Numb

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

 I've become so numb, I can't feel you there

Become so tired, so much more aware

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 lose control?

'Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you.

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you.

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take.

 I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,

Become so tired, so much more aware

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 disappointed in you.

 I've become so numb, I can't feel you there,

Become so tired, so much more aware.

I'm becoming this, all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you.

 I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there.

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

Alexis sat on the floor next to Ryan who was laying on her stomach across a bean bag chair to keep her ribs from hurting. All, or most, of the artists were gathered in Ryan's living room working on artwork or they were in the kitchen attacking the pizza and snacks provided. Trenton was in the kitchen with most of the guys, listening to their converstaions as he was being held by his father. Raven and her band worked on lyrics for another song on the couch between drinks of beer or munching on snacks. Alexis on her jewlery. Xander was wondering around with a fursuit's head, he claimed he was testing it out for his client, while he teased Justin. Justin had grabbed the face and kissed it earlier. Felix was painting on a small canvas next to Riley. 

Eriko held her stomach with one hand while she held Jessie's with the other. Jessie's bright red lips kissed her girlfriend's temple as they watched Gil and Derrik play Super Mario on Ryan's Nintendo NES system as they awaited their turn. Allen, Helix, Aiden, Conner were laughing in the kitchen, probably drunk Ryan decided. Everyone was busy or having fun. It was a good thing. Tomorrow was the last day everyone would be around except the locals, Ryan, Alexis, Xander, Raven, who would stay and work on Monday. They had an artshow tomorrow night for which they had tshirts. Ryan had everything set nearly.
