Feeling numb Feeling sad. What, to you I've only changed…
“Feeling numb Feeling sad. What, to you I've only changed from worse to bad? Your eyes misleading.Your heart deceiving. I try to hide, so that no one sees my soul inside. In front of the mirror I think to myself, should I get that razor off the top shelf? The re-leaving pain only a cut away. I don't wanna cut only once today. I slice and slice until the feelings leave. Only for them to return again. And push me to the edge. For what I've got no cure. I'm sorry, my heart's no longer pure. You laugh and point at me. Why can't you just let me be? Is for you there something wrong? Yeah, I should have known all along That you could never change. Now I'm the one to blame. I'm the one who's framed.”
