Human Heart
Navigating the Emotional Rapids: Elise Hayes' 'Human Heart' Insights
Lyrics
Wish that I could turn it off
Expressing a desire to control or turn off emotions
But I got emotions like a waterfall
Comparing emotions to a waterfall, indicating their intensity
I swear even when I'm feeling strong
Even in moments of strength, there's vulnerability in the voice
My voice kinda shakes when I start to talk
Voice shaking when expressing emotions
Is there a line that I need to walk
Questioning the path to navigate between being tough and soft
Try to be harder, try to be soft
Struggling to find the right balance
I know there's gotta be a sweet spot
Searching for a sweet spot in managing emotions
Looking for balance but I get lost
Expressing difficulty in finding balance, feeling lost
Does anybody else feel
Asking if others share the same emotional experiences
Like sometimes it's too real
Feeling overwhelmed by the realness of emotions
Build these walls up in my head
Creating mental barriers as a coping mechanism
but I got a wrecking ball in my chest
Having a powerful force within causing emotional turmoil
and it breaks me down, and i get messed up
Breaking down emotionally, struggling to cope
Try to cry it out, but it's never enough
Attempting to release emotions through crying, but it's insufficient
'Cause it beats to fast and I feel too much
Heartbeat too fast, feeling emotions intensely
Damn it's hard having a human heart
Expressing the difficulty of having a human heart
It's a double edged sword
Describing emotions as a double-edged sword
Laid out in the diaries in my dresser drawer
Referencing personal struggles written in diaries
Brings me up high throws me to the floor
Emotions lifting and then crashing down
Think I get it out but there's always more
Struggling to fully express and deal with emotions
and I've learned to call it what it is
Labeling sensitivity as it is, acknowledging it
cnother case of being sensitive
Recognizing sensitivity as a recurring challenge
Me and my thoughts are in a bitter war
Internal conflict with thoughts and emotions
Replaying it all from the night before
Replaying and dwelling on past events
Does anybody else feel
Asking if others experience the same overwhelming reality
Like sometimes it's too real
Feeling the intensity of reality
Build these walls up in my head
Constructing mental walls for protection
but I got a wrecking ball in my chest
Powerful force within causing emotional chaos
and it breaks me down, and i get messed up
Struggling and breaking down emotionally
Try to cry it out, but it's never enough
Attempting to release emotions through crying, but it's insufficient
'Cause it beats to fast and I feel too much
Heartbeat too fast, feeling emotions intensely
Damn it's hard having a human heart
Reiterating the difficulty of having a human heart
Oh, it's keeping me alive
Acknowledging that the human heart keeps one alive
But sometimes I swear it's killing me at the same time
Highlighting the paradox of the heart being both life-sustaining and challenging
Does anybody else feel
Asking if others experience the same overwhelming reality
Like sometimes it's too real
Feeling the intensity of reality
Build these walls up in my head
Constructing mental walls for protection
but I got a wrecking ball in my chest
Powerful force within causing emotional chaos
and it breaks me down, and i get messed up
Struggling and breaking down emotionally
Try to cry it out, but it's never enough
Attempting to release emotions through crying, but it's insufficient
'Cause it beats to fast and I feel too much
Heartbeat too fast, feeling emotions intensely
Damn it's hard having a human heart
Reiterating the difficulty of having a human heart
