Numb Lyrics by Ben Lee

Ripe

0

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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 drumbeat
I'm moving my feet
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
And a guitar chord
I feel so sure
The only reason I need
The only reason I need

[Chorus]
I refuse to go numb
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

[Chorus]
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
Let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
