Numb

Alanis Morissette

I feel slow and encumbered and Defeated and drawn
Disappointed, over-extended and frustrated and shaken
This overhealing, over-loving, discontentment goes on
This entrancement. Intuition.
I'll be checked out, I'll be gone

Have to remove myself from sensation

Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can not sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb

I feel anxious, I feel nervous and unloved
I'm overwhelmed, rather be out of my gourd

Have to remove myself from sensation

Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can not sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb

I am lonely, I feel hungry and unloved
I feel elated. I am livid. And ...

Here comes the feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can not sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
