Analysis of Numb



Shivers have been glued to my spine,
I need to open my eyes to face the truth ...
Destiny seems to be seeking for a proof,
I bow before the gods to show I am fine.

Fever has been stamped to my soul,
Feel so strange when I look at you …
Fire in my heart has gone through,
My corpse summons a chaotic fall.

Romantic is the way you look dumb,
I hate it when you act like an ass,
Makes me think you are a dumbass .
That makes me go totally numb.
