Live & Unreleased: Numbskull

The music of Numbskull was written and arranged by Laci. He brought the idea to a razordoll rehearsal back when he was still playing bass for us. The song was planned to be released on In Limbo.

The lyrics deal with the twisted thoughts of a psychopath, trying to show a different face to the world and struggling to keep his true self hidden. Inspired by the manic Good Riddance by The Jesus Lizard.

Ákos at a razordoll show in 2013.

This version was recorded in rehearsal in 2014.

Numbskull (unreleased)

(This skin feels so wrong)

Here in the darkness I have crawled

Here in the darkness I have roamed

I am alone with my angry mind

And I shall forever be silent

Paint the clown a sad face

Watch him die happy (with lament in his eyes)

Paint the clown a sad face

Feed on his struggle (watch him sell his soul)

I grasp for air still I crack a smile

Swallow words thrown up by my mind

I am but a prisoner of my thoughts

And I shall forever be silent

Paint the clown a sad face

Watch him die happy (with lament in his eyes)

Paint the clown a sad face

Feed on his struggle (watch him sell his soul)

(This skin feels so wrong)

You're dead to me
