Numb (single)

by BUSM

/

about

One of our earliest tracks finally recorded with Austin Nolan in 2021. A song about feeling numb to love until someone comes along and warms you up.

lyrics

Are you talking to me with your eyes
I swear I can't tell what you're doing right now
Look me in my spectacles when you speak
I swear, I just can't make it out

Well we've all got ways to step in line
To keep ourselves in time with everybody else
(In spite of ourselves)
But we all wanna jump ahead of the line
To fight against the rhyme
In spite of everything else

I speak a different language, I speak louder with my hands
Come on over and touch me baby, and you might understand
I'm a gene code and I want something to bite, to keep me high

So I sold my soul to a girl in the spirit of rock and roll
I didn't think she wanted it, but
She called my bluff at a rock and roll show
She called my bluff at a rock and roll show
And she kissed like this, she kissed my lips
She plucked my tongue
And I, I don't feel numb
I don't feel so numb for once, I don't feel so numb for once

Are you speaking wordy-words with your face
I swear, I can't communicate
Do you think I understand what you're saying
With those crazy mouth noises you make

Well we've all got ways to step in line
To keep ourselves in time with everybody else
(In spite of ourselves)
But we all wanna jump ahead of the line
To fight against the rhyme
In spite of everything else

Baby please open the door and kiss me good
If there ever was one thing that we both understood
Yeah, we're gene codes and we want someone to hold
Before we get old

So I sold my soul to a girl in the spirit of rock and roll
I didn't think she wanted it, but
She called my bluff at a rock and roll show
She called my bluff at a rock and roll show
And she kissed like this, she kissed my lips
She plucked my tongue
And I, I don't feel numb
I don't feel so numb for once, I don't feel so numb for once
