Numb

Don't move, don't talk out of time
Don't think, don't worry, everything's just fine
Just fine.

Don't grab, don't clutch, don't hope for too much
Don't breathe, don't achieve or grieve without leave.

Don't check, just balance on the fence
Don't answer, don't ask, don't try an' make sense.

Don't whisper, don't talk, don't run if you can walk
Don't cheat, compete, don't miss the one beat.

Don't travel by train, don't eat, don't spill
Don't piss in the drain, don't make a will.

Don't fill out any forms, don't compensate
Don't cower, don't crawl, don't come around late
Don't hover at the gate.

Don't take it on board, don't fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you're getting bored
(I feel numb)
(I feel numb)
(Too much is not enough).

Don't change your brand, don't listen to the band
Don't gape, don't ape, don't change your shape
(I feel numb)
Have another grape
(Too much is not enough)
(Gimme some more)
(A piece of me, baby).

(I feel numb)
Don't plead, don't bridle, don't shackle, don't grind
(Gimme some more)
Don't curve, don't swerve, lie, die, serve
(I feel numb).

(I feel numb)
Don't theorize, realize, polarize
(Gimme all you got)
Chance, dance, dismiss, apologize
(Too much is not enough).

Don't spy, don't lie, don't try
Imply, detain, explain, start again
(I feel numb).

(I feel numb)
Don't triumph, don't coax, don't cling, don't hoax
Don't freak, peak, don't leak, don't speak
(I feel numb).

(I feel numb)
Don't project, don't connect, protect
Don't expect, suggest
(I feel numb)
Don't project, don't connect, protect
Don't expect, suggest
(I feel numb).

Don't struggle, don't jerk, don't collar, don't work
Don't wish, don't fish, don't teach, don't reach
(Too much is not enough).

Don't borrow, don't break, don't fence, don't steal
Don't pass, don't press, don't try, don't feel
(Gimme some more).

(I feel numb)
Don't touch, don't dive, don't suffer, don't rhyme
Don't fantasize, don't rise, don't die
(I feel numb).

Don't project, don't connect, protect
(I feel numb)
Don't expect, suggest
Don't project, don't connect, protect
(I feel numb)
Don't expect, suggest
(I feel numb).
