Hayley Kiyoko - Feelings
[Intro]
(Feelings)
[Verse 1]
I walk through this world, just tryna be nice
They say I'll get hurt, if I'm not like ice
I know I've got friends, I still get so lonely
If I look in your eyes, I’ll want you to hold me
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm sorry that I care, care
I'm sorry that I care, care
It's really not that fair, fair
I can't help but care
[Chorus]
I over-communicate and feel too much
I just complicate it when I say too much
I laugh about it, dream about that casual touch
Sex is fire, sick and tired of acting all tough
I'm hooked on all these feelings
I know exactly what I'm feelin'
This love asylum, like an island, just me and you
Spent the night, you got me high
Oh, what did you do?
I'm hooked on all these feelings
[Verse 2]
Caught up inside, both happy and lonely
Keep telling me lies, they're killing me slowly
I get too attached, they don't even know me
Why can't I relax? Why can't I relax?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm sorry that I care, care
I'm sorry that I care, care
It's really not that fair, fair
I can't help but care
[Chorus]
I over-communicate and feel too much
I just complicate it when I say too much
I laugh about it, dream about that casual touch
Sex is fire, sick and tired of acting all tough
I'm hooked on all these feelings
I know exactly what I'm feelin'
This love asylum, like an island, just me and you
Spent the night, you got me high
Oh, what did you do?
I'm hooked on all these feelings
[Bridge]
I'm hooked on all these feelings
I know exactly what I'm feelin'
I'm sorry that I care, care
It's really not that fair
[Chorus]
I over-communicate and feel too much
I just complicate it when I say too much
I laugh about it, dream about that casual touch
Sex is fire, sick and tired of acting all tough
I'm hooked on all these feelings
I know exactly what I'm feelin'
This love asylum, like an island, just me and you
Spent the night, you got me high
Oh, what did you do?
I'm hooked on all these feelings
"Feelings" is the second track on American singer and songwriter Hayley Kiyoko's debut album, Expectations. The song was released with a music video as the second single on October 19, 2017. “It started off with me just being frustrated with having people make me feel like I needed to be ashamed of feeling. It's kind of like, enjoying this single life, dating world. As soon as you feel it’s like, ‘Oh gosh. You can’t feel. How dare you?’ And I was like, ‘Wow. That’s really messed up.’ And I wanted to write a song about that because if you listen to the lyrics verbatim, it’s exactly how I feel. I over-communicate, I feel too much. That’s who I am. Why can’t I just be myself, and why do I have to be ashamed of that?” - Hayley Kiyoko in an interview with Billboard magazine
