Numb

(Verse 1)

I’m really tired of feeling this way

You bring me up and then you push me away

Even I know that’s not how it works

Why do you tease me and then act like a jerk

(Verse 2)

You were once a birdie living in my nest

Then you stretched out your wings & you fled

Leaving a hole in my chest

I’m tired of playing all these games

It’s like reliving life with my ex

(Pre-Chorus)

You pull me in

And then you push me away

Is it a red light or is it green

Make up your mind, so I can proceed

(Chorus)

All I know is that I hate living this way

What you show me is what you don’t say

I wish I was numb

To this pain

I wish I was numb

But I’m feeling drained

I wish I was numb

So I can stay sane

(Verse 3)

You let me in and I think everything’s okay

Then you don’t answer me, what’s the delay

I see you read all my texts

But putting up with you like this is bullshit

(Pre-Chorus)

You pull me in

And then you push me away

Is it a red light or is it green

Make up your mind, so I can proceed

(Chorus)

All I know is that I hate living this way

What you show me is what you don’t say

I wish I was numb

To this pain

I wish I was numb

But I’m feeling drained

I wish I was numb

So I can stay sane

(Bridge)

You say I see you still as a little boy

Well maybe that’s because you don’t use your words

You let silence speak for you

That’s something that a boy would do

(Verse 4)

It’s been a long 5 years

And I’ve cried a dozen tears

There’s a hole in my chest

That only you can address

(Pre-Chorus)

You pull me in

And then you push me away

Is it a red light or is it green

Make up your mind, so I can proceed

All I know is that I hate living this way

What you show me is what you don’t say

I wish I was numb

To this pain

I wish I was numb

But I’m feeling drained

I wish I was numb

So I can stay sane
