I am cold
close your eyes
Give me your soul
junkie's bonfire fix
and the heart it clings like death
to taste your neck
against its cage
black silk feast a burning rose
turn away from me
let me go
drawn and chased through the maze
crazed dreams of pain
I am cold
close your eyes
I am cold
drunk on love alive at last
caress or razor its
gone so fast
it is my secret I cant take this no more
Numb is a very unique band. There music is a little on the noisy side, but its very good noisy music. This song has kind of a gloomy sound, and when your listening to it, you can hear kind of what sounds like faint moans and whispers in the background, it kind of makes you listen closer. The vocals to me kinda sound like a ghoulish creature whispering in your ear. Very unique to say the least. The various sounds of most of NUMB"S songs are quite distinct as well, which is why I like them. Good song, If you like industrial music, you might like this.
This was an attempt at a love song, from within the claustrophobic idiom of "industrial". It was also written with a female singer in mind, but that didn't work out. The mix that showed up on 'Wasted Sky' is a tremendous disappointment; at best it is unfinished, at worst it was sabotaged... Don later did a dance mix of this, which had lots of ear candy, but really was even further from the intended intimacy of this. I intend to re-record this one day...
