[Refrain/Chorus]

I have never

I have never

I have never felt this way before

I have never felt this way before

[Verse 1]

Infatuation

Completely overwhelmed and overcome

Sent into a stupor by the sound of the drum

Repetition of the rhythm regulates how my mind flows

In cycles

Moving in and out like the tide goes

Until I’m totally engrossed by every notе

Swimming in the sea of sound waves

Tryna stay afloat

Manеuvering in a vessel composed of flesh and bone

The sound of waves crashing produces the metronome

Navigating a body of water

Tryna find my way

It’s hard to find the words to say when everything is gray

But a ray of hope shines to keep the clouds at bay

And provides a light by which I write these lyrics

Helping me to find my way

A purpose, a meaning, a guide

A third eye light beaming from a lighthouse inside of the mind

I’m trying to find direction

But I look over the edge and all I see is my own reflection

So I look inward

As my obsession grows and reaches from the depths of the ocean to the coast and the sandy beaches

My conscience leeches onto that single ray of hope

But no matter how hard I’m trying

I keep finding myself in the same boat

The same boat

The same boat

The same boat

The same boat

The same boat

[Verse 2]

Fixation absorbed in an ocean of thought

Yet at times I can’t help but feeling it might be all for naught

With so much work I put into progressing on my journey

I’m worried

My destination seems unclear and blurry

I feel stuck without a paddle on the high seas

I send this message in a bottle, hoping somebody will find me

And finally my word will be spread

Instead of finding the irony of me on a lifeboat left for dead

My music will be heard if it kills me

Even if I reach my destination ragged and filthy

I will be triumphant on my quest nonetheless

I’m hard pressed by hardships, sailing in the depths

When will I reach the shore? I’m unsure

Wondering just how much punishment I can endure

But no matter how much it hurts, I find myself wanting more

And I have never felt this way before

[Chorus/Refrain]

I have never felt this way before

Swimming in a sea of sound waves

Swimming in a sea of sound waves

Swimming in a sea of sound waves

Swimming in a sea of sound waves

So here I am

Alone again

This pain rides with me ’til the end

I find myself still wanting more

I’ve never felt this way before

So here I am

Alone again

This pain rides with me ’til the end

I find myself still wanting more

I’ve never felt this way before

I never felt this way before

I’ve never felt this way before

I never felt this way before

I’ve never felt this way before

I have never

I have never

I have never felt this way before
