I Wanna Feel Something

If youre tellin me Im not on fire

Youre just preachin to the choir

Ive gotten dull as old barbed wire from livin

Last night I watched the evening news

It was the same ol nothin new

It should have cut me right in two

But it didnt

I dont know why it didnt

But I wanna feel somethin

Somethin thats a real somethin

That moves me, that proves to me Im still alive

I wanna heart that beats and bleeds

A heart thats bustin at the seams

I wanna care, I wanna cry, I wanna scream

I just wanna feel somethin

If youre tellin me thats just how it is

I dont buy it cause once I was kissed

By a red-headed girl with cherry lips

On her porch when I was sixteen

And I felt it somewhere in my soul and time stood still and I couldnt let go

I cant tell you cause I dont know how I got so cold

When did I get so cold

I just wanna feel somethin

Somethin that's real, somethin'

That moves me, that proves to me I'm still alive

Run my fingers through your fingers, across your face and through your hair

And close my eyes and breathe you in like air

I just wanna feel somethin

I hate that Im jaded and I make you cry

But still you stick around me, only God knows why

Damn it all to hell, Im done

Cause I dont like what Ive become

So come here, baby

Come here, baby

I just wanna feel somethin

Somethin that's real, somethin'

That moves me, that proves to me I'm still alive

Run my fingers through your fingers, across your face and through your hair

And close my eyes and breathe you in like air

I just wanna feel somethin

Come here, baby
