Note to Instructor

No Notes Available

Sometimes people self-medicate to numb out and manage their emotions. Before they know it they have crossed over a grey line and are addicted. In the end, they become detached from more than the emotion they were trying to escape in the first place. Cowritten by Clare Steffen (USA) and MonLee Mane (UK), and performed by MonLee.

Lyrics

V1

The world is troubled and confused

So many feel lost and all alone

Just another excuse to use

They can't make it on their own

V2

I never thought I'd join the masses

But somehow I tripped and fell

I took off my rose-colored glasses

And entered my own personal hell

Chorus

I thought I'd walk the straight and narrow

Path, but somehow I took a left turn

I was mugged by my emotions

Shot, by a tranquilizer arrow

Intoxication is a slow burn

There are so many flavors and potions

I was mugged by my emotions

V3

Disconnected my brain went numb

Before I knew it I crossed the line

A premonition of things to come

I couldn't read the danger signs

Chorus

I thought I'd walk the straight and narrow

Path, but somehow I took a left turn

I was mugged by my emotions

Shot, by a tranquilizer arrow

Intoxication is a slow burn

There are so many flavors and potions

I was mugged by my emotions

Outro

Just another excuse to use

Mugged by my emotions

Numb, lost, and confused
