My Velma - that's how it feels lyrics

<b>that's how it feels</b> by <i>My Velma</i><br />I drop a nickel down the well

I bend over but it’s hard to tell

if deep down there’s water at all

or if I should move on

I hesitated when I should have run

I wish I were a lizard in the sun

I’d find myself some spot in the shade

and mourn my broken tail

that’s how it feels

like doing time

a terrible deal

and no way out

flat on my back

I hear the count

dulling my ears

that’s how it feels

like dead inside

head over heels

I just keep rolling

no turning back

they’re on me now

tell me to freeze

my cup’s broken and my feet are sore

I keep walking ‘cause I know for sure

one day I’ll be ready again

to take my blues to town

that’s how it feels

like doing time

a terrible deal

and no way out

flat on my back

I hear the count

dulling my ears
