Novocaine

Do you remember the way You used to tell me it's okay? 'Cause I can't remember those days Those days Overthinking the past, where'd it slip away? It's safe to say that the new me's here to stay Can I catch the way the sickness came? Stole my pain, novocaine, yeah I succumb, it keeps me numb It's not alright, it's not alright It's not okay Trying to feel like I'm alive How many times have I survived But I won't change? Trying to feel like I'm alive But you know, yeah, I know I know you couldn't change me anyway And I can't find the words to say I'm a helpless mess, how can I stress? A symptom slips right through my veins Catch the way the sickness came Stole my pain, novocaine, yeah I succumb, it keeps me numb I'm not okay Trying to feel like I'm alive How many times have I survived But I won't change? Trying to feel like I'm alive But you know, yeah, I know I know you couldn't change me anyway If you still want to sing Fill in the blanks we need You can do it through me while you're gone In time the price of peace will cost us everything But all the love you leave carries on So, you can sing while you're away Tell me the words you want to say Give them to me and I'll relay But know it just won't be the same Trying to feel like I'm alive How many times have I survived But I won't change? Trying to feel like I'm alive But you know, yeah, I know I know you couldn't change me anyway (do you remember the way) But you know, yeah, I know (you used to tell me it's okay?) I know you couldn't change me anyway (I can't remember those days) (Those days) It's okay
