I wanna go to sleep and not wake up I want a simple dress and no makeup I wanna fight with you and not make up, my love I've been like this for too long I've always wanted what was out of reach It's not your fault the way you brainwashed me Now I'm stranded under all this shame with no god And no good luck I'll never measure up Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I wanna drink till I'm dumb I wanna let you in and not be scared I wanna change my mind, become a parent I wanna laugh so hard my stomach hurts Wake up next to you in my t-shirt I've never been much of an optimist Then she screamed at me to take my meds That still echoes back inside my head Every now and again when I have trouble with love or with friends Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I wanna drink till I'm dumb I didn't appreciate my youth when I was young Too unsafe and far too focused on growing up Tightened belts, so suck it up and bite my tongue Burn the pages telling me I'm not enough And I don't wanna settle down, but I'd like to fall in love I don't wanna look back and feel unadventurous I wanna see my life with no regrets But it's too late for that Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I'm a little bit numb Some nights I wanna drink till I'm dumb Some nights I'm a little bit numb
