Airborne Toxic Event, The - Numb Lyrics

I discovered this band a week ago and now im addicted to them.

Real guitars real players real songwriting...real music

Una perroneria de rola

Am amazing performance thank you

This dude looks like Derek Zoolander

Very under rated band, simply awesome 👏

Anna so hot...

why is everyone so uniquely attractive in this band?

Psychedelic Furs reincarnated,and that's a very good thing!!

tap tap made it happen years ago and i still love it

Just want to be numb. And hey look at the Asian playing great guitar. Love this group so much.

You know, I get upset whenever someone refers to USA-born citizens as "the Asian", "the Latino". I have never heard anyone referring to a white kid born here as "the German", "the Swedish" and so on. Why is that?

I just wanna be numb. What perfect words for how I feel everyday when I see what is happening.

probably should be the head song at my funeral

STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL

This song will always remind me of someone i fell in love with. He introduced me to this beautiful song and now it fucking hurts to hear this. Gods, i wish i could go back in the past... miss you Quinn.

I'm a 47 year old wife and mother who lives on an island, I saw them live years ago and they were amazing, I don't think it matters what age etc you are if music like this gives you chills and helps you then keep listening, you've got great taste

So energetic!!!

Anybody listening in 2018?

Thumbs up!

2017 the forth day of December and I'm only realising numb is their song...cracking stuff. Only makes me love and have more respect for their music. .......how do the likes of toxic go unknown by ""us"" so called music lovers...speaking about myself !!

That lead is so passionate and in your face, it's powerful. And the lead guitarist is beautifully ageless. God, I'm in heaven!

sucked my first african american penis to this song

Can you just make music for me the rest of my life?! I think I love it all and alway will!

0:49 watch him forget his own lyrics and look to the cue card! TRUST ARTIST!

Still here in 2017 ✌
I love you Anna

God do I miss the 90s the music the drugs the women bonfire parties going down the the river with a keg in your inner tube with your buddies just having a good time not a care in the world life was so much simpler then you work hard on the throughout the week and then Friday and Saturday you are just rocking Sunday recovering

letra en español. no sean malos u.u

Great tune you manage to adict me to your music....and you hava a new fan from Portugal

I really like this band and they've got some good songs, but who the fuck broke this guys heart and what kind of an evil bitch is she? I sympathize with his pain.

He's happily married now with a child. Those dark days are behind him.

Fuckin' killer of a song and should have been huge,if it had been done by The Killers it would have (love them too),but been a fan of this band since 2008 and love their music.

With you on that. Reminds me of 90's with a band like pulp.

Very true,god should have picked up on that as I only was playing a bit of Pulp,Denim,Rialto about a week ago too,yep very britpop,well spotted.

I remember hearing these guys in the late 90's .. thinking they were gonna blow up anytime soon .. shit still waiting and can't understand y

Killer fucking band-listen to alternative, and just put the name to the tunes. Am huge fan!

Lyrics
I've been in a daze
It seems like days that I've been waiting
For this dream to pass
It goes so fast
It seems nothing lasts
I think I've lost something

Stuck here with these people
While you wake I crush our bodies in one space
I feel your heart blood from my tongue
I wonder where you've gone

And the ever turning, spinning wheel of people, places lies I feel
The restless beat of the sleepless night to come
I just want to be numb
Just want to be numb

Hopeless these three years like smoking years
I go from place to place
Just endlessly and half asleep
Like I'm falling alone at some endless breach

I don't know where I am
I don't know what I've done
I just go over it again and again and again
I can't sleep at night
I cant breathe
But If I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind

And the ever present pit I feel
I'm turning on some spinning wheel
Of faces and the scenes I see
And none of it seems real to me
Just the bleary haze of the morning still to come

I just want to be numb
Just want to be numb
I just want to be numb
I just want to be numb
I just want to be numb

Love this song. The Airborne Toxic Event is truly underrated.

I learned about ATE with their first cd and have loved them ever since!!!!!!!

*cries for unknown reason

I'm just now finding out about this band! whyyyyy!?!?!? They are so great!

T Rains in life we miss out on so much, yet I am still so terribly sorry you had missed out on this for so many years...

Tonyia Rains better late than never!

The vocalist is a cross between Mick Blue and Robbie Williams

Best band name after farting

It's from a book.

Now this a band, full of true musicians.

i love this band i have every one of there cds and have see them live incredible band

I love this song, but the music video seems like it was done by a first year film student.

Yeah, this song is too good for this video, I think this album is fantastic.

Numb and dumb is how I wanna spend a potential President Trump administration. Lord, help US

does it matter how famous you are if you have a small dedicated fan base

Remember playing this song on Tap Tap Revenge..... Good times

These guys don't get enough credit, because most of the person in the world have a bad taste in music. Amazing song as all the other song.

cool song cool video.

This guy can play Kevin Spacey in biopick

These guys dont get enough credit. Amazing band and great songs. Hard to find these days. Everyone knows who Selena Gomez is dating but an awesome band like this doesnt get recognized??

+Donatas Stirbys True, but such a wonderfully talented band like this deserves to be a lot bigger than they are right now

True story, but the depth keeps us alive

just reminds me classic phycadelic furs,great music,great voice

Chris Mulligan

Have to agree with you Chris - there used to be a time when music was the driving force and soundtrack to our lives. Now people seem to only want to work out how to look like their favourite celebrity - I miss the time when musicians playing instruments in bands were revered and not overlooked.

Why is this band not more famous?

+bossdrive525 U know you did not just use SJW terms like White Privelege. oh my gosh, I can't I went there.

+Tony Daniels Don't even on this page.

@bossdrive525 what the fuck are you ranting about?

unfortunately the band peaked in like 2011 ...i want to say 2007 was when Sometime around midnight came and then it wasn't till All At Once which was like 2011 that they had a super strong demand for tours and such...

I think its just age mixed with them not wanting a Major label...

Dane Luke Wagner, an idiotic assessment

Been a fan for 7 years, never, ever disappoint. This song is everything.

I've been following this band since 2010 and it's so crazy to see how the meaning of songs change as we grow. This song back when it came out was just another awesome song and now it means so much more. It's cool how music seems to grow and change with the way we do

I agree!! I've been listening to them since about 2008 and the meaning behind their music has changed for me since then. I also think that the band and the meanings behind the songs has changed a lot since then as well. It kinda feels like they grow as we grow and so we can both change together!

diana rodriguez So true, Diana!

Isnt it so beautiful? Feeling songs evolve for you as the days weeks months years go by? It's like magic and I love thinking about it as I discover new feelings and emotions.

I just discovered this band earlier this year. I was shocked when I googled them and they've been around sine 2008 if I remember correctly. You all have to be familiar with the classic song by Don McClean...American Pie! There's a line in that song saying "...the day the music died". It's not just a metaphor for me or anyone that has lost a very precious loved one that rocks you to your core. It causes the most agonizing pain that one can EVER feel. Especially if it is a parent who lost their only child or one of their children. God blessed my exhuband and I immensely entrusting 4 healthy beautiful babes into our care. The oldest and only son and 3 daughters followed having all 4 of them by the time our son had turned 6. Busy and blissfully happy was how I described my existence. As time passed and my children grew into young adults, they remained very close and tightly bonded. my son took the role of protector of his sisters at a young age and was there for them at anytime...just as the girls were there for their brother. I was proud of this trait that we instilled. This small talk is preparing me to share in the most devastating and excruciatingly painful event that took place in our lives on Xmas eve 2010 when my youngsters daughter had a fatal car accident. She was 3 days shy of her 20th bday. On that morning as Mother Mary was starting her labor for our Savior Jesus Christ, God and the Angels immediately surrounded my baby as the Hands of God lifted her SOUL up into heaven before the paramedics could even arrive on scene just 3 minutes away. Thanks be to God that she didn't suffer long, if any. That Christmas Eve the "music died" for the longest time and I wasn't even capable to realize it was gone. Music could be blasting from all around but I could not hear it. My other children at that time were 21, 23 and 25. Our lives kinda scattered as we each tried to continue functiong with jobs and school and found more comfort in retreating than trying to act normally in public. what is normal?? My marriage was suffering long before this tragedy and I found it necessary to file for divorce after a 27 year relationship or I knew I would NOT SURVIVE MY GREATEST LOSS with my ex who only had mean, degrading, negatve things to say to me and had told me a week after our daughter's passing that she hated me. I was prepared to go to a domestic violence shelter for emotionally and sometimes physically abused women. When I filed for divorce my ex completely cut me off financially removing my name as co signer on every account and took a part off my van so it wouldn't run. He left our family home of 25 years and moved in with a woman so the shelter became unnecessary. But, in addition to being in agonizing grief, I had to figure out how to purchased food, how to get the food home, how to pay for electricity & water etc. I had been independent all my life never thinking of asking for help at times we struggle. I had sustained a serious work injury that left me in chronic pain after my neck and back surgery and had never worked another day after Aug. 2001 when I got seriously injuries. I knew I was on God's good graces and tried to worry minimally about my survival which came earlier because I wanted to be with my daughter. God provided amazingly with too many stories to explain since I've already rambled on an on but I will say that out of the blue my ongoing workmen comp case was nearing trial ALL OF THE SUDDEN, and I was able to take and advance until things were finalized. I have to add that US Airways is one of the most reputable companies out there and I am forever grateful for all their TLC and ALWAYS having the highest of standards possible.

+Katherine Leonard same here I'd never heard of them and happened across one of their songs a couple of days back. they are fantastic

The director of this video was spot on

Amazing, 4 years ago; where does time go...thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2015!

The most visceral song for anyone who's been broken up with...

"October 17th...ten blocks from my house...I'll make a point of being there." - A New Fan

Amazing young band !

love this :)

Hey Cornel Maris...I'm a 42 year old gal and get depressed. I found them too. don't be depressed. You have love! and Airborne Toxic Event!

Great song! Reminds me of the 80's in parts of the song.

+Isaac Thompson Yes...it is the 80's again...going to go out looking for girls with big hair now!
