Comfort in nothing at all  Is better than the darkness when night falls  She turned away and said "i'm dying slow"  I told her "tell me something that i don't know"    Well shit gets hard when you feel you have to lie  And even harder when you feel it's justified    I don't know what to say  I'm better off this way  I'm better off blindfolded today  Novocaine in my veins   It takes away the pain  It keeps me from going insane  I'm better off this way    A tear streamed down her beautiful face  And i felt no pain, not even a trace  It's the fifth time this week she has cried  That makes it the fifth time this week that i have died    Well shit gets hard when you feel you feel you have to lie  And even harder when you feel it's justified    I don't know what to say  I'm better off this way  I'm better off blindfolded today  Novocaine in my veins   It takes away the pain  It keeps me from going insane  I'm better off this way    The distance between fake and real  Is the distance between what you can and can't feel  And the cold that pumps through my veins  Is here to preserve these remains, Oh    I don't know what to say  I'm better off this way  I'm better off blindfolded today  Novocaine in my veins  It takes away the pain  It keeps me from going insane    I don't know what to say  I'm better off this way  I'm better off blindfolded today  Novocaine, Novocaine  Pumping through these ice cold, bloodless veins  I'm better off this way  End
