I'm Not Feeling It Anymore

(album: Carrying A Torch - 1991)

Have to get back, have to get back the base
I need to talk to somebody, I can trust
Too many cooks, are trying to spoil the broth
I can't feel it in my throat, that's all she wrote
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
Not feeling it no more, not feeling it anymore
When I was high at the party, everything looked good
I was seeing through rose coloured glasses
Not seeing the wood for the trees
I started out in normal operation
But I just ended up in doubt
All my drinking buddies, they locked me out
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
No feeling it no more, I'm trying to give you the score
You see me up there baby, I'm on the screen
But I know better now, it's so unreal
If this is success, then something's awful wrong
'Cause I bought the dream and I had to play along
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
I'm trying to give you the score, I'm not feeling it no more
We all know that money, don't buy you love
You just get a job and somewhere to live
You have to look for happiness, within yourself
And don't go chasing thinking that it is somewhere else
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
Baby I'm trying to give you the score,
I'm not feeling it no more
I was pretending all the time
I was giving everybody what they wanted
And I lost my peace of mind
And all I ever wanted was simply just to be me
All you ever need is the truth
And the truth will set you free
I'm not feeling it no more, I'm not feeling it anymore
I'm trying to give
