"numb" lyrics

"numb"

I hold my hand over the flame
To see if I can feel some pain
Look at what you've gone and done
Baby, baby, now I'm numb

I'm losing weight, bub
I'm looking great, bub
So what? I go out every night
Sometimes I take drugs
They're like my make-up
This fucking break up
You see, I gave you all my heart
And now I hate love

That's right I hate love
It only baits us
And if you wanna know how I feel
Well, here's a taste of

I hold my hand over the flame
To see if I can feel some pain
Look at what you've gone and done
Baby, baby, now I'm numb

I'm losing

I hold my hand over the flame
To see if I can feel some pain
Look at what you've gone and done
Baby, baby, baby, baby, now I'm numb
