I believe the missing word is "uncomfortably" numb
Well this song is a great opener to a great CD (Do Wrong Right). In fact I bought this album soley by it's album art. Somehow it cought my eye enough to buy it with out even knowing what genre it was. When I popped it in my radio I was upset because it sounded real folky almost bluegrassy. Then the lyrics kicked in and caught my attention enough to listen on, I think it was the line
"here she comes
just a skin and bones skeleton
she's food for the crack cocaine"
I absolutely loved the entire album. A great buy!
Enough with the blabber though, this song I thought was about our need to consume, but i get thrown off by the last verse. Oviously he is talking about perscription meds and the personality which is lost by taking them. IDK
Great album and a great song. Cellordore I think your right but you missed the broader subject. Its about the various ways we sell our souls, values, pride, intellect ect... through things like drug addiction, consumerism, and overmedication. The line all hail the greatest of sales, everything inside must be sold is a tongue in cheek double entendre reffering to the marketing excess and one selling his/her own values.
