This song is about a breakup.  We've changed some of the words around as of late, so please note the minor discrepancies in the lyrics.

"Novocaine"

Numb me like novocaine
Take what you will, then zip up and drive
Its only to kill the pain
A knife in the back, as you kiss me goodbye

She don't want it
She don't need it
She don't need you
Is this a read thru?

Comatose on the train
You've made it so easy for me to get on
You know that she's on my brain
Should have gave her the credit for writing this song

She don't want it
She don't need it
She don't need you
Is this a read thru?

She don't want it
She don't need it
She don't need you
Is this a read thru?

Novocaine (demo)

The track is about a murderer on the loose, who gets cornered by the police and decides to take the "easy way" out.  Hope you like it. 

"May Fortune Be"

Let it be
Inner peace
For your crimes
You're on the run
With your gun
To say goodbye

But you can't escape
Just what you've got in store
And you can't explain
When you walk out through the door
And you can't pretend
That it's all up in your head
And it feels?

May fortune be
Between your teeth
Or in the snow
A tick or tock
Against the clock
And he lets go

But you can't escape
Just what you've got in store
And you can't explain
When you walk out through the door
And you can't pretend
That it's all up in your head
And it feels?

May Fortune Be (B-Side)

This song is about Israel and Palestine.  Its about a schoolteacher whose city gets bombarded, and she convinces the kids that its just a game, in order to comfort them.

"From the Ashes"

Its alright,
Its okay
From the ashes,
You were raised.

Not again.
When will it end?
Take your bullets with stride.
Its just pretend.

Well life like this,
it takes it's toll.
You can't escape
to feed your soul.
And if you think
that you're alone
try waking up
To bombs above.

Do-doo, do-doo, do-doo, do-doo
Gone  x8

From The Ashes (demo)

"Our Sinking Ship'

All this time we've spent in chains
You've lost yourself inside your brain
And all in all you're not the same
And na-na-na you can't escape
The moments lost, commiserate
Our sinking ship is sailing straight

*Chorus

And all this time, the days roll by
The cruise control's been simplified
Your wonder if you're still alive
And na-na-na the feelings' gone
You ring the bell, but no one's home
And find yourself all on your own

*Chorus

Our Sinking Ship (live at Oxfest)

This song is about toxic relationships.

"Con:Sonar"

Its bee two days
I've got to get away from your - pain
but if I like it would you - stay?
I feel it growing in my - skin
I'm wearing thin

And in the end
I'm pleased to meet you here my - friend
You know she's loaded when you - spin
Just like your dreams upon the - wall
When you hear her call

And in the night
Well its so much more than do or - die
Just ask me how and I just - might
So take me down a peg or - three
If its what you need.

And in the end
I'm pleased to meet you here my - friend
You know she's loaded when you - spin
Just like your dreams upon the - wall
When you hear her call

And in the end
I'm pleased to meet you here my - friend
You know she's loaded when you - spin
Just like your dreams upon the - wall
When you hear her call
