You're like a shot of Novocain
Everyday is so mundane
Where's your pleasure, where's your pain

You know your lines, I make mine up
You play your hand, I call your bluff
You stand in line, I push and shove

I'm not like you, not like you
You don't really wanna know what's inside of me
You live to use, I've learned to lose
I'm not like you or part of your insanity and I don't wanna be

While you're sleeping, I'm awake
You're transparent, I'm opaque
I spit out more than you can take

You've thought it through, I'm off the cuff
You love to hate, I hate your love
I beg for more, you've had enough

I'm not like you, not like you
You don't really wanna know what's inside of me
You live to use, I've learned to lose
I'm not like you or part of your insanity

You can be so condescending
We all know you're just pretending
You're on stage but no one's listening

I'm not like you, not like you
You don't really wanna know what's inside of me
You live to use, I've learned to lose
I'm not like you or part of your insanity and I don't wanna be
And I don't wanna be
