Mae Novocaine lyrics

Why does every street here look the same?
Yet there's so many here, see their faces?
They're glad they came, a city sucking all the life in me
So, I'll be using you to get what I need

It's not so typical, so hypocritical for me to act this way
But Novocaine sets in and I pretend the real is fake
See the match and strike up this band to play
The music screams at me but I don't hear a single thing

Oh, Novocaine, just get it out of me
It's getting hard to breathe in here
I'm going insane, so in the state I'm in
I give into almost anything

I'm not the monster that you claim I am
If I could set some light in here
Then I could make you understand
It's not this atmosphere that makes you become
What you hate the most
'Cause being dead is feeling numb

Oh, Novocaine, just get it out of me
It's getting hard to breathe in here
I'm going insane, so in the state I'm in
I give into almost anything

Novocaine, this is the way I feel
It's just another vicious wheel

Spinnin', spinnin' spinnin' in anxiety
The weight of it can crush you and steal your dignity

There's light here at this tunnel's end
All I can do is recommend, don't give it away
Do you feel something? Well, let the light in

I'll keep on searching here 'cause I think I could
Just get me off the streets of hollow Hollywood

All systems in place
All systems in place
All systems in place
All systems in place
All systems in place
All systems in place
All systems in place

All systems systems
Sensation, separation, isolation
This foundation worn by countless obligations
Lies and desperation

All systems systems
Sensation, separation, isolation
This foundation worn by countless obligations
Lies and desperation

All systems systems
Sensation, separation, isolation
This foundation worn by countless obligations
Lies and desperation
