The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key

  • All this angst has made me numb
    From verdicts that are sold
    Society that peers down their snouts
    At a world they’ve never known
    Predetermined conclusions rain down
    Before the story unfolds
    Serving for false gratitude
    Only doing what they’re told
    Young men grow old fast
    Dreading what might next unfold

    Give in to impatience
    Look what it reveals
    Give in to impatience
    Wait for the whole story to be heard
    Give in to impatience
    Overturning of the world

    We were not the ones here first
    And we’ll never last
    A quark in time not resembling
    The evolution that came before
    Predecessors might not be around
    At least they had their peace
    Every night we go to bed
    It may have been our last feast

    A lack of morality has made me numb
    I can’t feel me bleed inside
    Humanity aims to run off track
    Can we ever take a hold
    Loosing grip makes you slide
    You fall down really fast
    Once you see the bottom coming
    Can you even look up to see the top
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes

  • Where is the light
    I see the pain
    What reaches out
    Creates it time and time again

    Fill my soul
    Avoid a void
    You can’t use love
    So fill it with pain

    There is no end
    It’s not in sight
    Seems to be
    That this will forever consume my life
    What will fill the void
    Of this lonely place
    It once seemed so right
    What came to be
    What made it all fall from grace

    I don’t ever want to feel that touch again
    It takes from me
    It kills my soul
    It’s never enough
    Leaves me weak
    I can only pray for more
    I don’t ever want to feel that touch again
    Gives me some hope
    Provides me a dream
    Reminds me that nothing is as it seems

    Avoid the void
    So paranoid
    Another’s touch
    Avoid the glare
    A void will dampen what hurts so much

    Void from avoid
    More than annoyed
    A gentle rush
    Once caused joy
    Now it only hurts to much

    When will it go
    Create a void
    Give me some room
    Avoid a touch
    I don’t want that
    Why does it all have to hurt so much
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes

  • Look for me
    What will I choose
    Start to sway
    Look beyond
    Please while I loose
    Every day
    I’ve done no wrong
    I’m still not right
    The only way
    I stand a ground
    I follow the right
    Opinion sways

    I don’t know why I’m really here
    Or what it is
    What do I stand for
    Filled with intoxication to be on the rightful side
    Blissful indecision
    I stand firmly one way
    I’m the one who challenges every thought
    I never seem to stand alone
    I change my mind first

    Can you see me swinging
    I’m a pendulum
    Standing here now
    No I wasn’t here first

    I don’t know
    I may not be so right
    Suppressed vision only lets me see your wrong
    I don’t know
    I may not have insight
    Stressed by what you say
    I know I have to fight
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes

  • Please to seed
    Passing on pleasing
    Pleasing my feeling
    Feeling its easy
    Easy to bend my mind that way

    Stay away

    Begging and pleading
    Pleading has no reason
    Reason to sway
    Sway things on your way

    Stay away

    I don’t like to see
    Don’t want things that way
    I don’t like to see
    Just want to continue to play

    Make it so easy
    Easy to have feelings
    Feelings of freedom
    Freedom from feelings
    Feelings that turn sympathy your way

    Stay away

    Know my attitude
    Know my institute
    Know my passions pain
    Know it’s here to stay

    Stay away
