Can I Overcome?

Can I overcome these things I'm feeling
A coldness deep inside
The violence, the loss of friends
It's got me desensitized

Why in the world, does the world keep trying me?
I'll try
Don't wanna hear all the hurt, I don't want to see
Why can't you see?

Sometimes I feel numb, I can't feel no pain
Can I overcome things I can't explain
And I still want to try to trust again
But I just can't believe

The things I read
I just wanna close my eyes
The TV news gets me confused
So now I'm paralyzed

Why in the world, does the world keep trying me?
I'll try
Don't wanna hear all the hurt, I don't want to see
Why can't you see?

Sometimes I feel numb, I can't feel no pain
Can I overcome things I can't explain

Sometimes I feel numb, I can't feel no pain
Can I overcome things I can't explain
And I can't close my eyes
Pretending not to see what I've become

Can I overcome
Can I overcome
Can I overcome
