Elizabeth Piper - Catharsis lyrics

[Elizabeth Piper - Catharsis lyrics]

I feel uneasy that I can't talk to you
Like I used to anymore
Oh, it used to be so easy
Just to tell you all my
Feelings when we spoke before
So I sit down and write a poem
Till my body aches and I’ve cried
All the tears that I have
But the poem isn’t good so I
Just crumple it all up
And start to write again

I can’t find a way to
Get all this frustration
Out of my fingertips
It’s made a home in my chest
A tangled-up nest
I can’t reach
Oh, I’ve tried everything
That everyone has said
Apparently will help mе come to grips
Oh, I’ve cried and sung and paintеd
But catharsis really isn’t coming naturally
I've exercised and meditated
But catharsis really isn't coming naturally

I'm going crazy thinking
Bout our conversations
And walks along the shore
Oh, we used to sing duets while
We were watching the sunset
But I needed more
And so I look at all the pictures
And I memorized the way your
Eyes look when you smile
Oh, it's burned into my brain
And it’s such a lovely pain
For a little while

I can’t find a way to
Get all this frustration
Out of my fingertips
It’s made a home in my chest
A tangled-up nest
I can’t reach
Oh, I’ve tried everything
That everyone has said
Apparently will help me come to grips
Oh, I’ve cried and sung and painted
But catharsis really isn’t coming naturally
I've exercised and meditated
But catharsis really isn't coming naturally

If I painted a pretty enough picture
Would it bring you back to stay
If I carved you out of marble
Or I cast you into gold would you be mine
Words upon page can't bring you here
Even for only just a day
But maybe if I write a song about it
I'll feel better in a little time

I can’t find a way to
Get all this frustration
Out of my fingertips
It’s made a home in my chest
A tangled-up nest
I can’t reach
Oh, I’ve tried everything
That everyone has said
Apparently will help me come to grips
Oh, I’ve cried and sung and painted
But catharsis really isn’t coming naturally

I can’t find a way to
Get all this frustration
Out of my fingertips
It’s made a home in my chest
A tangled-up nest
I can’t reach
Oh, I’ve tried everything
That everyone has said
Apparently will help me come to grips

I can’t find a way to
Get all this frustration
Out of my fingertips
It’s made a home in my chest
A tangled-up nest
I can’t reach
Oh, I’ve tried everything
That everyone has said
Apparently will help me come to grips
Oh, I’ve cried and sung and painted
Exercise and meditated
Even redecorated, yes I swear I'm motivated
But I guess it's complicated
Cause catharsis really isn't
Coming naturally
Oh, I guess it's complicated cause
Catharsis really isn't coming naturally
