Analysis of Feeling Blue



Since the day that you were taken,
Since the moment you were lost to me
everything just lost it's colour
and i feel nothing else but pain..

so I will embrace this pain,
because it is all that i have left of you
No i'm not depressed...
I'm just feeling Blue.

Don't care about the little things,
Don't care about the world,
Don't want to know 'bout this and that
It all has lost it's worth.

so I embrace the pain,
it is the only thing that still feels true
No! I'm not depressed...
Just feeling really Blue

Sometimes i want the pain to stop,
but then you would be gone,
there would be nothing left for me to love
so i will love the pain.

I will love the pain,
Because i don't know what else to do
No, i'm not depressed...
I'm just feeling Blue
