You lit the neon inside of my chest
There was no vacancy
I felt it flicker, the light that you left
You left a space in me

Novacaine
Thought I couldn't feel no pain
But it still feels like ooh
When I hear your name
I can't escape, tryin' but I can't escape
(Let me go)

I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be

You flipped the beat 'round inside of my chest
Changin' the frequency
You had me trippin' the night that you left
Lost electricity

Novacaine
Thought I couldn't feel no pain
But it still feels like ooh
When I hear your name
I can't escape, tryin' but I can't escape
(Let me go)

I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be

Yeah, I got this heart-shaped hole inside of me
I try to fill with anything
Like taking trips and buying things
Burned bridges that once guided me
And I hate the way I watched you leave
My ego got the best of me
I gave you insecurities
These tears fall on my Bentley seats
And all that I feel is depressed
All that I taste is regret
I cannot tell what is real
Only the pain that I feel
You give me nothing but stress
And this echo (echo, echo, echo)
You left in my chest

I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, be, be (be, be, be, be)
I got this echo (echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo)
Where my heart used to be, heart used to be, be
