Novocaine by This Glass Embrace Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If it's not work then it's school
Or something else in between
Whatever it takes just to keep me from thinking
And I haven't been sleeping
Which is really a shame
Because it seems as good a way as anything

[Pre-Chorus 1]
To forget myself for once
To find escape, however brief
Some kind of makeshift novocaine
To dull these feelings I can't shake

[Chorus]
So tonight, I drink to forget
I'll raise this glass to everything we never were
And if I can get just a single moment
Where I can think of you without my hands shaking
Then that will be enough for me
[Verse 2]
There've been a whole lot of words
Exchanged between you and I
And I can't help but wonder just how many were lies
And how many you meant
When you opened your mouth
But now looking back they have filled you with doubt

[Pre-Chorus 2]
All the same, they haunt my steps
Exhaled in every lonely breath
The promises you couldn't keep
Aren't all that's keeping you from me

[Chorus]
So tonight, I drink to forget
I'll raise this glass to everything we never were
And if I can get just a single moment
Where I can think of you without my hands shaking
Then that will be enough for me

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
So tonight, I drink to forget
I'll raise this glass to everything we never were
And if I can get just a single moment
Where I can think of you without my hands shaking
Then that will be enough for me
