Intro

This document contains lyrics for the song "Numb" by Linkin Park. The song is about feeling constrained and controlled by another person's expectations. Over three verses and choruses, the singer expresses how they have become numb, tired, and want to be true to themselves rather than live up to another's vision of who they should be. The lyrics describe the pressure they feel to walk in another's shoes and how every step is seen as a mistake. In the end, the singer acknowledges they may fail too but knows the other person was also once disappointed.

Intro: Em C G D * 2

Verse 1:

Em C
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
G D
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Em C
Don't know what you're expecting of me
G D C D
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)


Em G C D
Every step I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)

Chorus:

Em C G
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
D Em
I've become so tired so much more aware
C G
I've becoming this all I want to do
D Em
Is be more like me and be less like you

Verse 2:
C
Can't you see that you're smothering me
G D Em
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
C
Cause everything that you thought I would be
G D C D
Has fallen apart right in front of you

(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)


Em G C D
Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)


Em G D
And every second I waste is more than I can take

Em C G
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
D Em
I've become so tired so much more aware
C G
I've becoming this all I want to do
D Em
Is be more like me and be less like you

D
And I know
Em G Em D C
I may end up failing too
D
But I know
B (hold)
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

Em C G
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
D Em
I've become so tired so much more aware
C G
I've becoming this all I want to do
D Em
Is be more like me and be less like you

C G
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
D
(Tired of being what you want me to be)

Em C G
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
D
(Tired of being what you want me to be)

Ending: Em C G D
