FEEL
Travis Garland Lyrics

Is it too late for saving me now?
I may have gone too far and there might be no chance of me being redeemed, baby

It might be, baby
The possibility of it being too late exists, baby

All I know is that this won’t be
I am aware that I have let you down before, and it probably won't be the last time

Last time that I let you down
Referring to a previous occasion when the artist has disappointed their partner

But I’m trying, girl I swear
Despite struggling to make amends, he is sincerely doing his best to improve

I wanna feel
The singer has an intense desire to experience some kind of emotion/feeling

Something, something
Anything that can provide a sense of emotional satisfaction or fulfillment

(We’ll be getting by, chasing every high, tell me something)
The artist needs a temporary escape or distraction from their problems, so they're seeking out anything to feel better

Just make me feel
The artist is pleading for someone or something to ignite an emotional response within them

In my veins

Nothing but acids now
Referring to an uncomfortable sensation or feeling, maybe anxiety, excitement or nervousness

Burning flame

Til you came in but went out
When the individual the singer is addressing came into their life and then left

And now your love, it’s gone away
The person these lyrics are directed at was once loved, but the feelings have since disappeared

Some say he’s something like a murderer
Possibly addressing rumors that have been spread about the singer. His reputation may have been damaged or he has a history of inflicting emotional harm on others.

Love er, never heard of er
The artist is denying, that they are capable of being or ever having been in love.

She ain’t heard of me so I’m never holding a calendar
If someone doesn't know enough about him, then he has no reason to be held accountable for anything

But she want me to watch how I handle her
His actions are being closely scrutinized, and he is being told to be more cautious in how he interacts with her.

But when you ain’t looking you just live with the damaged
If he doesn't feel attention is being paid to his behavior, he thinks there won't be consequences for any harm he may cause

Boot off the stage like an amateur
A metaphorical symbol to describe feeling judged or rejected publicly and overcome by the experience

No experience in front of the cameras
The artist is lacking confidence or experience in public performance, e.g., shows, presentations.

It’s cut both, beat it from the heart like what
The artist has been emotionally hurt in the past and wonders how to cope with it

Am I hit? Must be the Novocain 'cause I don’t feel shit
Possibly saying he is used to the pain and doesn't feel it anymore

Cooper’s got a gun and that nigga won’t quit
Metaphorical message describing how difficult it is to overcome a particular problem in his life

Ain’t even full but I have enough of it
Referring to an emotional void, and despite not having enough, it seems like too much to handle at times.

So I split, I’m on a fence with 2
He split from a particular situation, and he is trying to choose between two options that he is evaluating

It’s full a top down like screw
Referring to a sense of being stuck, scattered or unable to move forward with confidence

Enjoy the view, 'cause when it’s all said and done no level is your final one of violence
Reflecting on the appreciation of appearance, the lyrics imply that you never know how far love will go, escalate or hurt you in the end.

Wanna feel something, feel something

Tryna feel something

Anything
Something that can provide a form of emotional relief, no matter what that relief may be

Just make me feel
