What it's like to loose your pain...

What can be done,
When you no longer feel,
When you lost what you had left,
Because you just can't heal?

What is it like to loose your pain,
To take on life as Novocain?

A blade no longer stings,
You loose desire to cry,
A hug looses it's warmth,
There's no guilt when you lie.

Happy is a distant memory,
You can't enjoy sensation,
Hope lives in a time unknown,
You don't recall temptation.

It's a life lived numb,
It's an early grave,
But you can't be angry,
Because there's nothing left to save.

There's no ups and downs,
Time just rolls on,
Each moment flows into the next,
Your spirit's totally gone.

Yet, you can do anything,
Because there is no fear,
But achievements aren't enjoyed,
There's nothing you hold dear.

This is what it's like,
Loosing all your pain,
To be nothing at all,
To be like Novocain.
