Exploring the emotional complexities of a deteriorating relationship, this composition delves into feelings of detachment and growing indifference. The lyrics depict a protagonist grappling with their partner's decision to leave, resulting in a sense of numbness and coldness, symbolic of emotional withdrawal. The repeated plea 'I won't be behind you' suggests an unwillingness to follow in the same path or make the same mistakes. Conversely, the shift towards 'I will be behind you' indicates acceptance and possible reconciliation. However, the song also hints at self-deception with lines like 'you say it, but you won't admit it', suggesting that truth and honesty are crucial for healing and moving forward. Ultimately, "Numb & Getting Colder" serves as poignant commentary on the human condition when faced with love's trials and tribulations.
Numb & Getting Colder
Lyrics
Make your decisions now
Weight it up
Facing a long road down, oh
Keeping your head above
Saying the same thing twice, won't make it right
Head up in your desires, but
Maybe we're looking for different way
Does it matter when you act like this yeah
Yeah, you got into something
Now you took control of you, oh
'Cause you say it, but you won't admit it, oh
Numb and getting colder, physical existence
Say something
Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you
Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you
Not gonna tell you stop, is it up
Bring all emotions back, stop taking it out on her
I'm gonna lose no pride, giving up
? I've got but
Maybe you're looking for a different way
Does it matter when you act like this
Yeah, you got into something
Now you took control of you, oh
'Cause you say it, but you won't admit it, oh
Numb and getting colder, physical existence
Say something
Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you
Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you
I am feeling closer my mind weighin' to deep
The fragrance of love we left behind
I've ? some place
Slow down to the second, revive
And just so instant
? what they survive
So ? be
Searching where to be
I will be behind you
And I can be near
I will be behind you
Searching where to be
I will be behind you
And I can be near
I will be behind you
