I see a man in the mirror, I see a blurred out figure
I used to look so different, I guess the time is a killer
I've seen a saint turn sinner, I've seen a man get bitter once or twice
How could this have happened? I'm feeling abandoned, I'm breaking up
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
Cause it's all around me
I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
Now, now
I feel the walls getting thicker
While my strength getting thinner
I know I've never been a quitter
Whoever wants to give up now
Cause I'm running like a river
I'm running like a river, skirts
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
Cause it's all around me
I'd rather be numb
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 every day repeats the same
It's on my mind all over again
And 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
Cause it's all around me
I'd rather be numb, I'd rather be numb
I'd rather be numb
Ooh, I wish I was numb
I wish I was numb
I wish I was, I wish I was numb
