How It Feels
02:50

I only play for the highest stakes
I'm on the attack yeah
Never look back
I've been called an acquired taste
Paint the town red baby
Better off dead maybe
Feels like I been spinning my wheels
Why give a damn when nothing is real
But then you come around
With your sunshine smile
And it turns out I haven't laughed in a while
And you touch my hand and oh yeah
That's how how it feels
That's how it feels
This whole town's fucking fake
They smile to your face
While they're digging your grave
Gotta know how to play the game
Cause they're coming for the crown
You can never look down, no
Feels like I have never belonged
Am I the one who's always been wrong
But then you pick a fight
And you're on my side
And I swear that I can see a little fear in their eyes
And if I had any doubt I don't now
That's how it feels
This is how it feels
That's how it feels
This is how it feels
Love love love
I hear them talk about it
Just shut up
For years I wouldn't have it
But the joke's on me
Cause now I've found it
And here you are now sitting by my side
And I'd burn it all down cause I don't need pride
And I don't need to win
I don't need to fight
I don't need anything I left in my old gray life
Cause you taught me
You taught me
How it feels
This is how it feels
This is how it feels
This is how it feels
I'll never give it up
Na Na Na Na Na Na

Never look back
I've been called an acquired taste
Paint the town red baby
Better off dead maybe
Feels like I been spinning my wheels
Why care at all when nothing is real
But then you come around
With your sunshine smile
And it turns out I haven't laughed in a while
And you touch my hand and oh yeah
That's how how it feels
That's how it feels
This whole town's full of fakes
