[Intro: Haunting female vocals, ghostly reverb] Fading—further—out of time... Lost my—feeling—crossed the line... Oooooh... numb me out... [Verse 1: Male rap, fast, aggressive] Said I’d be better when I put that down, Said I’d see clearer when I turned shit ‘round. Now I see every fucked-up thing, Now I feel every goddamn sting. War on the screen, price at the pump, News got bodies stacked in the dump. Billionaires laugh, tell us be strong, Hand us a check that don’t last too long. I been clean, but I feel that itch, Brain still fiend for a quick-ass fix. World so raw, need a buffer between, Need a numb, need a hit, need a goddamn dream. [Pre-Chorus: Female vocals, eerie harmonies] Drowning slow in novocaine dreams... Feel the fire, but it don’t burn me... Can’t wake up, don’t pull me free... I need this numb to breathe... [Chorus: Female vocals, stretched-out syllables, ghostly layering] Gimme a hit of that nova—caine, Let it run—through my veins. World too loud, I can’t—complain, So I fade—so I fade—away... (Ahhh... ooooh... fade away...) [Verse 2: Male rap, sharp, venomous] Fuck bein’ sober if this life don’t quit, Every damn day’s just doom and shit. Politicians lie, markets crash, Bullets fly while they stack that cash. Tried to stay clean, tried to stay whole, But the past still talk in a voice I know. Whispers at night, hands in the dark, Saying “just one time, let’s numb that heart.” I know that trick, I know that scam, I know that game and how it ends bad. But fuck it, man, what’s one more ride? What’s one more drip just to slow my mind? [Bridge: Female vocals, breathy and distant] Too much weight, I can't hold on, Too much noise, I’m way too gone... Silver tongue, tell me sweet sweet lies, Say I’ll be fine, say I'll be fine... [Chorus: Female vocals, layered harmonies, fading echoes] Gimme a hit of that nova—caine, Let it run—through my veins. World too loud, I can’t—complain, So I fade—so I fade—away... (Ahhh... ooooh... fade away...) [Verse 3: Male rap, slower, exhausted but still sharp] Fuck a twelve-step, fuck a new plan, Tell me what to do when the world's this damned. Tell me how to cope when the sky stay red, When the air so thick with the ghosts of the dead. Tried deep breaths, tried long walks, Tried therapy, tried to detox. But I don’t need God, I don’t need peace, I need that numb, I need release. So fuck what they said, fuck what they preach, Fuck every lesson they tried to teach. I don’t need hope, I don’t need light, Just let me drift through one more night. [Outro: Female vocals, soft, melancholic] Oooooh... fading... (fading...) Oooooh... drifting... (drifting...) Oooooh... nowhere... Just let me be.
