Novocain

This is a new home
That I built in a safer place
Cuz' where I've been
And all I've been through
Had me tearing at my bones
I had traded emotion
For a vacuum of quiet space
And I tied down
The well thought out
Feelings before they left my room
To find a life
I just needed to drive out
My heart was barely safe
I could finally dry out
In the warmth that we create

You were Novocain
I was on the brink of the worst one
You numbed my mouth while the words resist
Temporarily but still come out

I try to keep my composure
But its pulling across my chest
It presses down
Against my mouth
And leaves me to find my own release
And I slowly unravel
(They dig through me)
And I slowly unravel
(They take their time)
And I slowly unravel
I push back down and I bite my tongue again
Yea

You were Novocain
I was on the brink of the worst one
You numbed my mouth while the words resist
Temporarily but still come out

The rush hit my brain
I was still reeling from the first one
You numbed my mouth while the words resist
Temporarily...

She said "Don't look, it takes some time"
"A little honesty could change my mind"
But it was never that bad
We took that time
I'm finally waking up
And I slowly unravel
