Numb - Halie Loren

«Get it out of your head,» they said

«Don't you wanna forget?»

«We know you wanna be numb, come on…

Shut it off just like everyone has done»

They’ll tell you just what you need to know

They’ll erase what you don’t

They’re looking out for your every step

Is the intent to control or protect?

Smile, it’s okay

They can make the (whole) big, bad world go away…

Shut it off shut it off shut it off

(CH)

Don’t see, don’t hear

Don’t know, don’t fear

Now don’t you feel better now, my dear?

Shouldn’t our hunger for truth be calmed?

We’ve been without it so long

So many seem not to mind it now

The image of integrity whittled down

Don’t we (all) deserve

To live in a dream, feeling safe and undisturbed…

Shut it off, shut it off, shut it off…

Don’t see, don’t hear

Don’t know, don’t fear

Now don’t you feel better now, my dear?

Get it out of your head, get it out of your head

Just close your eyes and be led, the age of reason is dead…

Get it out of your head, get it out of your head

Swallow what you’ve been fed, the age of reason is dead

The age of reason is dead, reason is dead, reason is dead…
