Metaphors Lyrics by Chief State

2021

Her words still ringing in my head
“I wish you’d stop wishing you were dead
Get it together, we gotta stick together
You know I’d do whatever to help make you feel better.”
I just can’t quite figure out what’s wrong
There’s no place I feel like I belong
I don’t feel anything, anymore

Heavy chains shackle me to my bed
I can’t get up
I can see another breakdown coming
So sick and tired so I’ll just do nothing at all
Complacency sets in, I’ve heard it all before
I’m sick of wasting my time
Looking through photos online

Thesе days
Every word I try to say
Is cloaked in metaphor
I don’t feel anything, anymorе

It’s been weeks since I’ve accomplished anything
You’re the only thing I look forward to
I know that that’s not fair to you
I lock myself away in my room
I can’t move, I’m starving, exhausted
Facetious, so stagnant

These days
Every word I try to say
Is cloaked in metaphor
I don’t feel anything, anymore
I don’t
Feel like myself here anymore
I don’t feel anything
No I don’t feel anything, anymore

I just can’t blame this on the season
There’s a reason
That I don’t care about anything
I forgot to thank you for listening
I’m paralyzed and I can’t figure out why
I don’t feel anything, anymore

These days
Every word I try to say
Is cloaked in metaphor
I don’t feel anything, anymore
I don’t
Feel like myself here anymore
I don’t feel anything
No I don’t feel anything, anymore
