A Numbness

Misdirected, you’re on the side of the street
Where are all of the friends you just couldn’t keep
Where are the ones that watched you decay?
Stare the numbers in the face until your soul goes grey
Bottled up I fake it take the pressure
Holding onto this won’t make it better
A numbness, reluctance, wasting away
They’re gonna move out, they’re gonna drive away
Get in car accidents and graduate
They’ll decipher what plans to turn to next
While I’m stationery trying to accept
The fact that I stood still while they’re moving along
Cause I have nothing to show for the days that I lost
Accepting I’m past my prime
Accepting the guilt for my diminishing life
A numbness, reluctance
Wasting away my innocence
Struggle to breathe at the thought of the end
But I bite my tongue, turn my back and run to just give in
Where’d the days go?
Repetition you’re used to
I can’t help myself this time
A numbness, reluctance
Wasting away my innocence
Struggle to breathe at the thought of the end
But I bite my tongue, turn my back and run to just give in
