Artist: Hilltop Hoods Album: State Of The Art (2009) Title: Chase That Feeling
Lyrics Chase That FeelingShe's young, live and homely Wise by no means Known one guy she's for his eyes and only He's a lying phony, leaves crying, lonely Separates the pain by staying high and though she Might just O.D. high price to go free This ain't living, listen it's dying slowly (It's got a hold on me) She can chase that feeling (It's got a hold on me) Don't chase that feeling
(Chorus)
Sometimes I feel we strive through a life of apathy Callous deeds of the mindless acts of greed Ain't jack for free I think they try a tax to breathe Just let me fight to remind us that we bleed I take flight in the night from lack of sleep Cause peace of mind's the only time that we're free (It's got a hold on me) And I'm a chase that feeling (It's got a hold on me) We all chase that feeling
It's like they try to build you up to watch it all collapse Try to climb out the pit they'll try to claw you back Like back in the factory packing the shelves It was hell Cause the foreman was always harassing me like "How's your little old music thing going?" Now I'm like "How's your bitter old loser shit going?" And I'm right (It's got a hold on me) And I'm a chase that feeling (It's got a hold on me) I'm a chase that feeling like
(Chorus)
And I'm a chase that feeling Take that pain and replace that feeling And I'm a take that healing then Stand so tall they'll have to raise that ceiling man
At a young age I was making my mark Chasing my start Forever ain't enough when you're state of the art Fuck the haters that have said I'd never make it this far It's the pavers that I tread that dedicate to my craft I've tailored every threat to bare the shape of my heart Treating every breath as my first and day as my last (It's got a hold on me) I still chase that feeling (It's got a hold on me) Yeah I still chase that feeling.
I ride the rails of a vinyl track Fall into a trance and there ain't no climbing back Sit and lose myself in all the hidden loops They're like forbidden fruits, I'm like can I get a bite of that? Gin and juice I get loose and I write a track Shivers down my spine feeling more like a spinal tap (It's got a hold on me) And I'm a chase that feeling (It's got a hold on me) I'm a chase that feeling
(Chorus)
And I'm a chase that feeling Take that pain and replace that feeling And I'm a take that healing then Stand so tall they'll have to raise that ceiling man
At the start of summer I'm a Come to life and have the heart of a humming bird And I can hear the drummer And she's so ugly but I'm so in love with her Wake up Roll outta bed throw on some roll-on Roll up to the studio it's got a hold on me And I'm a chase that feeling Chase that feeling |
