Paroles de Numb

I've been warring with myself
I've wrestled these ideas and all these things I've felt
And I don't feel any better
The war goes on, but whatever
We all think too much
I guess I sat here just hoping
That all these things you were throwing
Would reassure my uncertainties

I start to choose a direction
When you shake your head and I question the steps I start to take
And I'm sure the view is breathtaking
If I could only step to that ledge

(Pre-Chorus)
They take a picture of you at the top
Oh, did you smile when the flash went off?

(Chorus)
If I stop to catch my breath
Could you please slow up?
Because it hurts that much
When my lungs are numb
And if I hint at giving in
Remind me I'm strong
And I need to be I start to lose my direction
When you choke on your words
And I question the steps I start to take
Words are not necessary
So instead of that could you maybe
Just let me go my way?

(Repeat Pre-Chorus And Chorus)

I'm naked for the world
And it's chilling to be outside
Where I can't see anything in front of me clearly

It's a right of passage
Like a child in it's adolescence
It's a passing storm
And I can only wait it out
So I wait it out
I wait it out
I wait it out
With or without you

(Repeat Chorus)

I'm naked for the world
And it's chilling to be outside
Where I can't see anything in front of me clearly
I can't see clearly
