The Wombats – Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This

Lyrics Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This – The Wombats

Ecstasy, tragedy, doom
I summon monsters to the back of your hotel
I think I might have arrived too soon
I hear the birds harmonise between your yells

I thought it would be more my style
A new bag and an overnight kit
I only ever did it once in a while
Is this what it feels like to feel like this
Is this what it feels like to feel like this

I hear the daffodils are all in bloom
I summon monsters to the door of your hotel
I might disturb the sign on your room
And smash through with the weight of the Liberty Bell

I thought it would be more my style
Champagne in an overnight kit
I only ever did it once in a while
Is this what it feels like to feel like this
Is this what it feels like to feel like this

And the world is a glass and it’s overflown
You can self-improve, but you’re still on your own
And who am I to tell you what I think you should do
Oh, who am I, but just a third wheel in the room
And we terrify each other and act obscene

The world is just a used pinball machine
As strange fluids occupy the shine on your lips
Is this what it feels like to feel like this
Is this what it feels like to feel like this
Is this what it feels like to feel like this…
