A song from the point of view of a Christian whose little sins have added up and made him numb to the Spirit.
christian rock contempora
Contemporary eclectic, alternative, rock, country, fusion, electronic, ska, punk, metal. Okay, that's enough.
Things have changed since I first wrote and uploaded these Christian songs. I no longer count myself a Christian and am pursuing musical expression of my new mindset. Hopefully there will be more to see on this page soon.

Story behind the song
I've had times, even recently, where the little failures in my life and the little sins that frustrate me start adding up and give me a sense of separation and insensitivity to the Spirit of God.
Lyrics
V1 Another day, Wasted away without You. Done my best to push You away, Little failures, quiet sins. Sometimes I wish that it was over, That I could give up and give in. V2 I don't feel, Anything real about You. I don't mean, To treat You like this, You've gotten easy to ignore. Sometimes I wish that I could find You, And come back from where I've been. CHORUS Novocaine, I want to feel Your pain. I am desperate for Your touch. V3 One by one, My secrets run around me. Every one, A shot in my mouth, A little pin prick, nothing more. Sometimes I wish that I could go back, And make that first choice once again. CHORUS BRIDGE When does this wear off? Where do I go? Oh, God, please help me, 'Cause I don't know. My heart has fallen to sleep. I'm numb, and I can't find my way. V4 I admit, I know how to get my heart back. I can't be, Too honest with me, When I'm pretending that I don't. Sometimes I wish that I was stronger, To stop this tragic tailspin. CODA Novocaine...
