Novocaine
pop, Dark glossy alt-pop / electronic R&B at 104 BPM; tight, clean drums and muted sub bass under icy pads and fractured synth swells, Female vocals, soft and detached, float high and ghostlike; verses stay minimal and close-mic’d, with subtle glitch chops on phrases, Chorus blooms wide and cinematic with stacked harmonies, distant choirs, and a slowly rising low-end swell; experimental ear-candy skitters at the edges of the stereo field while the lead stays cool, numb, and centered, clean, female vocals, electronic, r&b, vocal, experimental, glitch, soft
[Verse 1] You touch my wrist Two ghosts in skin Heart on mute Still you pour in Your name in my mouth Tastes safe Tastes plain You flood my veins Sweet slow [Chorus] Novocaine Say it till I feel nothing Novocaine Kiss me till the dark stops cutting Novocaine I don't wanna wake from this Novocaine Empty is a perfect gift [Verse 2] Room out of focus Edges blur I watch my body Move to her I hear you talking From far Far away Every soft promise Fades into grey [Chorus] [Bridge] Turn the volume down on every bruise Turn the color down on every truth If this is wrong I want it strong Let the needle stay Let the world be gone [Chorus]
