I'm so alive, I'm so enlightened
I can barely survive a night in my mind
So I've got a plan I'm gonna find out
Just how boring I am and have a good time

PRE-CHORUS
Cause ever since I've tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine, I've been cool
With my new golden rule

CHORUS
Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

Is there a God? Why is he waiting?
Don't you think of it odd when he knows my address
And look at the stars don't it remind you
Just how feeble we are? Well it used to, I guess

PRE-CHORUS
Cause ever since I've tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine, I've been cool
With my new golden rule

CHORUS
Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

I'm a new man, I wear a new cologne
And you wouldn't know me if your eyes were closed
I know what you'll say, "This won't last longer
than the rest of the day." But you're wrong this time
You're wrong

CHORUS
Numb is the new deep
Done with the one me
I'm over the analyzing tonight

Stop trying to figure it out
(You try figuring it out, you try figuring it out)
Deep will only bring you down
You know I used to be the back porch poet
With a book of rhymes always
Open, knowing all the time, I'm probably
Never gonna find the perfect rhyme
For "heavier things"
