Can’t Shake It

Background
Songwriting is therapy, or is it therapy is songwriting? Not really sure anymore. This one started life as a daily invention, as many of my newer songs do. Pretty sure I was listening to a lot of 80’s David Bowie when this one came out.

Lyrics
Here we go again
Got this feelin' I just can't shake
It gnaws me to the bone
Here we go again
Got this feelin' I just can't shake
And it won't leave me alone
Can you name
your biggest failure
Can you see
the trophy of triumph
Can you feel
your strongest emotion
Can you smell
the sweetness in the air
Here we go again
Got this feelin' I just can't shake
It gnaws me to the bone
Here we go again
Got this feelin' I just can't shake
And it won't leave me alone
Can you say
You tried your hardest
All the times
It didn't even matter
Does your mind
Stop you from doing
All the things
That make you a bearable shape
Do your
demons
have a
name
Did you
ever wonder
if you
were alone
