To Hear: I Wanna Feel Somethin’

Posted on | May 19, 2008 |

Have you ever felt numbed out of life? It’s too much sometimes with talk of the never-ending presidential race, the war, recession, meeting life’s demands… well, it makes you just want to scream or sigh.

Country singer Trace Adkins, Donald Trumps latest Celebrity Apprentice finalist, sings this passionate song to empathize with you when you feel you have to hear your heart beat once more.

Maybe you can relate.

“I Wanna Feel Something”
Trace Adkins (c) 2006

If you’re tellin me I’m not on fire
You’re just preachin to the choir
I’ve gotten dull as old barbed wire from livin
Last night I watched the evening news
It was the same ol nothin new
It should have cut me right in two
But it didn’t
I dont know why it didn’t

But I wanna feel somethin
Somethin thats a real somethin
That moves me, that proves to me I’m still alive
I wanna heart that beats and bleeds
A heart thats bustin at the seams
I wanna care, I wanna cry, I wanna scream
I just wanna feel somethin

If you’re tellin me thats just how it is
I dont buy it cause once I was kissed
By a red-headed girl with cherry lips
On her porch when I was sixteen
And I felt it somewhere in my soul and time stood still and I couldn’t let go
I cant tell you cause I dont know how I got so cold
When did I get so cold

[Chorus:]
I just wanna feel somethin
Somethin that’s a real somethin
That moves me, that proves to me I’m still alive
Run my fingers through your fingers, across your face and through your hair
And close my eyes and breathe you in like air
I just wanna feel somethin

I hate that I’m jaded and I make you cry
But still you stick around me, only God knows why
Damn it all to hell, I’m done
Cause I don’t like what I’ve become
So come here, baby
Come here, baby

[Repeat Chorus]

Come here, baby
