"Rabbit In A Headlight" lyrics

"Rabbit In A Headlight"

I recall many years ago
When I was living in a bubble - a eutopia
Running 'round the city
And absorbing every little bit of
Ecstasy, young and free, happy

Looking back, I was so invincible
And nothing was impossible - I tried it all
No fear of repercussions
Every night an introduction
To somebody new, I could do no wrong

Like a fossil
I've been living underground
Hoping I'll be found someday
Don't take a genius
To figure this out
I'm drowning in this doubt of mine

I don't feel right, I don't feel right
(I don't feel right, I don't feel right)
Like a rabbit in a headlight
(Like a rabbit in a headlight)
I don't feel right, I don't feel right in myself

Every day, I'd wake up in the morning
Never knowing in the evening what I'd be doing
A liberating feeling
When there isn't any structure
To define your time, mine was mine, always

Rose-tinted - I know that's what you're thinking
And believe me I remember all the bad times too
I wrote this song as therapy
Concluding that primarily
I've done my thing; how do I bring the old me back

Like a fossil
I've been living underground
Hoping I'll be found someday
Don't take a genius
To figure this out
I'm drowning in this doubt of mine

I don't feel right, I don't feel right
I don't feel right, I don't feel right
Like a rabbit in a headlight
(Like a rabbit in a headlight)
I don't feel right, I don't feel right in myself

I don't feel a thing
No euphoria
It don't mean a thing
In this rabbit hole

Like a fossil
I've been living underground
Hoping I'll be found someday
Don't take a genius
To figure this out
I'm drowning in this doubt of mine

I don't feel right, I don't feel right
(I don't feel right, I don't feel right)
Like a rabbit in a headlight
(Like a rabbit in a headlight)
I don't feel right, I don't feel right in myself
