Christmas eve I'm walking through a crowded shopping mall
I'm overwhelmed with ridiculous emptiness all around
It seeps into me, reflects the life I've led
All I feel is dead dead dead
I know that you deserve so much more from me
You're not gonna find the truth in suburban apathy
So I search in books and movies
Play my favorite songs again
Just trying to get back, get back to the way it felt back then
I don't care if I'm singing through tears
I just wanna feel
I don't care if these wounds never heal
I just wanna feel
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Cause I just wanna feel
I know I'm not above manufacturing this
I can fake a smile, turn it on for the audience
I'm so desensitized, anesthetized, sold out to these lies
I wanna dig deep
Pull out something real
I don't care if I'm singing through tears
I just wanna feel
I don't care if these wounds never heal
I just wanna feel
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Cause I just wanna feel
I don't care if I'm singing through tears
I just wanna feel
I don't care if these wounds never heal
I just wanna feel
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Take this hard heart, make it softer now
Cause I just wanna feel
