03:27 Relief
04:12 I Feel Great
[Verse 1]
Something's got a hold of me lately
No, I don’t know myself anymore
Feels like the walls are all closing in
And the devil's knocking at my door (Woah)
Out of my mind
How many times did I tell you
I'm no good at being alone?
Yeah, it's taken a toll on me, tryin' my best to keep
from tearing the skin off my bones
Don't you know...
[Chorus]
I lose control
when you're not next to me
I’m fallin’ apart right in front of you
Can't you see?
I lose control
when you’re not next to me (Mhm)
Yeah, you're breaking my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
[Verse 2]
Problematic
The problem is I want your body like a fiend, like a bad habit
Bad habits hard to break when I'm with you
Yeah, I know I can do it on my own
but I want that real full moon black magic and it takes two
Problematic
The problem is when I’m with you I'm an addict
and I need some relief
My skin and your teeth
Can't see the forest through the trees
Got me down on my knees, darlin', please (Oh)

Wow, your explanation of the song made me love it 100 times more. I love some Teddy Swims! Blessings up! 😊❤️🙏🏾
His voice is amazing 😭
truly
Makes it seem effortless. raw talent it's refreshing
@@geniustruly
Yes it is, love his airy raspiness sings effortlessly
Joy I think so too
He had a raspy voice too 😊
He’s such a doll. What a kind soul and loving spirit.💯🌺
Oh wow he is amazing acoustic
I can’t believe I just discovered Teddy. He’s hitting hard NZ now 👏
Funny you say that! He’s a personal friend of mine. He was actually going viral in Australia and NZ online back in 2018-ish before he got signed to Warner Records. He was gaining a bigger following over there before people in America were even noticing him. Now he’s pretty much known worldwide though, but just thought that would be interesting for you to know. Take care!!
@TerrySwims is a strong representation of what it means to recover. As a former mental health and addictions therapist I love when people learn how utilize emotional expressions in healthy ways. His music is his healthy escape and stress relief. And he is inspiring others greatly.
Your's is a once in a 1000 years voice..
Sir, your voice is pure gold...What a treasure you bestie on your fans..
I absolutely love teddy swims ♥️🎶 perfect voice
I enjoyed this so much!! Teddy, you are so earthy and real and as talented as can be ❤ I can’t remember the last time I loved a song as much as this one!!!
That second verse goes crazy!
I first saw you on with Kelly Clarkson and not only fell in love with this song but also with you! So glad you are out of that place as I know how hard it can be to love ourselves enough that we deserve to be healthy. Music is what gets me through this life, so thank you for songs like this!
I just discovered this guy. WOW! Now I can’t get enough of his voice. What a talent.❤
Teddy I am so glad that found this video of you and hearing the meaning of the song. I love this song so much. ❤
You can tell he could sing it live 1:1 with the recording it's always nice to see
Teddy’s songs are totally addictive!!!
every time I hear his voice I'm blown away!!! just absolutely incredible
I am so happy to see this video and the explanation, a few years back I sent a message to one of your sites with all of your cover songs after I saw you do Tennessee whiskey, because I thought you were losing control with drugs and it was obvious and I asked you please don't do what Elvis did because I fell in love with your voice😊 I'm so glad that you're still here and you're good and making more music! Keep on keeping on!! A very proud of you fan!!!!
This is so sweet!! The internet can be so wholesome sometimes ❤
His band, IMO, is beyond amazing.
You are an angel . Your voice is and angel your soul is an angel . Whatever happened to you must have hurt like hell . It took a lot of courage to be where you are . Congratulations! Be blessed ! ❤
He's sweet and his voice is out of this world ❤
