Testo Swollen - Michael Waugh

Testo della canzone Swollen (Michael Waugh), tratta dall'album Best Country 2022

I know that greed is a sin
And that gluttony is deadly
I crave to be filled with love
But constantly I'm empty
It tasted of comfort
'til it tasted of shame
I served it 'til I was
Swollen like a twisted ankle
Puffy like a purple bruise
Trying not to swallow my feelings
That's how it gets in you
And you feel the weight
When the weight is on top of you
I've seen that look in your eyes
I recognise what it's for
I've seen it in reflective shop windows
And in bathroom mirrors before
It still surprises me
What it's done to me
And how it's taken a hold
It choked me 'til I was
Swollen like a twisted ankle
Puffy like a purple bruise
Trying not to swallow my feelings
That's how it gets in you
And you feel the weight
When the weight is on top of you
It fills your plate
When the weight is on top of you
And I was swollen
Swollen
Watching it take a hold and I was
Swollen
Swollen
That's how it gets in you
'Geez, you've been in a good paddock.'
'Are you sure you need another?'
'Keep it on the quiet
I knew this guy who was on this diet
And he removed all carbohydrates from his life.'
'I've got a plan
We could replace every second meal with a high protein shake.'
I'm the sort of guy who eats all his feelings
And there were far too many feelings I ate
All I hear is 'Love yourself if you really want to get into shape.'
How am I supposed to love myself when I look at my own body with hate?
Swollen like a twisted ankle
Puffy like a purple bruise
Trying not to swallow my feelings
That's how it gets in you
And you feel the weight
When the weight is on top of you
You can feel the hate
When the weight is on top of you
And it fills your plate
When the weight is on top of you
I know that greed is a sin
And that gluttony is deadly
I crave to be filled with love
But constantly I'm empty
