Leia a letra da canção a seguir e responda à questão.
Numb
Linkin Park
I’m tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don’t know what you’re expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
I’ve become so tired
So much more aware
I’m becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you
Can’t you see that you’re smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
’Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
And I know
I may end up failing, too
But I know you were just like me
With someone disappointed in you
