My eyes are open now and I can finally see

That I am suffering for the man I used to be

With my head in the clouds and nowhere else to turn

I'm just scratching at my skin for a sense of relief, like you wouldn't believe

Everything I touch just rots with me

It rots away like an empty grave

Nothing but a sunken wreck of oceans under seas

We are the lost and the low, we can't sit with the kings and queens

We are the wretched and the bruised

We sway by a tightened noose

Are we Numb or are we Numbered?

I'm blindfolded by a man in a mask

It's gotta make you ask; is it false or is it true?

I can feel your fingers wrapped around my throat and I can't breathe

I am the lost and the low, I can't sit with the kings and queens

I am the wretched and the bruised

Watch me sway by a noose

Are we Numb or are we Numbered?

A golden road is all I know

A golden road will kill me slow

Like a vampire this is just taking the life right out of me

And like a broken sunset, I just want to be free

Are we Numb or are we Numbered?

(We'll sing it, we'll sing it, I just want to be free)

Are we Numb or are we Numbered?

I just want to be free
