I see a man in the mirror
I see a blurred out figure
I used to look so different
I guess that time is a killer, huh?
I've seen a saint turn sinner
I've seen a man get bitter
Once or twice
How could this've happened
I'm feeling abandoned
I'm breaking up
But
I'm done with thinking about it
But my heart won't allow it
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
To all the pain that has found me
Cos it's all around me
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
I feel the walls getting thicker
While my strengths' getting thinner
Oh I've never been a quitter
Or ever want to give up (nah)
But now I'm running like a river
I'm running like a river yeah
Yeah
Cause
I'm done with thinking about it
But my heart won't allow it
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
To all the pain that has found me
Cos it's all around me
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
Numb, numb
Won't somebody take this pain
And make it all just go away
I don't care if I'm left with nothing
Cause everyday repeats the same
It's on my mind all over again
I'm done with thinking about it
But my heart won't allow it
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
To all the pain that has found me
Cos it's all around me
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb (I'd rather be numb)
Oh
I wish I was numb
I wish I was I
I wish I was numb
