    Lyrics:
    NUMB
    When all is said and done
    Tell me how to write this
    Tell me how to fight this war
    I’ll keep marching on
    Like a broken robot
    Money back guarantee
    I’m in your custody
    But I am not a criminal
    I can be your next big thing
    Look at what I’ve become
    Silly little monster, should have just held my tongue
    I hate the feeling like this
    Up on my shoulders
    Pushing the pressure down on me
    You think you want the best for me
    But nothing really matters
    If you force it, it won’t come
    I guess I’m feeling numb
    I guess I’m feeling numb
    Sometimes I wish I could fly
    Through a secret trapped door
    Into another life
    Bury my head in the sand
    I don’t want to grow up
    La la la la la
    I hate the feeling like this
    Up on my shoulders
    Pushing the pressure down on me
    You think you want the best for me
    But nothing really matters
    If you force it, it won’t come
    I guess I’m feeling numb
    I guess I’m feeling numb
    I’ll play the game
    I’ll do everything you tell me
    All the losers win in the end
    I hate the feeling like this
    Up on my shoulders
    Pushing the pressure down on me
    You think you want the best for me
    But nothing really matters
    If you force it, it won’t come
    I guess I’m feeling numb
    I guess I’m feeling numb

      The song is Numb. The expression is blank. It tells one story. She's feeling nothing. But I like the appreciation of the song.

    • @wwefanatic33
      @wwefanatic33 6 років тому +7

      By that I meant her facial expressions not only in this video, but in general. In every video she has done her acting is so good that you can really feel what she's saying. In this particular case, it makes you feel that emptyness

    One of the saddest parts of this perfect illustration of anxiety and depression is that at the end of the video. When Meg finally confronts the people around her on how they make her feel, you can still see fingers extending to her as if she said nothing at all...gave me chills

    Have struggled with depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety for over a decade. Self medicating help but lead to addiction. I’m trying to repair myself piece by piece but it’s tough as hell especially with a wife and son to support.

      Her lyrics are SO BPD and relatable. And to top it, she's gorgeous to boot.
      Meg Myers is one of the best modern artists. She truly puts *everything* out there in her lyrics. She's just herself, and that's what I love about her.

      Cody Jumper mainstream artists today are only where they are bc of the major soul-sucking record labels that they are under who market them like products to the masses and that’s why they don’t necessarily have to possess a lot of talent. So the only probable reason real talented artists like Meg don’t get as big is bc they didn’t sign on to the corporate music machine and I hope she never does bc her artistry and person would both sure as hell be comprised!

There are a lot of great singers out there, but Meg's ability to write is what sets her apart from most artists these days. Her phrasing and melodic vocal hooks are insane. Her songs are catchy enough to stick in your head, but deep and passionate enough to stick in your soul.

      The illumination guided Meg to your radiant essence: In response to Mark, "Jesus proclaimed, 'Aren't there twelve hours in daylight? One who walks during the day does not stumble, for they see the world's light.'"
      Why is this significant? To understand, we turn to numerical interpretation, as it aligns with the given context.
      Consider the song "Numb" (a nod to 'number' via an alphabetic acronym), symbolizing being unaware or concealed from enlightenment. Converting "Numb" to its alphabetic positions yields a product of 7,644 from the letters (14, 21, 13, and 2).
      Engaging with the alphabet leads us to the digits within words. We observe 4112, closely connected to you and your identity.
      Subtracting 4112 from 7644 results in: 3532.
      Drawing nearer, and with your acknowledgment of the daytime's trustworthiness, coupled with your age of 65, we reduce it by the temporal grains to arrive at: 3467.
      Recollecting your revelation a month prior: "How am I just now discovering this?" prompts us back to the song's debut, marking its place as the second track on her sophomore album.
      Hence, we handle three additional figures, 122, deducting from temporal span to reach 3345.
      Yet, how do we approach the 12th hour despite the sum of 3+3+3+3 equating to 12?
      Given that L is the twelfth alphabet letter and the twelfth verse discusses Lazarus being unaware or "numb" to daylight,
      We delve into Enlightenment. The force that introduced Meg into your existence, thus, by the 12th epoch or the glow of my self-constructed revelation, we seek the answer: Subtracting 12 from 3345, as if the cycle of precipitation, returns us directly to you, Mr. Waters. 3333.
      Not really that big of a deal but I heard whisper of a track having to do with the 12 th hour . would make since given. Meg recent return from her 33 birthday walk about which was the age at Jesus baptism. Will Meg reach the final hour in her career before she decides to dedicate the rest of her life back to that which she inherited the light yet because of the darkness crowding out the light and unfortunate circumstances bringing Meg back to where she began to loose faith?
      We will let Little J from Smoky Mountain get out of that 12 wheeler and tell you why she decided to dedicated her music to helping people feel emotion.

    This is a sacred album to me, one of the albums that saved my life.
    Meg has been and grown along my side. I feel like we were affected and processing in sync.
    I would love to let her know that I'm proud of her, not the talent per se, the growth. It's hard, especially when reinforcement of other's expectations are the only voices you hear over yours. She's come in contact with her voice several times, and you can see it crawling out her walls to greet her. It's remarkable. And sadly not enough people are told how beautifully far they've come. We need to tell each how proud we are of each other more often.

      The point of my comment is Meg as an artist isn't as popular as someone of her caliber should be. She is very talented, her lyrics are very good, and her music is well produced. Yet, she isn't as popular as other contemporary artists. The audio release of this song from a month ago only has 178,000 views, her most popular video on here from 4 years ago hasn't even reached 10 million, and her debut album peaked at number 79 on the billboard 100.
      To me that's underappreciated.

    When you hear the music exploding when she says the word "numb". And the music contrasts with her way of saying that word. It's almost as if the music screams for her (for you). Also the scene where she runs and the camera seems as if it's falling, I literally felt like I was falling, I felt trapped, like running was useless. Also I felt like the truth of those facts set me free. She's amazing!

Being 7 years clean off heroin and the needle, I know all to well the feeling of no longer being just myself, especially with my family and friends constantly trying to steer me in different directions. Like the songs says, I know they want the best for me, but sometimes I just want to scream "FREEDOM" like William Wallace and run. The feeling of being numb from no longer controling your own life and emotions, this song hits perfectly.

Many themes here, but my take is her display of trying to live a normal life without everyone’s interference. Thus making her “Numb” to life and accepting the melancholy it entails… Hits home!
    Her running into the hills as a last ditch effort to escape is more powerful than any words I could muster.
