This song came from the angst of life. Our day to day lives can become so monotonous, just caught in the grind. It's easy to forget that invincible feeling of youth, where the world was so attainable and everyone was going to be something big and amazing. But one day you wake up and you realize that everything has changed and you have changed with it. And in the process you have become Numb. What do you do when you make that realization?
lyrics
When I was young, in my mind I knew the feeling of Flight.
Because in my Dreams
I could Fly
It seemed so Happy
A Sea of Hope
But I grew up and Lost Touch
Now I don't really ever Dream that much, No
The Stress and the Bills just add up
Tired all the time and I never catch up
These days I'm just
Numb
Caught in the Grind, Life's got me down
I'm just spinning around and around and around
I know there's Light buried inside me
Chasing tails, running wild and Free
with the boy and the hope
I used to be
It's not too late, I feel it still
Calling out my name
My Will
The dream's not dead, It's just ahead
the Light's not fading
Hold onto me
I'm Numb
I don't wanna be Numb
No, I Don't wanna, I don't wanna be Numb

The variety of sound is amazing. These guys really know how to melt faces. Plus, Shake the Dope out is just about as fun as writing music gets. The Muddy Creek Kids
If you haven't heard these guys yet, you aren't really living. Their take on rock blues is Freaking Epic! Check out their cover of Born Under a Bad Sign. Albert King is smiling for sure! The Muddy Creek Kids
Surf, 60s rock, some psychedelia, you'll find a little bit of it all with these guys...and it freaking rocks! Awesome leads, driving beats, and the vocals marry it all perfectly. Love these dudes! The Muddy Creek Kids
Italian stoner powerhouse Tenebra has the heft of Sabbath and the hooks of Saint Vitus in their powerfully imposing tunes. Bandcamp New & Notable May 8, 2022
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
