Numb
Marina & the Diamonds Lyrics
One track mind, like a goldfish
Stuck inside my petri dish
I can't breathe, and I can't smile
This better be worth my while
I feel numb most of the time
Lower I get the higher
I'll climb, and I will wonder why
I got dark only to shine
Looking for the golden life
C-C-C-Cry
Forggle families, foggle friends
That's how it started, and how it ends
I can't open up and cry, 'cause I've been silent all my life
I feel numb most of the time
The more I get the higher
I'll climb, and I will wonder why
I get dark only
To shine
Looking for the golden light
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice
C-C-C-Cry
C-C-C-Cry
Ooh, I get dark
Oh, and I'm in hell
I need a friend
Ooh, but I can't yell
Yeah, I'm no good
No good to anyone
'Cause all I care about
Is being number one
Shine
Looking for the golden light
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice
Shine
Looking for the golden light
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice
Sacrifice
I feel numb most of the time
The more I get the higher
I'll climb, and I will wonder why
I get dark only
To shine
And I'll light up the sky
Stars that burn the brightest
Fall so fast and pass you by
Puff like empty lighters
I feel numb most of the time
The more I get the higher
I'll climb, and I will wonder why
I got dark only
To shine
And I'll light up the sky
Stars that burn the brightest
Fall so fast and pass you by
Spark like empty lighters
Dum dum dum, duh dah da

One track mind like a goldfish.
Stuck inside my petric dish.
I can’t breathe, and I can’t smile.
This better be worth my while...
I feel numb most of the time.
‘Lower I get the higher I climb.
And I will wonder why
I got dark only to SHINE!
Looking for the golden light!
Oh, it’s a reasonable sacrifice!
Forgo family, forgo friends..
How it started, how it ends.
I can’t open up and cry,
‘cus I’ve been silent all my life!
I feel numb most of the time.
‘Lower I get, the higher I climb.
And I will wonder why,
I got dark only to SHINE!
Looking for the golden light!
Oh, it’s a reasonable sacrifice!
Ooh, I get dark...
oh, and I’m in hell....
I need a friend... Ooh...
But I can’t yell...
Yeah, I’m no good....
No good to anyone.
Cus’ all I care about...
Is being number one!
SHINE!
Looking for the golden light!
Oh it’s a reasonable sacrifice
SHINE!
Looking for the golden light!
Oh, it’s a reasonable sacrifice!
SACRIFICE!
I feel numb most of the time.
‘Lower I get, the higher climb.
And I will wonder why
I got dark only to
Shine, and I light up the sky
Stars that burn the brightest,
Fall so fast, and pass you by.
Cough like empty lighters!
I feel numb most of the time.
‘Lower I get, the higher I climb.
And I will wonder why
I get dark only to
shine, and I light up the sky!
Stars that burn the brightest,
Falls so fast, and pass you by.
Spark like empty lighters!
