Everything Feels Wrong
Echoes of Longing: Unveiling the Emotional Landscape of 'Everything Feels Wrong'
Lyrics
I've been hanging out in the boredom basement
I've been spending time in a dull and uninteresting place
Building up the files on my MP3
Collecting music files on my MP3 player
Homemade rockets and a load of laundry --
Engaging in mundane tasks like launching homemade rockets and doing laundry
It's been a real party ever since you set me free
Life has been a bit of a celebration since you ended our relationship
Everyone says it's better now that you're gone
Common opinion suggests that things have improved since you left
They say that I'm cool, they tell me I'm strong
People compliment my composure and strength
So how come everything feels wrong?
Despite the positive feedback, everything still feels wrong
I took all the money that I won at the table
I used the money I won at the table for something
I've been killing myself trying to keep my mind off of you
I've been struggling to distract myself from thoughts of you
Got another record and a phat tattoo
Acquired a new record and a significant tattoo
Everybody says, "Hey whatcha gonna do now?"
Others inquire about my plans and decisions
Everyone says it's better now that you're gone
Public opinion claims life is better without you
Well maybe everyone is wrong
Expressing doubt about this widespread belief
They say that I'm cool, they tell me I'm strong
Despite being perceived as cool and strong, something feels wrong
Telling myself it's better since you've been gone
Convincing myself that life has improved post-breakup
Everyday I'm alone and everyday's long
Every day feels lengthy and lonely
So how come everything feels wrong?
Despite efforts, everything still feels wrong
How could you let me go?
Questioning why you let me go
After it took so long to find me?
After a long search to find me, you ended our relationship
That everything's wrong and it's become plain
Realization that everything is wrong has become evident
Take back your radio -- all of these stupid songs remind me
Asking to take back reminders like the radio playing our shared songs
Even if I am strong, we'll never be the same
Even if I am strong, the relationship can never be the same
Everybody says, "Hey, whatcha gonna do now, babe?"
Others inquire about my actions, but thoughts of you persist
Well, I've done it all and still I am thinking of you
Despite trying everything, I still think about you
So don't tell me I'm cool and say that I'm strong
Rejecting the notion of being cool and strong
Everyone thinks it's better now that you're gone
Public perception is that life is better without you
Well I think everyone is wrong
Disagreeing with the popular belief
Cause everyday I'm alone and everyday's long
Every day feels long and lonely, contradicting the supposed improvement
Telling myself it's better since you've been gone
Convincing myself that life is better without you
So how come everything feels wrong?
Despite efforts, everything still feels wrong
