Story Behind The Song
Artist: Ashley Nicole
Instrumental available in song list.
This was the first song Ashley Nicole and I wrote and recorded. This was the moment I knew we needed to work together. The downtempo, ambient and dark sound was what we were both looking for.
Song Description
Being with someone that made you feel so many overwhelming emotions that you wind up not feeling anything at all, and becoming 'numb'. Being put in a situation where you have to make a major decision but being so blind to the numerous emotions you are feeling, that it becomes almost impossible to make the decision.

Lyrics
"Being numb"
Come with me I can't hold on
I won't be free no not for long
Being numb can kill your mind
Leaving you so far behind
I cant stay still and lost inside
I see your face it leaves me blind
There's something deep inside my mind
That pulls me from the grasp of time
I fill the void that crushes slowly
Is knowing you a crime?
I feel that time is running out
This pit of darkness filled with doubt
When will I know if this is real
This pain I cannot feel?
Here it is I'm here again
To make this choice I can't pretend
I cant stay still, and lost inside
I see your face you make me blind
There's something deep inside my mind
That pulls me from the grasp of time
I fill the void that crushes slowly
Is knowing you a crime
I feel that time is running out
This pit of darkness filled with doubt
When will I know if this is real
This pain I cannot feel
You can't make me stay
You made it deep inside my mind
It pulled me from the grasp of time
I filled the void cause you pushed slowly
You made me lose my mind
I know that time, it has run out
This pit of darkness, I can't get out
When will I know if this is real
This pain you made me feel
