Numb

It's my shield.

It's how I protect myself.

Giving in to how you feel

is like putting yourself through hell.

Like a knife sticking in me,

from the moment that I felt...

 

When I felt so numb!

Can't feel anything.

No more hate or love

is living in me.

I hate how it feels.

Nothing else to speak of,

so my life it steals.

No more feeling cause I'm numb!

 

Going deep inside.

Can't even hide myself there.

Someone taking what's mine

stole it from me i swear!

A bastard thief in the night

left me for dead out there...

 

But I became numb!

Can't feel anything!

I can't give up on love,

but it's killing me!

I really hate that it feels

like I can't speak up.

So my life it steals.

No more feeling cause I'm numb!

 

This feeling is killing me!!!

But I can't just give up!

I don't have it in me!!

God give me strength from above.

Take this hate I'm living in!

Turn it in to something You're made of!

Help me to show forgiveness!

It's tearing me apart!

All this hate I hide!

Can't give in to it all!

It could cost me my life!

 

I'm no longer numb!

I feel everything!

Won't give up on love!

It's what's saving me!

I always will speak up!

My life it can't steal!

No giving up to be numb!!!

Lincoln Park has been in my head. Picture something along those lines.
