Novocain
Fit For Rivals Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I first came into this world
I was born without a heart
In the cold, in the dark
Don't think there's a right solution
People like me are the pollution.
Mix the dirty with the clean
Lost my way in the between
Maybe I'm a little too obsessive
I know you think I'm a maniac-depressive
No, there's nothing I don't regret
So listen up close so you don't forget.
I think Novocaine runs through my veins
I don't know how to love or how to feel
When the sun turns black and we all decay
I will feel nothing, wouldn't change anything
So fill me up on your prescription
Can't hear me, you never listen
Tried so hard to play the part
In disguise from the start
There's no logic in your lesson
Thoughts are skewed through my perception
Blurred the line a million times
And now I made it out alive
Maybe I'm little too obsessive
I know you think I'm a maniac-depressive
No, there's nothing I don't regret
So listen up close so you don't forget.
I think Novocaine runs through my veins
I don't know how to love or how to feel
When the sun turns black and we all decay
I will feel nothing, wouldn't change anything
Woah, change anything
Woah, wouldn't change anything
Wouldn't change anything
I think Novocaine runs through my veins
I don't know how to love or how to feel
I think Novocaine runs through my veins
I don't know how to love or how to feel
When the sun turns black and we all decay
I will feel nothing, wouldn't change anything
The song "Novocain" by Fit For Rivals is a hauntingly emotional exploration of the singer's inner pain and emotional numbness. The lyrics describe a feeling of detachment from the world and from personal relationships that is so extreme, it is compared to being an actual physical condition. The opening lines are particularly striking, as the singer reveals that she was "born without a heart" and is thus unable to experience love or true emotional connection with others.
Throughout the rest of the song, the singer reflects on the sense of isolation and detachment that she feels, expressing a deep sense of regret and even self-loathing for her inability to connect with others on a meaningful level. She describes herself as "a little too obsessive" and suggests that others view her as a "maniac-depressive," highlighting the stigma and misunderstanding that often accompanies mental health struggles. Finally, the singer seems to resign herself to her fate, accepting that she will "feel nothing" even as the world around her decays and falls apart.
Overall, "Novocain" is an incredibly powerful and deeply affecting song that speaks to the experience of struggling with mental health issues and the sense of separation and disconnection that can result from this. The raw honesty and vulnerability of the lyrics make it a standout track and a must-listen for fans of emotional, introspective music.
