Numb lyrics

When I woke up, I couldn’t feel my arms
They felt as if they weren’t my own

I don’t remember if I really slept at all
I might have been out building walls

How can I stand and hold up this great wall?
And if it falls then I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight

This morning found me out of action and alone
I’d lost command of all I thought I owned
My friends all called me to make sure I was well
But I never made it to the phone

How can I stand and hold up this great wall?
And if it falls then I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight

All this potential has messed up my whole day
A storm of times and overlapping things
This information has left me overwhelmed
I’ve no idea where I should go

How can I stand and hold up these great walls
And if it falls and I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight
