Have You Ever

(album: Ollie Ollie Oxen Free - 2021)

Have you ever
Ever felt this way
Have you ever
Every single day
Do you ever
Stop and say
Never ever
No not today

All alone here flipping through this page
Reconstructing all the notes I've made
A simple scrapbook of the things I've said
In the moment rewind it all instead
Does it seem fair? Are you just testing me?
Not thinking clear and that's clear to see
Well that's the price you pay when you're me
When you're me

Have you ever
Ever felt this way
Have you ever
Every single day
Do you ever
Stop and say
Never ever
All I can say is that
I'm in too deep
Drowning in sinking sand
Not gonna hold my breath
Not sure you understand
I've had it up to here
You finally got your way
Have you ever?
No not today

I've been walking blind, hard enough to see
The only one I don't believe in is me
Longing for peace in this circumstance
Dancing on my own in this hourglass
Caving in here, hope I land on my feet
Not thinking clearly and that's clear to see
Well that's the price you pay when you're me
When you're me

Have you ever
Ever felt this way
Have you ever
Every single day
Do you ever
Stop and say
Never ever
Right from the start I know
I'm in too deep
Drowning in sinking sand
Not gonna hold my breath
Not sure you understand
I've had it up to here
You finally got your way
Have you ever?
No not today

Have you ever
Ever felt this way
Have you ever
Every single day
Do you ever
Stop to say
Never ever
Never ever

Have you ever
Ever felt this way
Have you ever
Every single day
Have you ever
Slipped away
Never ever
No not today
