Everything Went Numb Lyrics - Singles - Streetlight Manifesto

And the story goes like this: 

Everything went numb for the money and the guns 

And everytime he'd think it out: "There's nothing to worry about 

Get in the van, don't deviate from the plan 

If everything goes smooth then you'll walk away a rich man" 

So it begins, everybody walks in

Ski mask (Check) 

Sawed off (Check) 

Guilty conscience, fear of death (Check, check, check) 

Everything went numb when he stumbled upon what he thought 

Was going to be another means to the end 

Silence 

Sirens 

It all went down like his nightmare the night before 

I don't want to hear 

I don't want to be near 

I do what I got to do just to keep my nose clean

The story doesn't end here 

Don't fear for our hero ain't near the end, my friend 

Let's take it back to how it all began: 

With a proposition 

And proposition starts with a capital "P" 

"Or at least for me" is what he said to himself 

But himself ain't a lot when he's got nothing left 

Of what was once a man, loved and loving 

He took that trip that turns something to nothing 

Right and wrong 

There's not a lot a difference when you're singing that poor man's song 

And that song it goes just a little like this: 

Ski mask (Check) 

Sawed off (Check) 

Guilty conscience, fear of death (Check, check, check) 

Everything went numb when he stumbled upon what he thought 

Was going to be another means to the end 

Silence 

Sirens 

It all went down like his nightmare the night before 

I don't want to hear 

I don't want to be near 

I do what I got to do just to keep my nose clean
