Teeth And Tissue - Lyrics by Headstones


Lyrics
Spending time in abandoned hotels
Well that's where I went just to hammer it out
And there's little left of me here but teeth and tissue
It's so hard, so hard to be cautious
When you swim this close to the bottom
All we collect is ourselves and abuse
You said you would, and then you wouldn't
Maybe you tried, but you just couldn't
There's nothing left of me here but teeth and tissue
Teeth & tissue
We all got problems, I got problems of my own and
I choose to solve them, by setting them afloat
I just seem to feel better when they're out of view
You said you would and then you wouldn't
Maybe you tried, but you just couldn't
There's nothing left of us dear but teeth and tissue
Teeth & tissue
Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever come up, come up
The lines are twisted and the mask came off
Building speed in abandoned hotels, well that's
Where I went here just to hammer it out
And there's nothing left of me here but the truth
No longer wonder just what they meant
I wash my hands in the discipline
Sew it all back up with the glue
You said you would and then you wouldn't
Maybe you tried, but you just couldn't
There's nothing left of us but the glue
Teeth and tissue
