Novocaine

Locking this out, faking this smile

'Cause nobody goes dark like me

Keep it all in, hold it together

'Cause nobody feels just quite this tired

So tired of these wires that bind me

Come find me alone



You know it's all gone if you're honest

We're taking all we can till it's over

'Cause I won't let go

I'm dreaming of the time when you found me

Just staring at the sun

As your smile was going through me like novocaine



Holding on tight, praying for sunlight

I know you won't be here for long

There's no one here now

It's empty and silent, we tried it all before

But we lost it, we lost it

It cost me my first glimpse of life lived in here



You know it's all gone if you're honest

We're taking all we can till it's over

'Cause I won't let go

I'm dreaming of the time when you found me

Just staring at the sun

As your smile was going through me like novocaine



You know it's all gone if you're honest

We're taking all we can till it's over

'Cause I won't let go

I'm dreaming of the time when you found me

Just staring at the sun

As your smile was going through me like fire

Through me like hope

You're going through me like novocaine
