Novocaine
There were simpler times
Like just last year
When walking down a path
I could have run into you there
There are no simple words
To explain
Why my stomach turns when someone says your name
I'm worried that I'll never sleep
It's just that lately
I have hated all my dreams
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
I met you outside had to bum a cigarette
To you a stranger was just a friend you'd never met
Do you remember after just a couple rounds
Over a noisy bar we shouted lyrics through the crowd
And I could've kept singing through the night
Back then we stayed past closing time and I wasn't sleep deprived
But now I'm worried that I'll never sleep
It's just that lately I have hated all my dreams
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
But all those simple things kept getting a bit more complicated
And I try my best at night but I'm usually intoxicated
There's no denying that my seams are wearing thin
I keep tying knots with threads from all the love you left
Well don't worry that I never sleep
I promise I'm still working on me
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your laugh today
Well I swear I swear
I swear to see your face today
Well I swear I swear
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
Like just last year
When walking down a path
I could have run into you there
There are no simple words
To explain
Why my stomach turns when someone says your name
I'm worried that I'll never sleep
It's just that lately
I have hated all my dreams
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
I met you outside had to bum a cigarette
To you a stranger was just a friend you'd never met
Do you remember after just a couple rounds
Over a noisy bar we shouted lyrics through the crowd
And I could've kept singing through the night
Back then we stayed past closing time and I wasn't sleep deprived
But now I'm worried that I'll never sleep
It's just that lately I have hated all my dreams
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
But all those simple things kept getting a bit more complicated
And I try my best at night but I'm usually intoxicated
There's no denying that my seams are wearing thin
I keep tying knots with threads from all the love you left
Well don't worry that I never sleep
I promise I'm still working on me
And every night I try to numb the pain
I swear to hear your laugh today
Well I swear I swear
I swear to see your face today
Well I swear I swear
I swear to hear your voice today
Would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
It would feel like Novocaine
