They ask how I keep my head in the game
Work's my shadow it calls my name
Clock ticks loud but drowns out shame
Whiskey whispers it’s all okay
Loneliness fades like the end of the day
I stay numb to the noise
Life’s just a static voice
Weed rolls me back like a wave
Shrooms light the dark of my cave
The past is a ghost I let drift away
Work keeps me company
The clock's my only friend tonight
Chasing hours in a crooked line
Whiskey drowns the loneliness
Burns my throat but not my chest
Still it keeps the ghosts suppressed
How do I stay numb to the pain
Pour a little whiskey let it rain
Roll it up
Let the smoke take the blame
How do I
How do I stay numb to the pain
Weed lays me back on a velvet cloud
Soft as silence
The world's not so loud
For a moment
I’m allowed
Shrooms open up my tired eyes
Colors dancing
No need to lie
An escape I can't deny
How do I stay numb to the pain
Pour a little whiskey let it rain
Roll it up
Let the smoke take the blame
How do I
How do I stay numb to the pain
I wear the night like a heavy coat
Memories sink but they won’t float
Lost in the haze but I take that oath
Third eye opens shows me skies
Escape in colors no need for lies
I stay numb to the noise
Life’s just a static voice
Weed rolls me back like a wave
Shrooms light the dark of my cave
The past is a ghost numb the pain drift away
