  • Well they said you were a bright child
    Never anything but joy behind your eyes
    No sign of all the dark clouds
    Spreading like volcanic dust over your blues skies
    Now they're looking for an answer
    Where the rot set in and set up the landslide

    But it only makes it worse now
    You're like a puzzle to be worked out

    And it's the voices in your head now
    Saying there's something wrong about the way I feel
    A broken link, a missing part, a punctured wheel

    And it's not what you're expecting
    The way the world you built loves to cut you down
    The way your head gets twisted
    And you sit up all night trying to figure it out
    And they say you've made your bed now
    Don't you see you've brought it on yourself

    And they say that you should move on
    But you can't even get your shoes on

    And it's the voices in your head now
    Saying there's something wrong about the way I feel
    A broken link, a missing part, a punctured wheel
    It doesn't matter what you say now
    It's like some vision in the stars that seems so real
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel

    And everyone else has got things sorted out
    You stand on the edge talking to yourself
    You're young, left behind and tangled up inside

    And it's not what you're expecting
    The way your head gets twisted
    And it's the voices in your head now
    (And it's the voices in your head now)

    And it's the voices in your head now
    Saying there's something wrong about the way I feel
    A broken link, a missing part, a punctured wheel
    It doesn't matter what you say now
    It's like some vision in the stars that seems so real
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel

    The way I feel
    It's like some vision in the stars that seems so real
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel
    The way I feel, the way I feel, the way I feel Writer/s: Jesse Quin, Richard David Hughes, Thomas Oliver Chaplin, Timothy James Rice-Oxley
