For God's Sake, Numb My Pain

 

I'm still lost, I'm still not better

I found someone new, maybe to numb the pain,

I don't know

 

But it still hurts; I still feel,

I feel everything, all the time

I don't want to feel things,

I don't like hurting, I really don't

But I do this to myself nonetheless,

I still make myself hurt

 

Simply because I hate myself.
