Lyrics
Numb
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Chase destruction of your own emotions
And your need for love, makes you easy prey
Safety of a rubber glove seems much too simple
Climbing up and down, waiting for the day
You can't see if I'm not listening
You can't hear with my eyes open
I can hate with my eyes open
I feel better when I'm numb
Chase distraction of your own existence
Keep it clean, clean enough to stab
Lick your own wounds, anxious for the next one
Cry for more pain, heal what you have
You can't see if I'm not listening
You can't hear with my eyes open
I can't hate with my eyes open
I feel better when I'm numb
Just another hit for the one you love
If you cared at all, you'd put me down
Wake up dead man, can't you see I'm starving
Wake up dead man, can't you see I'm starving
You can't see if I'm not listening
You can't hear with my eyes open
I can't hate with my eyes open
I feel better
I feel better
I feel better when I'm numb
