Numb
If you see me walking
Somewhere, anywhere
You will notice how I act
And how I no longer care
I'm losing everything
That was once dear to me
So now I'm walking
Without emotion on my sleeve
I no longer have feeling
My mind is numb
And I don't want to be saved
So don't try and come
My mind though
Isn't the only thing numb
No it started out
With my wrists and my thumbs
And now it no longer helps
To play the guitar
It only makes my fingers numb too
And it just adds to the scars
Not even the piano
Although I do love it so
It doesnt help much
See, only sad songs I know
And don't even get me started
On singing and writing songs
Because they're all about you
Even when you're long gone
If you could feel the pain
That bursts through my soul
You would be like this too
Numb and not whole...
