kick out every 16th stone
To keep another one from feeling so broken
To keep another one from feeling so torn
Ain't got a friend that wouldn't bite my hand
If I stuck it out like I gave a god damn
I tasted of jaded tongue and I, and I've grown to like it
