Numb Lyrics

[Chorus]
You wanna get numb to feel okay
I don't know the problems you have to face
It's easy to run and hide from the pain
Marketed as the easy fix to make it go away
You wanna get numb to feel okay

[Verse 1]
Everything used to be amazing
You think 'bout it every day
Why can't everything that's good just stay?
Now you wanna find a way to get away
And go back to that happy place
You close your eyes and lay down slowly
Go to sleep then wake 'cause you're not okay
In your dreams, so many demons say hello, what wait
Angry at the world thinking why can't my luck behave

[Chorus]
You wanna get numb to feel okay
I don't know the problems you have to face
It's easy to run and hide from the pain
Marketed as the easy fix to make it go away
You wanna get numb to feel okay

[Post-Chorus]
There are other ways
There are other ways
[Verse 2]
You've been sleeping all day but still up all night
Fight the feeling little more and the sun will shine
That's what they say but it's never really what it's like huh
Not it's never really quite that simple
But you're used to the pain so it all goes away
And you're left alone in silence staring at the ground
And you want somebody but there's nobody around
You may need something to calm you down
'Cause if you just feel nothing well that's pretty chill, keep it real
All these feelings too much to deal, you're a human here
Can only take so much before you're falling to the floor

[Chorus]
You wanna get numb to feel okay
I don't know the problems you have to face
It's easy to run and hide from the pain
Marketed as the easy fix to make it go away
You wanna get numb to feel okay

[Outro]
There are other ways
There are other ways

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
