Felt Lyrics

Felt sure you felt something
Felt sure, but it really was nothing.
You felt, but you're only guessing.
They're only feelings baby, they're only feelings.

Felt I'd left you hanging.
Felt sure I'd stopped myself caring.
You felt, that I'd stopped believing
They're only feelings baby, they're only feelings.

What is real? Is real reason?
What is real? Is real reason?
What is real? Is real reason?
What is real?
I still get you. Do you still get me?

(Instrumental)

Felt my skin on your skin.
Felt sure, sensations like raining.
You felt no logical thinking.
They're only feelings baby, they're only feelings.

Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo-lo-lo

Cover art for Felt lyrics by Garbage

Classic (Feeler vs. Thinker) Battle.

The Verses:

The narrator is in love with a Logic-driven person who doesn't appear to feel emotions like the singer does. (The person on the other side of this conversation could be "The Scientist" as written by Chris Martin and Coldplay.

I think the "They're only feelings baby" line is what the the Logical partner is saying back to her.

As they grow apart, she realizes she stops caring while he thinks she has lost faith (Classically how logical people see relationships in a "We'll make it work sense"

The Refrain (What is real? Is Real Reason?):

Narrator argues that what she "Feels" is all that is worth savoring about the relationship and life (Reality). The Logical person might argue something contrary to this.

See, I think she's trying to reject both their feelings and logic and just go with their basic senses, like touch.
