Numb

A candle flickers through the night 

An eagle makes it\'s debut flight 

Still fresh the taste of her last bite

Her numbness dulls her pain 

 

Stood on the edge afraid to leap

Dry ducts betray the urge to weep

The promises they couldn\'t keep 

Her numbness dulls her pain 

 

When cupid sent his arrow true 

It pierced her heart when sailing through 

She smiled through tears as he withdrew 

Her numbness dulls her pain 

 

The cherub failed the gods just laughed 

She braces for the arctic draught 

She navigates the seas by raft

Her numbness dulls her pain 

 

His voice resounded loud and clear 

A happy life is drawing near

She heard the words she longed to hear

His love it dulled her pain
