Album: All At Once (2011)

  • I've been in a daze
    It seems like days that I've been waiting
    For this dream to pass
    It goes so fast
    It seems nothing lasts
    I think I've lost something

    Stuck here with these people
    While you wake I crush our bodies in one space
    I feel your heart blood from my tongue
    I wonder where you've gone

    And the ever turning, spinning wheel of people, places lies I feel
    The restless beat of the sleepless night to come
    I just want to be numb
    Just want to be numb

    Hopeless these three years like smoking years
    I go from place to place
    Just endlessly and half asleep
    Like I'm falling alone at some endless breach

    I don't know where I am
    I don't know what I've done
    I just go over it again and again and again
    I can't sleep at night
    I cant breathe
    But If I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind

    And the ever present pit I feel
    I'm turning on some spinning wheel
    Of faces and the scenes I see
    And none of it seems real to me
    Just the bleary haze of the morning still to come

    I just want to be numb
    Just want to be numb
    I just want to be numb
    I just want to be numb
    I just want to be numb Writer/s: MIKEL FRANS JOLLETT, NOAH HARMON
