Numb
Alanis Morissette
I feel smothered and encumbered
And defeated and drawn
Disappointed, over-extended
And frustrated and shaken
This over-giving, over-loving
This care taking goes on
With no chance of intermission
I'll be checked out, I'll be gone
Have to remove myself from sensation
Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
I feel anxious
I am nervous, I am bored
I'm overwhelmed
Rather be out of my gourd
Have to remove myself from sensation
Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
I am lonely
I feel hungry and unloved
I feel angry
I am livid, need a hug
Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
