Numb Lyrics

I saw you cry today
The pain may fill you
I saw you shy away
The pain will not kill you

You made me smile today
You spoke with many voices
We travelled miles today
Shared expressions voiceless

It has to end
Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

It has to end to begin

Began an end today
Gave and got given
You made a friend today
Kindred soul cracked spirit

It has to end to begin

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

It had to end to begin

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

Living in your head
Without anything to numb you
Living on the edge
Without anything to numb you

I heard about Sia just 13 minutes ago, but already her songs are stuck in my head. She's so talented. Her songs are beautiful.

I think of a dear friend across many oceans to whom I talk on the phone when I hear this song. She's been through tough times, has turned to things to numb her down.

You made me smile today You spoke with many voices We travelled miles today Shared expressions voiceless.

such a sad and yet hopeful song. Makes me cry sometimes.

I honestly have no idea what this song really means.. But I do know that I love it =) It's so sad and just calming. It's probably one of my favourite songs by Sia and the lyrics do seem really deep, if only I could figure them out!

"It has to end to begin"

That line moves me... It almost feels like she's trying to saying he/she needs to stop what they're doing eg. stop taking drugs/cheating/lying... whatever it may be for them to start again and continue on with whatever it is they have with each other

i think this song is about having to deal with something like a breakup. and you have to deal with it and go through the pain without anything to numb you. and even though the situation sucks you have to go on with your life. and you have to end (like the relationship) to begin the rest of your life. that's what im getting out of the song.
