Too Numb To Cry
Zakk Wylde · Book of Shadows [1996]
Search for some happiness ain't anytime soon
Turmoil has turned you inside
Sift through your pages of miracles you wish to find
Chorus
When you're too numb to cry
& you're just left wondering why
When you're too numb to cry
& you're just left wondering why
To change in the blink of an eye
If you could you surely would wave yourself good-bye
I try & I try & I try
Get a hold on your suffering
Peace in which you don't wish to buy
