i feel nothing

i feel nothing lyrics

Verse 1

they dimmed the lights like it's a big deal
mom's got the lighter, she's already crying a little
my sister's filming, I can see the red dot
I'm holding my hands in my lap like I'm not
somebody says make a wish, and I go blank
thirty-one years and I'm staring at a plate

Pre-Chorus

here it comes, here it comes
the cake's coming out, they all start to hum

Chorus

everyone's singing happy birthday to me
at the dinner table, and I feel nothing
I feel nothing
I feel nothing

Verse 2

I know where to look, I know when to smile
I've done it so long I can do it for a while
you're across from me, you've got your hand on my knee
you bought the good candles, I saw the receipt
you picked the place with the bread I like
and I'm sitting here counting how long till it's night

Pre-Chorus

here it comes, here it comes
they're clapping on the wrong beat, some

Chorus

they're all leaning in and the wax is running down
you're looking at me, and I feel nothing
I feel nothing
I feel nothing

Bridge

(just voice and piano)
I'm sorry
I should say it quiet, so I'll say it quiet
you did everything right
you did everything right and I just
sat here
I don't know where it went
I don't think it's you
I wish it was something I could point at

Pre-Chorus

here it comes, here it comes
I blow them out and I'm done

Chorus

everyone's saying make it come true
and you kiss my cheek, and I feel nothing
I feel nothing
I feel nothing
