Love and Lidocaine

by David Marshall   Sep 7, 2010


Ive been looking for a shot to ease my heart,
Calm it down a bit, or rip apart.

Ive been staring to the sky of scarlet light,
in hope of an angel; please end this fight.

my soul rages on an endless battle,
stand up straight, don't fault or rattle.

Ive been crying false tears,
its like a numbing i forgot i ever had.
Ive been screaming inside,
like my voice gave up long ago.
Ive been crawling down a dark tunnel,
Ive been so lost; who am I.

I need a kiss to ease the hurt; ease the pain.
I need a love like what I dream; I need Love and Lidocaine.

I need an Altar to stand upon,
Take my secrets; take my lies.

I need a hand to hold,
take my breathe away; don't let me hide.

Ive been dragging my pride behind my anger,
and it tears at my head.
Its like a squirm of discomfort; my sanity; it hangs by a thread.

my heart beats so fast,
its like I'm waiting for an end.
its like a stab; a cut; the pains my friend.
It lies to me; it greets my sorrow; oh yes i commend.

please hold me now; Disperse the truth.
I need an answer; i need some proof.

I need a kiss to ease the hurt; ease the pain.
I need a love like what i dream; I need Love and Lidocaine.

Numb the pain baby,
I'm about to go insane.
I need your love.
Your Love and Lidocaine.

    Omg! my favorite part is

    "Ive been crying false tears
    Its like a numbing i forgot i ever had
    Ive been screaming inside
    Like my voice gave up long ago
    Ive been crawling down a dark tunnel
    Ive been so lost, who am i."
