[Verse 1] 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 going to find out just how boring I am And have a good time [Pre-Chorus] Cause ever since I 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 1] Numb is the new deep Done with the old me And talk is the same cheap it's been [Verse 2] 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 they remind you of just how feeble we are? Well it used to, I guess [Pre-Chorus] Cause ever since I 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 1] Numb is the new deep Done with the old me And talk is the same cheap it's been [Verse 3] 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 2] Numb is the new deep Done with the old me I'm over the an*lyzing tonight [Outro] Stop trying to figure it out (you try to figure, you try to figure it out) Deep will only bring you down You know, I used to be the back Porch poet with my book of rhymes Always open knowing all the time I'm probably Never going to find the perfect rhyme For heavier things
