about

One of my first songs I wrote that I still play. Sometimes. I kind of hate it now, though.

lyrics

Numb by White Trash Folk
Lyrics and Music © Rick Shelton

I'm all out of motivation
My drive has taken off it’s gone and it's left me here
I'm too knocked out for navigation
So I sit back and I let the auto-pilot steer

So what's the worst thing that could happen?
Most likely it's nothing at all
I've fallen too far for to climb back up
And I've climbed far too high for to fall

(Riff, repeat verse progression)

It seems I'm out of desperation
My inherent will is gone and it won't come back
I'm too choked up for conversation
My tongue is twisted and my lips are brittle cracks


So what's the worst thing that could happen?
Most likely it's something so small
I've fallen too far for to climb back up
And I've climbed far too high for to fall

*This is where I start playing the riff as power chords
(Riff, repeat verse progression)

I'm too far gone for salutations
I've lost my hello's and goodbye's in a single wave
I'm filled with passive aggravations
Someone has wrecked all of my back roads that should not be paved


But what's the worst thing that could happen?
When you quit the game you can't drop the ball
I've fallen too far for to climb back up
And I've climbed far too high for to fall
