"Phoenix Down" lyrics

"Phoenix Down"

Watch my purpose go up in flames
I feel numb, almost certain my nerves don't feel pain

How did I get here, on the floor
Staring up at the lights?
They're appealing, no, such a bore
Without anything to keep me entertained
I can hear the blood that's pumping through my veins
And any sense of urgency has essentially vacated my brain

Try to pick myself up and force my mind to restore
Choose a task, go about it half-ass
Only to feel the exact same way as before

Watch my purpose go up in flames
I feel numb, almost certain my nerves don't feel pain
Am I just broken? (Am I just broken?)
My progress arrested, I'm feeling insane
And it's worsened
Every day since the last time I heard someone use both our names

In the same sentence
Does it make any sense?
I don't know 'cause I've lost all convictions and the things that I say
How the fuck did I get here?

Watch my purpose go up in flames
I feel numb, almost certain my nerves don't feel pain
Am I just broken? (Am I just broken?)
My progress arrested, I'm feeling insane
And it's worsened
Listening to the clock ticking since they stop pairing our names
