Feelings up and feelings down
Feelings going all around
First I cry and then I laugh
And then I go and have a bath
And hope to drown the hurt or sad
Anything that is not good or glad.
Feelings spike, then plummet down
And I feel hammered in the ground
And wish that they would let me be
But no feelings would be worse I see
I'd be numb, and feel alone
Even when I was at home.
Feelings too high all the time
Would burn me out -- I'd not feel fine.
Feelings too low hurt me too
So what is it that I should do?
Roller coasters are kind of fun
But their ups and downs would soon be done.
I try to hold my feelings up
But they seem to drip from a leaky cup
Until they have fallen on the ground
And there is no help that can be found.
What will I do? I am not sure.
For feelings it seems there is no cure.
I think I'll make feelings my friend.
Fighting does not seem to make them end!
When they go up, I'll go with them
We'll laugh and joke like real best friends.
When they go down then I will hold them close
And listen with love if they get verbose.
And when they are steady for a while
I'll thank them kindly, with a smile.
