Like I used to
I wanna feel something,
And I know something is there
I remember faint glimpses
But i cant seem to recall
It wasnt an emotion
It was but a combination and convulsion of it
I wanna feel something,
I dont wanna feel pain though
I remember pain vividly, like a memory
A memory of people
A swarthing thought of anger and rage
It doesnt hurt me physically now
But it still hurts, curdling under the surface
I wanna feel something,
I dont wanna feel lonely
Loneliness is an emotion
The only one I can truly recall
It doesnt hurt, but it stings
I wasnt alone physically all the time,
The words they said, they made me feel alone
I wanna feel something,
I wanna feel the joy of being with someone
Of joking with friends,
Of even having friends
The joy of being happy, every once in awhile
But i can't, because the burden of hurting
It weighs upon my shoulders, like the world to the titan Atlas
Like a bullet to the head
Like happiness to me before i forgot
I wanna feel something,
Like I used to
