Numb lyrics

I really love this song. Everyone is stressed and pressured by those who they love or care deeply for. So shrug it off and try to move on.

I feel sorry 4 the girl in the video tryin' to be someone she's not thats what the song is about. It's saying that someone else is saying for you to be someone your not. I love the videobut that poor girl in it she is so depreesed. It really is sought of like my life, i moved to a driffrent place i did not anyone or have any friends. I went to a new school and some girls wanted me to be there friends so as i did i accepted there invertation. But i knew they wanted me to be someone i wase'ent they were kinda pulling me into there group but i found other friends but still stuck with the other girls. So to try and get me back one of them invited me to her party so i accepted. But than she turned into a bitch [and im calling her that cuase' she actedlike one] she was saying i loved boys which i did'ent she called me names and said i was stingey[ha! She obvioulsy diden't know what that ment! ] in the end she reduced me to tears cuase' well being a stupid bitch to me and saying mean things got me upset. But lucky i had other friends cuase' they all comfeted me while i was cryin'. But before i cried i said 'if ya going to trat me like crap and try turn me into someone im not im not going to your stupid low life party' that upset her but she upset me. Now the hoildays almost over and school coming closer im not nervous about going back cuase' i have a close circle of friends and if ever need someone to tell a secret or just hang out with i've always got someone. So for everyone out there who is feeling like they got preesure on them to be someone your not make sure you have someone you trust or a friend who will except you for who you are not who your not. [sorry if this was to long but you know just telling something plz comment back]

This song means a lot to me - now more than ever. I'm leaving for college in two years and my mom is still trying to control everything that i do. She searches my room, reads any paper she finds, goes through all my stuff, texts my friends on my phone pretending to be me just to see what kind of information she can get... Its ridiculous! I've gotten to the point where i've had my best friend hide my sketchbooks at her house because my work is a bit dark, and my mom would never allow "devil worship" in the house. Its not! Its just.. What i felt when i drew it... Like the one with a gun to the head...

But anyway, she tries controlling everything. She wants me to be the perfect little christian housewife/mommy, and i don't want to be. For one, i'm studying to be wiccan (and keeping that under wraps from her), i couldn't care less about getting married right now, and i don't want kids. I take care of my little brother enough to know its too much work for me on top of everything else.

She sees what she wants to see, and i just let her believe it. I'm just not really what she sees anymore. Its sad when you leave the house, get to where you're going, then change you're clothes or call up whoever you're really meeting just because its not "mother approved" even when its not bad at all.
