Numb, by bedazzled Subscribe to rss feed for bedazzled

All alone in this house,
All alone with my mind,
All alone with no one else,
I'm scared what I might find,

I don't really want to know,
What is consuming my mind,
Because I'm trying to grow,
After love has been unkind,

And I don't know why,
I just can't explain,
I can't analyse how,
I felt so much pain,
Because how can you feel,
When you are,
Already numb?
And how can you cry,
When your tears,
Are all done?

I look around me,
Looking for escape,
But in the emptiness,
I can only see your face,

I try to ignore it,
But it just won't go away,
I try to move but I'm frozen,
Words could never say,

Never say why,
I just can't explain,
I can't analyse how,
I fell again,
Because how can I be real,
When I am,
Already numb?
And how can you keep trying,
When all your will,
Is done?

The world swirls around me,
I'm alone crying out,
But nobody ever finds me,
Trapped within by doubt,
Because I still can't explain,
Why I ever fell in love with you,
And I still can't dissect,
The pain you put me through,
Because now that it's all over,
And I've realised I was dumb,
My heart is vacant,
And I 
am 
numb.
