Sick in My Hands

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sam Hudson said it plain first time I fired a Glock my stomach turned to rain my hands just wouldn’t stop I wasn’t built for that I heard it and went cold that kind of weight gets heavy on the soul [Pre-Chorus] I thought it’d feel like power like something in my chest but all I felt was shaking and a weight I couldn’t lift [Chorus] I felt sick, I felt sick at the break of my own hands I felt sick, I felt sick when the shot rang out at last Sam Hudson said it plain and I know just what he meant I felt sick, I felt sick and I never want that again [Verse 2] The room went hard and hollow the air burned through my skin I stared down at the metal like I’d let a stranger in No movie made me ready no talk could make it right some doors you open once and lose a little light [Pre-Chorus] I thought I’d stand there steady I thought I’d feel okay but fear sat on my shoulders and it would not go away [Chorus] I felt sick, I felt sick at the break of my own hands I felt sick, I felt sick when the shot rang out at last Sam Hudson said it plain and I know just what he meant I felt sick, I felt sick and I never want that again [Bridge] Maybe that’s the warning maybe that’s the cost when something meant for winning makes you feel like you got lost So keep my heart unarmed keep my head on true I’d rather hold your trembling than ever hold one like you [Chorus] I felt sick, I felt sick at the break of my own hands I felt sick, I felt sick when the shot rang out at last Sam Hudson said it plain and I know just what he meant I felt sick, I felt sick and I never want that again
