Become Numb


I was told To not have feelings That no one cares So don't bother crying Because that does nothing Sorry I’m a human being To tell me to not feel Is to tell me not to live Life is just A bunch Of emotions Every memory An emotion Every moment An emotion Every thought An emotion It is all one giant emotion I’m sorry I’m a human being Trust me I’d change that In a heart beat too Only if I could Really, I guess I could I guess I could stop Stop all feeling Become numb Let that final breathe leave Then there will be no feeling So I’ll tell you now Don’t cry for me When I lose all feeling
