Song: We Won’t Numb the Pain / Fire
Artist: Tenth Avenue North
Album: Cathedrals
==================================================================================================
Intro:
C Am Em G
Verse 1:
Em (N.C.)
We’re taking paths of least resistance
And never feel our soul’s persistence
Turn on the radio, we don’t want to know
Keep on running in cruise control
Em (N.C.)
We were never meant to live like this
So much is happening too easy to miss, yeah
Cheap thrills, social media pills
Use sex like a drug and we can’t keep still
Prechorus 1:
Cmaj7
Distracted, distracted
Bm7
Keep ourselves so districted
Am7
But we want more
Chorus:
C
We won’t numb the pain
Am
Hands reaching to the sky
Em
Hearts ready for the fire
Emadd2 G
Eyes open till we die
G/B C
We won’t numb the pain
Am
Slow down inside the riot
Em
Stand still against the tide
Emadd2 G
Keep fighting for the silence
G/B (Em)
We won’t numb the pain
Verse 2:
Em
Talk influence and being strategic
But all I’m feeling is narcissistic
Use recognition for the adrenaline
Don't stop long enough to hear the disconnection
Em
We were never meant to move like this
Stand up for anything and be dismissed
Oh, we don’t want it real, we keep it trivial
Objectified sex keeps us playing the field
Chorus
Bridge:
(Em)
We want the cure, not a medication
C Am
We’re gonna deal with it now
Em
We want the cure, not a medication
C (Am) N.C.
We’re gonna deal with it now
Chorus
Outro:
(Em)
Gonna feel my
(C)
Gonna feel my
(Em) N.C.
Gonna feel my heart now
