Novocain (Messersmith Jeremy)

I used to be so young But now I'm oh so beaten down My friends are nowhere to be found I find myself alone I could have been someone But now my name is a just a ghost My reputation is a joke My eyes won't cry So could you pass me the needle? I want a brand new scar I need a shot of Novocain To numb my heart Could you pass me the bottle? Make it something hard Cause there ain't enough Novocain to numb my broken heart I tried to get ahead But life has always been unjust It's grinding dreams into the dust and I've had my fill Please could you spare a dime I need to wet my aching throat So I can say goodbye to hope It's sure been swell
