Numb by Sarah BoomThe thought of you makes my skin crawl
And the words you said to me echo in my mind
I've become numb to emotion
Something, I was hoping would heal over time.
I don't know how I ever loved you
Or how I was so blind
I'm so ashamed to admit
I believed the wall of lies you hid behind
Every time you hid your phone
and every message you erased
Should have rightly justified to me
That In your heart, I'd been replaced
Now years have slowly passed us by
And though my bruised face has healed
I can never let my guard down
For It seems my fate is sealed
Every lie you ever told me
Every girl you ever had
Every time you called me crazy
And every time you made sure I felt bad
Every time you raised a hand to me
And every mark I hid
All of it amounts to nothing now
And I'm not sure it ever did
Why did I stick around so long
And let you beat me down
Why did I hide, all the tears I cried
