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
