"Novacaine" is a song by American alternative metal band 10 Years.
It peaked at number 5 on the Billboard US Mainstream Rock Songs chart.
The song was first released on August 16, 2017,[4] as the first single from the band's eighth studio album, (How to Live) As Ghosts.
Lyrically, Hasek explained that the song is about the loss of enthusiasm people go through as they transition from youth to adulthood.
[2] The song was noted as being less aggressive than the songs of their prior album, From Birth to Burial, and not as epic as their biggest single, "Wasteland", but that it still contained Hasek's soaring vocals over a big guitar sound.
