Alanis Morissette numb live at the montreux jazz festival montreuxswitzerland 2012

Select language to translate this lyric

I feel smothered and encumbered and defeated and drawn
Disappointed, overextended and frustrated and shaken
This over-giving, over-loving
This care-taking goes on
With no chance of intermission,
I'll be checked out, I'll be gone
How to remove myself from sensation?
Here comes a feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
I feel anxious, I am nervous, I am bored
I'm overwhelmed; rather be out of my gourd
How to remove myself from sensation?
Here comes a feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling;
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
I am lonely, I feel hungry and unloved
I feel angry, I am livid, need a hug
Here comes a feeling
I run from the feeling and reach for the drug
Can't sit with this feeling
I'd rather be flying and comfortably numb
