Embracing Shadows: Numbing Souls Amidst Life's Symphony
Lyrics
Countless souls
There are numerous individuals
All believe
All have a belief
That they can't let go
They feel unable to release or let go
As misery strikes
When suffering hits
And starts to take hold
And begins to take control
Why can't we fool ourselves
Questioning why people can't deceive themselves
Write it up
Document it, write about it
Drug them up
Subdue with drugs
Make me numb
To make oneself devoid of feeling
Why
Questioning why
Doesn't anybody want to feel the highs and lows
Is there no desire for experiencing both extremes of emotions?
Suck them dry
Exploit and exhaust others
Of who they really are at all
Strip them of their true essence entirely
Medicated souls
Individuals whose minds are altered by medication
Slight reprieve
A small relief or respite
From reality
From the harshness of reality
As colors go cold
As vibrancy and life fade away
And start to let go
And begin to slip away
Why can't we fool ourselves
Questioning why people can't deceive themselves
Sign them up
Enroll or engage them in something
Drug them up
Subdue with drugs
Make them numb
To make them devoid of feeling
Why
Questioning why
Doesn't anybody want to feel the highs and lows
Is there no desire for experiencing both extremes of emotions?
Suck them dry
Exploit and exhaust others
Of who they really are at all
Strip them of their true essence entirely
Why
Questioning why
Do we hide ourselves among the lame and gray
Why do we conceal ourselves among those who lack vitality and liveliness?
Why
Questioning why
Can't we try to handle anything
Why can't we attempt to manage any situation?
It's ours to blame
The responsibility lies with us
It's ours to blame
The fault or accountability is ours
Make me numb
To make oneself devoid of feeling
Why
Questioning why
Doesn't anybody want to feel the highs and lows
Is there no desire for experiencing both extremes of emotions?
Suck them dry
Exploit and exhaust others
Of who they really are at all
Strip them of their true essence entirely
Why
Questioning why
Doesn't anybody want to feel the highs and lows
Is there no desire for experiencing both extremes of emotions?
Suck them dry
Exploit and exhaust others
Of who they really are at all
Strip them of their true essence entirely
