Numb & Dumb Lyrics

Lyric discussion by xxbreetxx 

Cover art for Numb & Dumb lyrics by Otep

i'm pretty sure this song is about heroin, as well as sex with other women. cocaine isn't a narcotic, but heroin is, and it's probably the most used of all the narcotics.

obviously, she refers to narcotics in this song, and needing another dose (meaning it must be a highly addictive drug). also, she implies that this drug makes her 'numb and dumb,' and that's what heroin, as well as many other narcotics, do.

"I Took His Wife Into My Mouth Like A Slice Of Wedding Cake I Went Back For Extra Helpings & Then I Cleaned My Plate

Still Covered In Her Yolk, The Wet Drug Of My Addiction" i believe this is the part where she refers to sexual acts with other women.

anyway, that's my guess. great song. love otep. <3
