“I can breathe you in but i feel nothing…”
Imagine you’ve cracked your heart open…you’ve let someone in…and suddenly, through a “tower” moment, it ends. You go to hug this person goodbye, and you smell their familiar clothes, a scent you used to love…and yet…you feel…numb. So quickly.
You realize the truth of the relationship…that you have chosen someone “safe” and a “good” person…but in fact, that deeper connection wasn’t there the whole time. In choosing the safe option you protected yourself…albeit too much. This moment is what inspired my song “Numb”.
