Citizen Soldier
Feels Like a Funeral
[Verse 1]
Miracle, a heaven send, that's what they called her
Baby girl, but what's in mama's head, it ain't so wonderful
Hiding behind her smile, she doesn't know how to love her child
Tryin' to care for and console what turned her heart into a hole
[Chorus]
Sun still shining, people smiling
But it feels like a funeral, but it feels like a funeral
There's no reason for this grieving
But it feels like a funeral, but it feels like a funeral
[Post-Chorus]
(But it feels like a funeral)
[Verse 2]
2 AM, her child cries but she feels so indifferent
Her friends all try to fix her, but they're ignorant
Talking too much to hear, the reason she's dying to disappear
And escape the living hell of being strong for someone else
[Chorus]
Sun still shining, people smiling
But it feels like a funeral, but it feels like a funeral
There's no reason for this grieving
But it feels like a funeral, but it feels like a funeral
[Bridge]
Her family needs what she can’t be
And the guilt would kill, guilt would kill
If she could feel, she could feel
Her family needs what she can’t be
And the guilt would kill, guilt would kill
If she could feel
[Chorus]
Sun still shining, people smiling
But it feels like a funeral, but it feels like a funeral
No emotion, am I broken?
'Cause it feels like a funeral, 'cause it feels like a funeral
[Outro]
Her family needs what she can’t be
And the guilt would kill, guilt would kill
If she could feel
