Lyrics: Ryan Hall
Music: Ryan Hall
I'm not scared of the silence
I'm in the backseat
Taking hits of something I have never heard of
And I don't think I've ever felt more alive
So cut a hole in my being and crawl right in
Brace for impact, take back everything you said
But nothing that we did
Is this the part where we make up?
Spent six months making small talk
I don't wanna talk with a feeling
I don't wanna sit with my feelings
Nine words, and I can tell where this is headed
Your bed is where I hate for it to end up
Say, "Yes," just for the hell of it, I wake up
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Now I don't need you like I did last summer
Took me way too long to recover
Did you forget your hands around my neck?
'Cause I played that in my head
'Til the chemicals made me weak in the knees
Now I believe I can speak to the trees
It's all a game I've yet to figure out
Now the ringing is too loud
So f*ck that, it's not a style of attachment
Maybe you need a therapist
Making up for the past again, and again, and again
So how the hell you telling me
I'm wasting all my energy
On something that we'll never be now?
Something that we'll never be now
I'm in the backseat
Taking hits of something I have never heard of
And I don't think I've ever felt more alive
So cut a hole in my being and crawl right in
Brace for impact, take back everything you said
But nothing that we did
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
(I'll be honest, loving you is a contest)
(And I don't wanna do it anymore)
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
(So catch me when I'm falling)
('Cause that'll fix our problems)
(I'm in a fetal position on the floor)
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Crying my eyes out
But you don't wanna hear that
I'm sorry if I ever made you sad
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
Blink twice, your love is anesthesia
I'm just scared that it'll all become a memory
And there's nothing I can do about that
