What Happened To Emotion?
Forever the Sickest Kids Lyrics

Yeah, we're young but for how much longer?
We are aware that we are still young, but we are uncertain about how long this period of youth will last.

We've been caving in under all the pressure,
We have been struggling and giving in to the many challenges and expectations placed upon us.

All for time.
All of our efforts and sacrifices are being made for the sake of time, whether it be to meet deadlines or to achieve success before it's too late.

You're cynical and kinda crazy,
You are often negative and have tendencies that make you seem unstable or irrational.

And honestly we've been contemplating why we even try.
We have been questioning whether our efforts are even worth it, given the difficulties and obstacles we face.

You're killing me, killing me, killing me slow.
Your behavior or actions are causing me great emotional pain and distress, and it feels like a slow and painful process.

And I don't even, don't even, don't even know.
I am completely unaware or uncertain about the specific things you are doing that are causing me harm.

If you really knew me you would let me go
If you truly understood me and cared about my well-being, you would release me from the harm and pain you are causing me.

And you're cutting me, cutting me, cutting me down
Your words or actions are lowering my self-esteem and confidence, making me feel smaller and less important.

And you're wearing me, wearing me, wearing me out
You are draining me of my energy and strength, making it difficult for me to keep going or resist your negativity.

And the songs that we're singing
The things we express or create through our art or music,

The point of our feeling
The purpose or intention behind the emotions we experience and communicate,

What happened to emotion?
We are questioning what has caused us to lose our sense of emotional depth or authenticity.

I'd make amends if it made things better
I am open to reconciling and repairing our relationship if it would result in a positive change or outcome.

We give, you take with such little effort
We are constantly putting forth effort to contribute and improve, while you seem to benefit without exerting much effort in return.

Sure I'm passive but you're aggressive
I tend to be more passive or calm, while you are aggressive or confrontational in your behavior or attitude.

And I honestly can't be tolerating it anymore
I have reached my limit and can no longer tolerate the negative or harmful behavior or attitudes you exhibit.

Hands up 'cause I'm jumping off this train
I am putting my hands up in surrender, indicating my willingness to let go and move on from this situation or relationship.

I'm giving up and I hope It's not too late
I am conceding and abandoning my efforts to maintain or improve the situation or relationship, but I am still optimistic about the future.

I'm taking back, taking back what I said
I am retracting or withdrawing things I may have said or promised previously, and taking them back for myself.

'Cause I'm done, I'm done pretending
I have reached a point where I no longer want to pretend or act like things are okay when they are not.

'Cause I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna change
Despite the difficulties and challenges involved, I am not willing to give up or change who I am or what I believe in.

I'm never gonna stop, never gonna change
I am committed to staying true to myself and my values, and will not let others change me or bring me down.

We're never gonna stop, never gonna change
As a group or community, we are all committed to staying true to our values and not letting negative influences or forces change us.
