Numb

Walking on three legs, my foundation is unstable
A pile of twisted pegs, that I use to build my table
But it doesn't stand tall, no, not at all
I tried to build a bridge, but you built a wall

Where were you when we fell to the ground
Pounding on your door only to keep me out
You say that I hurt you, but I didn't even know where it all came from
'Cause your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb

I heard every pound that you made at my door
Every single noise I chose to ignore
It never crossed my mind
I burned the single place where we had it all

Where were you when I fell to the ground
Pounding on your door only to keep me out
You say that I don't try, well guess I know where I got that from
'Cause your presence is numb
Your presence is numb
Your presence is numb
Your presence is numb
Your presence is numb

We had a chance but it faded away
Locked in our cages, not wanting to break
But then I realized the pain that we faced
Could only be healed by the power of grace
You came to me and said you failed to relate
And I realized that my actions were a mistake
So now we feel as we were always the same
Ready to start a new chapter today

Where were we when we fell to the ground
Pounding on our door only to keep us out
We said that we were both right in our ways, selfishness is dumb
'Cause your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
'Cause your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
Your presence was numb
