Novocaine
Enclose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Did you find yourself?
Did you show them what you're made of?
The walls were tired of standing
Couldn't hold you anymore

The days are grey and filled with pain
I miss you running through my veins
And as your music fades away
I long for you sweet Novocaine

I'd tried to stop the rain
And fight the voices in your head
But I couldn't take the pain
And you were so far gone

The days are grey and filled with pain
I miss you running through my veins
And as your music fades away
I long for you sweet Novocaine

As strong as you were, as tender you go
You burned your wings flying too close to the sun




(Solo)
The days are gray and filled with pain...
