"Numb" lyrics - THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT

THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT
"Numb"
(Noah Harmon / Mikel Jollett)

I've been in a daze
It seems like days that I've been waiting
For this dream to pass
It goes so fast
It seems nothing lasts
I think I've lost something

Stuck here with these people
Wide awake the crush of bodies in one space
I feel your hot breath on my tongue
I wonder where you've gone

And the ever turning spinning wheel of people, places
Lies I feel
The restless beat of the sleepless night to come
I just want to be numb
I just want to be numb

Hopeless these three years like smoke and gears
I go from place to place
Just endlessly and half asleep
Like I've fallen alone in some endless breach

I don't know where I am
I don't know what I've done
I just go over and over again and again and again
I can't sleep at night
I can't breathe
But If I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind

And the ever present pit I feel
I'm drowning on some spinning wheel
Of faces and the scenes I see
And none of this seems real to me
Just the bleary haze of the morning still to come

I just want to be numb [5x]
