Leftover Feelings

Written by Zachary Myers Theriault · 2020–2021, 2024

[Part 1]

[Chorus]

So I put my feelings in a bottle
Tell myself I’ll worry ‘bout it all tomorrow
But the pain remains the same

So I put more feelings in a bottle
Tell myself I’ll worry ‘bout it all tomorrow
But the pain remains the same

[Post-Chorus]

What was my
First mistake?

[Part 2]

[Verse 1]

So many years have passed
Since all of that bullshit went down
And somehow I still find myself
Stuck in the outskirts of this town

I wanna live in it
Be a part
Of my kuh-
Muu-ni-tee
But it doesn’t feel like
That’s ever been an option for me

[Pre-Chorus]

I try my best to integrate
I just can’t help but hesitate
Is my life guided
By words
I’ll never say?

[Chorus]

Fret
Over
Revealing

Left
Over
Feelings

Swept
Over
Healing

Left
Over
Feelings

[Verse 2]

I fill my time
With things that I
Loved as a kid
I waste my time
With things that don’t
Matter but I

Want to
Get up
Get out
And shine

[Verse 3]

These thoughts
Are clouding
Up my mind
From feelings that
I buried live

I won the fight
But lost the war
Is this what I was
Dying for?

[Chorus]

Fret
Over
Revealing

Left
Over
Feelings

Swept
Over
Healing

Left
Over
Feelings

[Pre-Chorus]

I try my best to integrate
I just can’t help but hesitate
Is my life guided
By words
I’ll never say?

[Chorus]

Fret
Over
Revealing

Left
Over
Feelings

Swept
Over
Healing

Left
Over
Feelings

[Outro]

Left
Over
Feelings
