You make me feel numb
Every emotion there is in this world
And I feel just one.
I had felt alive with the stars in my eyes.
The lyrics to those songs I sang along,
The ones that began to cry about how their lives went wrong.
I didn't relate or even compare my time
Then one day you wrote those words to me.
How am I supposed to react when you say you don't love me?
My heart in my chest then my heart in my hand
Which you took in the moment unplanned.
Why start future that you didn't want?
I can't understand how someone can look at me with this love, this taunt.
Even when you're gone I can feel you near haunting the hallways in my mind.
The numb corridor echoes my cries out of my eyes.
Why?
My heart was beating faster than i knew how to handle.
My dreams were sweeter than they had ever been behind my wall.
You broke down my door with this lie, a waste of my time.
Now those lyrics i heard are burned in with every rhyme
I didn't do anything wrong but here I am with this pain in my chest,
This dull pulling ache which drains my emotions even at their best.
What do we gain from this?
All I have left is the numbness and the feelings that I miss.
I felt really low then, I didn't think I could feel like that again.
