Numb - The Cure (Wild Mood Swings)

Enjoy!

Lyrics:
Yeah this is how it ends
After all these years
Tired of it all
Hopelessly helplessly broken apart
He finally falls
He doesn't want to think
Doesn't want to feel
Doesn't want to know what's going on
Says there's nothing he can do will change anything
He doesn't want to know what's going wrong
Because he's in love with a drug
One that makes him numb
One that stops him feeling at all
He's in love with a drug
Forget everyone
He really doesn't care anymore
Anymore...

Yeah this is how it ends
After all this time
Everything just fades away
Worn-out and empty and all alone
With nothing left to say
Oh it's all too big to make a difference
It's all too wrong to make it right
Yeah everything is too unfair
Everything too much to bear
He doesn't have the strength left for the fight
Says all he wants is the drug
The one that makes him numb
The one that stops him feeling at all
He just wants to take the drug
Forget everyone
He doesn't want to care anymore
Just keeps loving the drug
The one that makes him numb
The one that stops him feeling at all
Just keeps loving the drug
The drug that he's become
He isn't really here anymore...

And that makes me cry

I love the fact that The Cure have a song for every emotion. And how they kind of have a pattern for making an album emotional and then the next will be a happy album.

At last, this song is here again and the long wait is now over..i really love this song so much because it touches me for some reason and it can really relate to a lot of people..the cure did an awesome job when they created this song..NUMB is one of the best songs of The Cure..Kudos!

The sitar is heartbreaking...

[MissCureCrazy]

It's insane how this is a more recent album yet they haven't turned into today's garbage like most old bands that try to stay cureent. It's still essential Cure!

Yeah this is how it ends After all this time Everything just fades away Worn-out and empty and all alone With nothing left to say Oh it's all too big to make a difference It's all too wrong to make it right Yeah everything is too unfair Everything too much to bear He doesn't have the strength left for the fight i can truly say with all my heart i feel this exact way on an everyday basis!

[jeimikaze]

not sure if this song is about kurt cobain and whatnot, but it is definitely about how one succumbs to how hard life can truly be, and how after battly after battle, one finally gives up. whatever a persons "drug" is..ie..actual drugs, music, sex, alcohol, pain...whatever..the person just gets to a point in their life where no matter what they say or do, or how hard they try...nothing in the end matters. so they escape into their drug so they can get away from the real pain they have in life

i dont know where i would be without the music of The Cure.

[angelblue1912]

[DizzyPuke]

WMS was a great album to showcase Bob's talent in playing violin...but no one recognized it.

[cmclsrnsee]

[HallucigeniaIV]

I love the... hmm, east asian-like sound of this song...
