lyrics

Numb

Intro

Verse one
Reckless and so hoping my mold was broken open
And I was tumulting at the thing that you just said
Like somehow I’d forgive you like you’d broken your curfew
Or that the color blue was really the color red
All the things that shine and all the things that come alive
Were shadowed by the way you moved your head
There can be no sun, there can be no light
There can be no heat with the coldness in your eyes

Chorus one
You don’t feel it You’re just numb
But it burns through my skin You’re just numb
And it’s howling at my door You’re just numb
You don’t feel it anymore You’re just numb

Verse Two
Explanations asked for, but what’s really left to say
It’s not like some illumination will suddenly pull some sway
And judgements don’t do nothing and excuses are a bore
Just don’t say that you still love me when it’s clear you don’t no more
And everything you want is everything it can be
But everything you want is everything but me
So stop acting like you saved me when you only saved yourself
Introspection’s deeper than you will ever delve

Chorus two
You don’t feel it You’re just numb
But it burns through my skin You’re just numb
And it’s howling at my door You’re just numb
You don’t feel it anymore You’re just numb

Verse three
Cast upon the cobblestone and watch it break apart
Shadow sounds replace the sounds of my misplaced heart
Numb is how I found you and numb is how we’ll leave
You’re lucky I ever met you and I hope that you’ll miss me

Chorus out
You don’t feel it You’re just numb
But it burns through my skin You’re just numb
And it’s howling at my door You’re just numb
You don’t feel it anymore You’re just numb
