Intro

    
    

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

N.C. D5
Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

Instrumental

    
    

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

N.C. D5
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

N.C. D5
Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
I'm over the analyzing 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~

Outro

    
D5 A C G/B (Fade out)
