Teeth
I'm the tongue-flooded mouth and I cannot speak
I'm the scars upon your knees
I'm the scrapes allowing your skin to breathe
I could be anything
And it was so brief
A kick in the teeth
Oil and powdered lungs
Because I know how to breathe
And it was so brief
I want more time for luck
And then I go again
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
You're the movements in my sleep
You are the words I couldn't keep
I saw the fumes and watched them seep
Into the wounds you bear to bleed
I could lose everything
And it was so brief
A kick in the teeth
Oil and powdered lungs
Because I know how to breathe
And it was so brief
I want more time for luck
And then I go again
Because I know how to breathe
Because I know how to breathe
Because I know how to breathe
Because I know how to breathe
