"numb" lyrics
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
In a different life, a different world, a different page
With a different mind, a different name
Cuz all these bad days turn to bad weeks
And the bad weeks turn to bad months
And the bad thoughts got you on edge on the rooftop but you can't jump
Just stuck yea
None of my friends are feelin the same, they're so blessed
And happy in their skin but I'm just so uncomfortable in mine
I'm probably just wound too tight but look, take your pick, what you prefer?
Broken bones, or broken hearts, or broken homes don't know what's worse
So let me think
Or put me on too many pills to let me think I'm fallin' in
Another night alone with all these songs again just waiting for the storm to pass
Wait until the seasons change cuz life is what you make it, but I think that's just things they say
And I don't have a chance, so what's the point to run? I used to think I wanted out but
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
Locked in my room
Anything keep me away from reality
They say you gotta take bad with the good but I guess that I'm not very good at the balancing
Lookin' around at these people so easily dealing with life on a practical level
Like why the fuck can't I just learn to be normal?
And really what's normal, like what's it resemble?
A waste of potential they think that I'm hopeless and
I'm just surprised that someone had noticed me, out of the fire the heart is still broken
I'm so fuckin' tired of everyone knowing it
Holdin' in all of these feelings until I'm about to explode and spend
Every moment just counting the seconds until I'm back alone I just keep waiting for the storm to pass
Wait until the seasons change cuz life is what you make it
But I think that's just things they say
And I don't have a chance, so what's the point to run?
I used to think I wanted out but
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
(Maybe I just wanna be)
(Maybe I just wanna be numb)
(Wanna be numb, wanna be numb)
(Maybe I just wanna be numb)
(Wanna be numb, wanna be numb)
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
In a different life, a different world, a different page
With a different mind, a different name
Cuz all these bad days turn to bad weeks
And the bad weeks turn to bad months
And the bad thoughts got you on edge on the rooftop but you can't jump
Just stuck yea
None of my friends are feelin the same, they're so blessed
And happy in their skin but I'm just so uncomfortable in mine
I'm probably just wound too tight but look, take your pick, what you prefer?
Broken bones, or broken hearts, or broken homes don't know what's worse

Or put me on too many pills to let me think I'm fallin' in

Wait until the seasons change cuz life is what you make it, but I think that's just things they say
And I don't have a chance, so what's the point to run? I used to think I wanted out but
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
Locked in my room

Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
(Maybe I just wanna be)
(Maybe I just wanna be numb)
(Wanna be numb, wanna be numb)
(Maybe I just wanna be numb)
(Wanna be numb, wanna be numb)
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I don't wanna be loved
Wanna be loved, wanna be loved
Maybe I just wanna be numb
Wanna be numb, wanna be numb
Maybe I just wanna be
