She Can't Feel Anything Anymore - Paula Cole

She was on the floor, her face was in her mother’s arms

She had said that she’d been out late with the boys

Just another evening, like every other evening

Everything is all the same it seems

Danny always called her on the phone for no special reason

Apparently

He could never tell her what it was, he suffered silently

Quitely

Just another evening, but his hands just couldn’t be still

He can’t control it and he cannot tell her why

Feel the beaded knuckles, feel the snap inside

See the rush of terror in her eye

She can’t feel it

She can’t feel it

She can’t feel anything anymore

He tried painfully, he begged for her forgiveness on his knees

She gave gracefully, but inside

But inside

She still bleeds
