The Desolate Journey of Emotional Numbness

Citizen Soldier's song "Numb To Everything" delves deep into the emotional turmoil of feeling disconnected and numb. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone grappling with their own sense of disappointment and self-loathing. The protagonist sees the disappointment in their loved one's eyes, reflecting on the wasted time and unfulfilled promises. This sense of failure and the cyclical nature of letting their partner down is a central theme, highlighting the struggle to change and the pain of remaining stagnant.

The chorus emphasizes the protagonist's numbness, feeling distant and unreachable despite being physically close to their partner. This emotional detachment is a source of immense frustration and self-hatred, as they question how they became so numb. The repetition of the word "numb" underscores the depth of their emotional paralysis, making it clear that this is not a fleeting feeling but a pervasive state of being. The lyrics also touch on the protagonist's internal battles, including their messy mind, past traumas, and scars that have left them with an empty heart.

The song also explores the impact of this numbness on their relationship. Despite their partner's unwavering love and support, the protagonist feels alone and unable to reciprocate those feelings. The line "You loved me till it hurt, it wore you to the bone" poignantly captures the toll this emotional numbness has taken on their partner. The song ends with a desperate plea for change, as the protagonist expresses a desire to break free from this numbness and reconnect with their emotions and their partner. Citizen Soldier's raw and honest lyrics, combined with their powerful musical style, create a compelling narrative of emotional struggle and the longing for redemption.
