John Mayer -- New Deep

I'm so alive
I'm so enlightened
I can barely survive
A night in my mind
I've got a plan
I'm gonna find out just how boring I am
And have a good time

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine
I've been cool
With my new golden rule

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

Is there a God?
Why is he waiting?
Don't you think of it odd
When he knows my address?
And look at the stars
Don't it remind you just how feeble we are?
Well it used to, I guess

Cause ever since I tried
Trying not to find
Every little meaning in my life
It's been fine
I've been cool
With my new golden rule

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
And talk is the same cheap it's been

I'm a new man
I wear a new cologne and
You wouldn't know me if your eyes were closed
I know what you'll say
'This won't last longer than the rest of the day'
But you're wrong this time

Numb is the new deep
Done with the old me
I'm over the analyzing
Tonight

Stop trying to figure it out
Deep will only bring you down
You know, I used to be the back porch poet with a book of rhymes
Always open knowing all the time I'm probably
Never gonna find the perfect rhyme
For 'heavier things'

在John Mayer身上我们可以发现巨星的特质：技巧成熟，令人印象深刻的吉他弹奏产生平易近人的大众摇滚音乐，非常上镜头，魅力横扫南方地区。John Mayer对歌曲创作的热情非常明显强烈，他说：“背着吉他站在麦克风前，脑海中自然而然就会浮现出旋律，一下子就会有几千几百首歌曲跑出来，我爱这种感觉!生命里最棒的一刻，就是终于完成一首歌的那个夜晚。”

John Mayer是康乃狄克州人。从小听电台的流行乐长大。十三岁的时候邻居送给他一盘Stevie Ray Vaughan)的录音带，这是他第一次接触蓝调音乐。自此John Mayer开始学习吉他。不过两年，他开始登台演出，并且一鸣惊人。但是他很快就了解到，这不是他真正想要的。
