I wanna feel something

If you're telling me I'm not on fire
You're just preaching to the choir
I've gotten dull as old barbed wire from living
Last night I watched the evening news
It was the same ol' nothing new
It should have cut me right in two
But it didn't
I don't know why it didn't

But I wanna feel something
Something that's a real something
That moves me, that proves to me I'm still alive
I wanna heart that beats and bleeds
A heart that's busting at the seams
I wanna care, I wanna cry, I wanna scream
I just wanna feel something

If you're telling me that's just how it is
I don't 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 couldn't let go
I can't tell you cause I don't know how I got so cold
When did I get so cold

I just wanna feel something
Something that's a real something
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 something

I hate that I'm jaded and I make you cry
But still you stick around me, only God knows why
Damn it all to hell, I'm done
Cause I don't like what Ive become
So come here, baby
Come here, baby

Trace Adkins, Dangerous Man

This came up on my song shuffle this evening and some of the lyrics hit me hard. I feel like the best parts of me have been shut down for a long time. When did I get so cold? Well, we know the answer to that.

I'm melting, I'm melting. Oh what a world. :-)

Merry Part and Blessed Be
