Numbing Cream
Numbing Cream: A Melodic Tale of Longing
Lyrics
Put on that numbing cream now, come go to town with me
Inviting someone to apply a numbing cream and accompany the speaker.
You won't regret it one bit, there is so much to see
Assuring that the experience will be worthwhile and full of interesting things.
The sweat drips down my forehead, I'm waiting right outside
Expressing nervousness or anticipation while waiting for someone outside.
I feel sick to my stomach, does my face look white
Feeling physically unwell, possibly due to anxiety, and questioning appearance.
I think about you all day, when do you think of me
Reflecting on constant thoughts about someone and wondering if the feeling is reciprocated.
Every time I talk to you, my mind starts to scream
Describing heightened emotional response when communicating with the person of interest.
Is there more I can say, don't leave me high and dry
Expressing a desire for more communication and fearing being left without closure.
I wore this nice dress for you, don't look at the sky
Mentioning dressing up for the person and discouraging them from looking away.
Let me get one touch of you before I go
Seeking physical closeness with the person before parting.
I can feel my heartbeat just about to blow
Describing intense physiological reactions, like an elevated heartbeat.
My love is a locked door and you have the key
Comparing love to a locked door, with the other person holding the key.
Do you feel the pressure or is it just me
Questioning if the person feels the pressure or intensity of the situation.
The stars are coming out now, why does this have to end
Expressing reluctance for a pleasant moment to come to an end.
I'm incomplete without you, can we be more than friends
Conveying a sense of incompleteness without the person and a desire for a deeper connection.
Seven billion people, but all I want is you
Amidst a vast population, expressing a singular desire for the person addressed.
You feel the same way towards me, is what you're saying true
Questioning if the person shares the same feelings, seeking confirmation of their truthfulness.
Let me get one touch of you before I go
Reiteration of the desire for physical closeness before departing.
I can feel my heartbeat just about to blow
Re-emphasizing the intense physiological reactions in anticipation.
My love is a locked door and you have the key
Repeating the metaphor of love as a locked door and the person having the key.
Do you feel the pressure or is it just me
Posing a question about whether the person feels the same pressure or intensity.
