numb

You will look for me
In everybody
That comes after me
I'll be passing through
I'll be red and blue
I won't look for you

These walls keep
Closing in, closing in on me
And you keep
Paddling, paddling in my red sea
And I keep
Drowning in, drowning in your dead sea
You're draining all of my energy

I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby
I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby

This whiskey, this green
These hollers, these screams
They're haunting my dreams
These scars under my skin
These bruises deep within
I'm drenched in your sin

These walls keep
Closing in, closing in on me
And you keep
Paddling, paddling in my red sea
And I keep
Drowning in, drowning in your dead sea
You're draining all of my energy

I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby
I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby

These walls keep closing in, closing in on me
(On summer days
The Plutonian ice below will literally vaporize into thin air)
And I keep drowning in, drowning in your dead sea
(You can think of the atmosphere being a bit like a frosty morning
With evaporating stuff coming off an icy surface)

I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby
I'm going numb
I'm going numb, baby
We're going numb, baby
