Numb
Time has been what you want me to be,
feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me,
but under the pressure, I'm walkin in your shoes
I'm caught in the undertow,
just caught in the undertow.
Every step I take is another mistake to you.
I'm caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I become so numb, I can feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more awake.
I'm becoming this, all I want to do.
Is be more like me, and be less like you.
Can't you see that you're smothering me,
holding too tightly, afraid to loose control.
Cause everything that you thought I would be,
is falling apart, right in front of you.
I'm caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow.
Every step I'm taking is another mistake to you.
I'm caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow.
And every second I waste is more than I can take.
I become so numb, I can feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more awake.
I'm becoming this, all I want to do.
Is be more like me, and be less like you.
And I know,I may end up failing too.
But I know,you were just like me,
with someone dissapointed in you.
I become so numb, I can feel you there,
Become so tired, so much more awake.
I'm becoming this, all I want to do.
Is be more like me, and be less like you.
I become so numb, I can feel you there,
time has been what you want me to be.
I become so numb, I can feel you there,
I'm tired of be what you want me to be.
This song do tell a lot of what we teenagers wanna say yeah? To parents, teachers.. Sometimes, they just pushed us too much. All we ask for, is your understanding and support. Agree? Let us realise our dream, let us dream. Before any great things was done, it was once considered impossible. Break up the word impossible. you'll see.. I-M-POSSIBLE
It's normal for parents to have high expectations on their children, but too high isn't good. Let them enjoy their childhood, what they deserve. Every child have the right to choose, don't take that away from them.
Parents sometimes ask a lot from their children because they don't want their child to follow their footsteps or want them to follow their footsteps. But think, parents might have brought the child to earth, but that doesn't give parents right to decide their future. They are born to be what they are meant to be. Let them discover who they are. Yes, the child might obey what the parents command, but are they happy about it? Listen to this song, maybe parents would know.
Give child the right to think, don't control them. Guide them, show them your support, show them that you believe in them-- that's more than enough! Isn't very hard yeah...
This songs somehow applys to me as well, my parents gave me pressure too... But not of high expectations, they just want me to be normal, to be like them.. But I don't want to. I know I can achieve, don't be selfish and expect me to be just like you. Don't have to make up for what you have done to me in the past, it's all history. All I ask, believe in me, give me your support, the way ahead of me, I know God will guide me and lead me. You will be proud of your daughter, you will understand one day.
