Zella Day – Kansas City Motel Room lyrics

[Intro]
I've been feeling numb for a while
So I turn up the AC dial
So I can feel something holding me
Even if it's just cotton sheets

[Verse 1]
I've learned to accept that people can't save me
And if there's some changing, it will be here inside of me
I won't pretend that I don't love you, if I can tell you how I feel
My world is slowing down and I've been stuck up on this hill
Where the chaos down below made me feel like I don't know
What is best for my vitality, in this empire made of money

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna sing about misbehaving if life's about being gracious
Don't wanna chase after insanity to prove that I can take it
I'm a girl like any other, calling the sisters and the brothers
It shouldn't be this hard to stand up and love each other

[Verse 3]
Yeah, I wanna tell my future daughter that there's hope in this existence
There's a path here if you listen, it's the depth in your persistence
There's a breath and there's a word, there is beauty to be learned
The loss is not the enemy in the river of humanity

[Chorus]
And calling all the people that talk about beliefs
Do you believe in where the world is at?
She's falling to her knees
And we're the only ones, with our bodies and our guns
That are consumed with all our differences
Instead of with the love

[Outro]
I've been feeling numb for a while
So I turn up the AC dial
So I can feel something holding me
In this Kansas City motel room
