Desensitized

by The Ones You Forgot

on Desensitized (2021)

[Verse 1]
I'll smile 'til my gums bleed
Before I let you see just what is wrong with me
Scraped my knees on the concrete
I don't feel anything, I think I like it that way
That way, nobody will have to see my pain
Someday, someday it's gonna catch up to me

[Chorus]
Do you know what it's like
To pretend that you're fine?
Come to realize I don't feel like I'm alive
At the scene of the crime
When I look in your eyes
I think it's finally clear that I am desensitized
I'm desensitized

[Verse 2]
Make my way through the hallways
Therе's nothin' but a ghost
I wonder what he knows
Spirit hands crushin' airways
Don't wanna suffocate
But it's thе only way
To feel a little fire
To make a little change
I know I'm capable but you don't understand

[Chorus]
What it's like
To pretend that you're fine
Come to realize I don't feel like I'm alive
At the scene of the crime
When I look in your eyes
I think it's finally clear that I am desensitized
I'm desensitized

[Bridge]
I don't sleep because I'm tired
I sleep because I don't want to be awake
In the world that we're livin' in
I guess I'm goin' through the motions
I don't want every day to feel like it's been stolen

[Chorus]
Do you know what it's like
To pretend that you're fine?
Come to realize I don't feel like I'm alive
(Don't feel like I am alive)
At the scene of the crime
When I look in your eyes
I think it's finally clear that I am desensitized
(Desensitized)
I'm desensitized
