[Verse 1]
FNot numb, but not feeling too much
Unfazed on the Gdays I should break down
Am'Cause I've seen everything
Every coast and Gevery weather
FOld eyes getting wise from the growth
I'm too tired to be Gtied to my woes now
AmYou loved me suffering
Hate to tell you Gthings are better
[Pre-Chorus]
FMet in the summer, started going Gunder, Amoh
You said it was Gthen or never
FOld wounds recovered one after anGother, Amoh
                 N.C.
Hate to tell you things are better
[Chorus]
FYou loved me suffering
But I could Gtake the pain
AmSorry I broke the chain
Hate to tell you Gthings are better
FYou loved me suffering
But I've seen Geverything
AmSorry I broke the chain
Hate to tell you Gthings are better
[Post-Chorus]
FOh-oh-oh-oh, oh-Goh
AmOh-oh-oh-oh, oh-Goh
[Verse 2]
FI'm done always giving too much
'Cause you take everyGthing, turn it around
AmTwisted up all I said
Every word and Gevery letter
[Pre-Chorus]
FDead in the summer, got me going Gunder, Amoh
I said it was Gnow or never
FOld wounds recovered, one after anGother, Amoh
Hate to tell you Gthings are better
[Chorus]
FYou loved me suffering
But I could Gtake the pain
AmSorry I broke the chain
Hate to tell you Gthings are better
FYou loved me suffering
But I've seen Geverything
AmSorry I broke the chain
Hate to tell you Gthings are better

Not numb, but not feeling too much

Unfazed on the days I should break down
