Numb

(album: Ripe - 2007)

I'm in surgery
It's an emergency
It just occurred to me
Ironically I caught a disease
They take a piece of me
Enjoy the scenery
Counting back from ten but
I will never fall asleep

I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come

I'm writing pop songs
Done it for so long
Sometimes I dream about
A chorus that's so clever it's dumb
And now they're telling me
The music industry
You can stay if you behave
Be a good boy go to sleep

I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come

So if you're asking me
What you mean to me
This is a dream to me
A theme for me
I gotta believe
In what you're telling me
In what you're selling me
In what's compelling me to feel
The only reason I need
Here comes the drum beat
I'm moving my feet
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
And a guiter chord
I feel so sure
The only reason I need
The only reason I need

I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come

I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
