Numb - Lyrics by Amanda Ghost


Lyrics
Numb is about a deep platonic friendship, the kind that in some ways is more intense that any romantic relationship. I feel everything four million times more than anyone else-
Very, very sensitive, admits ghost, as she reveals the personal story behind numb. it's all about not wanting to feel what I felt, wanting to anesthetize myself to the re
Nship. but the irony is that I did [feel it], of course, otherwise I wouldn't have written the song. when you're going out with someone and it's not working out, you're like, ’okay, finished, ov
T's gone.’ with friendships, you can't do that, you can't just go, ’it's over, it's finished.’ you always just have to keep working on it. the person I wrote that about is the person I love most
He world. I love him more than anyone in my life, any lover I've ever had. they bring great things to you, but for every luxury, there's a heartache, there's a price to pay.I didn't notice you
Didn't have a point of view
All the things that mattered then
Only really hit me when I saw that inside you were scared
Lying on a bed of nails
Build me up to watch me fail
All the ones that went before
Never really wanted more than you were not willing to give
Chorus
I'm falling down
Can't see the truth
I know the hell that you've been through
I'm falling out of love with you
But I'll find defences
I'll try to care less
Won't someone help me feel numb
Felt the sting of acid rain
Sweet messiah come again sitting on my pedestal
I never really felt at all that I'm the same person as you
I'm falling down
Can't see the truth
I know the hell that you've been through
I'm walking side by side with you
But I'll find defences
I'll try to care less
Won't someone help me feel numb
I'll find defences
I'll try to care less
Won't someone help me feel numb
