Numb
Speech Patterns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What can I do?
Life's lost its spark, please tell me
Does it speak to you?
My heart's gone deaf, my lungs are failing
Faithful envy takes its toll
My heart, my soul
It's all for you, it's all for you
I wanna feel something
Lately I can barely stand
I wanna feel something
A sign of life
Maybe someday you'll be with me
Until then I'll numb the pain
Sweet serenity, don't forget me
All in due time

Maybe tides shift only for you…

I can't see the rising sun behind these fading eyes
Relapsing thoughts of what I should've done before you ran me dry
Oh, I tried to face the world alone
But I can't, and I won't

I wanna feel something
Lately I can barely stand
I wanna feel something
A sign of life
Maybe someday you'll be with me
Until then I'll numb the pain
Sweet serenity, don't forget me
All in due time

Maybe someday you'll be with me
Until then I'll numb the pain
Sweet serenity, don't forget me
Here from now on

Faith can't reverse what's been done
Fate bends to the will of none

I wanna feel something
Lately I can barely stand
I wanna feel something
A sign of life
Maybe someday you'll be with me
Until then I'll numb the pain




Sweet serenity, don't forget me
All in due time

Overall Meaning

In "Numb" by Speech Patterns, the artist expresses a sense of emotional detachment and numbness that he feels in the absence of someone he loves deeply. He seems to be in a dark and desperate place, seeking some form of emotional connection or validation, and is unable to find it. The opening lines indicate that the artist has lost his spark and is unable to hear or feel anything around him. He is suffering from faithful envy, which could be interpreted as a longing for something or someone that he once had but has now lost.


The verses highlight the artist's sense of loneliness and isolation, with imagery focused on his physical and emotional struggles. He can barely stand and has difficulty facing the world alone. He seems to regret not having done something before the person he loves "ran him dry." The chorus is a desperate plea for some sort of feeling or sign of life, with the artist hoping that someday he will be reunited with his love. Until then, he will numb the pain in a state of sweet serenity.


The final lines of the song suggest that despite his pain and desperation, the artist still holds on to the hope that fate will eventually bend to his will. Overall, "Numb" is a deeply personal and emotionally charged song about loss, loneliness, and the search for validation and meaning in life.

Can the band/Eric confirm this? Lol



霧の真珠光沢

...А я пущусь в полет, за берега Бесформенного мрака, чтобы всех Освободить. Попытку предприму Один... опасный этот шаг никто, Со мною не разделит!"...

Music of my feelings
... and I am happy that there is.
..to where I can immerse my soul, and bathe in the ocean of my experiences, in the depths of her feelings.
Paint your sun in the colors of this music.
I’m inside to shiver ... and it's hard to control my emotions when listening.

I am grateful for such tracks ...
... in the heart, with trepidation, love.

Salute from Russia ... another highlight, among the dark kingdom.

When he started screaming my jaw dropped because the pairing of singing and those screams blew my mind. I'm DEFINITELY keeping an ear out for these guys, this was wicked.

I can't stop listening to this song. I just love how real it is (if that makes sense) and the lyrics are so beautiful. Eric's voice is so unbelievably powerful and the band is great too. I think they will make it really far if they will go on like this!!
