Numb Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
Paint a picture in my head
Yellow, black, and red
Use it as a disguise
Spray it down to reset
Clean bodies at rest
Pull the wool over my eyes
Over my eyes

[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
Push me 'til the very end
This life was all but over when
All of my friends found their graves
Now use me 'til there’s nothing left
Then shoot me with your medicine
So I can’t feel any more pain
I’m numb to this place

[Bridge: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures, I’m
Painting pictures in my head
In my head
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures, I’m
Painting pictures in my head
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Pull the shades closed
Turn this town off
You see right through me
Just turn this town off
So push me

[Chorus: Jeremy DePoyster]
Push me 'til the very end
This life was all but over when
All of my friends found their graves
Now use me 'til there’s nothing left
Then shoot me with your medicine
'Til I can’t feel any more pain

[Instrumental Break]

I’m numb to this place

[Outro: Jeremy DePoyster & MIke Hranica]
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures, I’m
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures, I’m
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures in my head
Painting pictures, I’m
Painting pictures in my head

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
