[Verse 1]

I see a the man in the mirror

I see a blurred out figure

I used to look so different

I guess that time is a killer, huh?

I seen a saint turn sinner

I've seen a man get bitter

Once or twice

[Pre-Chorus]

How could this have happened?

I'm feelin' abandoned

I'm breakin' up

But

[Chorus]

I'm done with thinkin' about it

But my heart won't allow it

I'd rather be numb

I'd rather be numb

To all the pain that has found me

'Cause it's all around me

I'd rather be numb

I'd rather be numb

Numb, numb

[Verse 2]

I feel the walls gettin' thicker

While my strength gettin' thinner, uh

Ooh, I'vе never been a quitter

Whoеver wants to give up now

But now I'm runnin' like a river

I'm runnin' like a river, yeah

Yeah, 'cause

[Chorus]

I'm done with thinkin' about it

But my heart won't allow it

I'd rather be numb

I'd rather be numb

To all the pain that has found me

'Cause it's all around me

I'd rather be numb

I'd rather be numb

Numb, numb

[Bridge]

Won't somebody take this pain

And make it all just go away

I don't care if I'm left with nothin'

'Cause every day repeats the same

It's on my mind all over again, and

[Chorus]

I'm done with thinkin' about it

But my heart won't allow it (Oh)

I'd rather be numb

I'd rather be numb

To all the pain that has found me

'Cause it's all around me

I'd rather be numb (Oh, numb)

I'd rather be numb

(I'd rather be numb, oh-oh)

[Outro]

Ooh, I wish I was numb

I wish I was, I, I

I wish I was numb
