A song about anxiety and the desire for it to disappear in the flick of a switch, which of course would be an absolute miracle.

It's dark and brooding, and very low in my register during the verses, but I like that. I also very much like some of the rhymes I've come up with. Annoyed that I didn't realise sooner I've used both "devoid" and "void", so something is going to get rewritten! Even still, perhaps a song with some of my better lyricism, if I may say so myself.

Make me calm through my body Make me be devoid of worry Make me stay still and settled At an ordinary level

Make me sleep like a baby Give me dreams that don’t awake me Help me release my tension And experience liberation

Take my pain Make it freeze And anaesthetise me please Deaden all of my senses So that I need no defences Make me numb

Make me void like I’m empty Make me dead to resurrect me Help me breathe through the future Clear away all the pollutant

Tell me tales of a version Where existence isn’t hurting Feed my brain a potential So it feels like an eventual

Take my pain Make it freeze And anaesthetise me please Deaden all of my senses So that I need no defences Make me numb

Make me walk with no stagger Make me talk without a stammer Make my heart beat a rhythm That is not at all uneven

Make my shakes non-existent Make my tears dry in an instant Be the cure for my ailments Be the miracle I’m desperate for

Take my pain Make it freeze And anaesthetise me please Deaden all of my senses So that I need no defences Make me numb

Make me numb
