Emotional

My emotions are much bigger than me
I try to keep them in, but they spill out eventually
Flooding and dragging me into the ground
And they can’t even see what keeps me down
You can’t even see how you’ve hurt me now
Oh
You can’t even see you’ve hurt me now

Every comment cuts a little more
You’re joking that I’m crazy
but that’s how you made me
You love that I’m insecure
Holding back on the loving
So I’ll take your nothing
and I don’t deserve more

The current gets stronger and stronger
Increasing in violence every day
Those dams won’t last much longer
Better run higher or be swept away

My emotions are much bigger than me
I try to keep them in, but they spill out eventually
Flooding and dragging me into the ground
And they can’t even see what keeps me down
You can’t even see how you’ve hurt me now
Oh
You can’t even see how you’ve hurt me now

Paying attention is a chore, I guess
And a woman is more fit
For chores than her husband
Do the dishes and sweep the floors
I keep it tidy
To then kiss you nightly
And I don’t deserve more

The current gets stronger and stronger
Increasing in violence every day
Those dams won’t last much longer
Better run higher or be swept away

My emotions are much bigger than me
I try to keep them in, but they spill out eventually
Flooding and dragging me into the ground
And they won’t even see what keeps me down
You can’t even see how you’ve hurt me now
Oh
You can’t even see how you’ve hurt us now

You want me to just lay here
With my legs wide open
So you can walk all over
Or decide to take me
No agency
If you don’t wake me up
So don’t wake me up
I think I’ve woken up
I think I’ve had enough

My emotions are much bigger than me
When you try to keep me, I spill out eventually
Flooding and dragging you into the ground
Make them see how you’ve hurt me now
You will feel how you’ve hurt me now
Oh
My emotions will bury you in the ground
