it's been three years since i've felt a thing
kinda hard to smile with broken wedding rings
life has changed a lot since back then
but i'm still at a loss, can you teach me again?

i don't know how to deal with my problems
they keep on coming and i never solve them
i don't know how to handle my hurt
and i end up making it even worse

it's sad that i don't know how to be sad
and at first it doesn't sound so bad
but you can't just pick and choose
you either feel nothing, or it's everything you lose

i know how edgy it sounds when i say, i don't know what happiness feels like
but take a walk in my shoes, run around in my life, and i bet you'll change your mind
sure, i don't have to worry 'bout the little things that can hurt
but if it means i have to sacrifice my happiness- don't you think that's worse?

you make me feel a way that i haven't felt in years
like maybe there's a reason i should care
you make me want to get out of the bed
starting the day smiling instead
you make me think that life deserves a shot
and i'm sorry to say, you're the only one i've got
i know i'm broken and have some flaws
but i can change, just like i did back then
'cause i didn't know who i really was
and now you can teach me how to feel again

i saw you hugging some girl today
it almost hurt, but i pushed it away
i didn't know how to control the pain
i don't know who else i can blame

i know how dramatic i seem, when i tell you i feel nothing
but slap me across the face, call me names, and you'll see that i'm still the same
sure, it's pretty easy to get over shit
but a life like this isn't a life worth living- please tell me this can't be it

you make me feel a way that i haven't felt in years
like maybe there's a reason i should care
you make me want to get out of the bed
starting the day smiling instead
you make me think that life deserves a shot
and i'm sorry to say, you're the only one i've got
i know i'm broken and have some flaws
but i can change, just like i did back then
'cause i didn't know who i really was
and now you can teach me how to feel again

i hate being vulnerable and i get too defensive
and it leads me to this pattern of condescension
i need to learn that it's okay to be weak
that shedding tears ain't as bad as it seems
'cause maybe if i find some light in my life
you'd consider being a part of mine

you make me feel, and i haven't in years
you give me a reason to care
you make me think that life deserves a shot
and i'm sorry to say, you're all i want
i keep on waiting, you just tell me when
you'll teach me how to feel again.
