Cut Her Teeth

From a family of artists where no one creates
Afraid of the shadows and future mistakes
She cut her teeth on a new set of paint
And covered her arms and down her legs
'neath all then lines she don't let no one see
She covers herself, this love's for me
She covered herself, this love's for me

His parent feared God and got off on pain
A life modeled by the way they drank
So he quit school and moved out of state
They met in a kitchen pretending a stage
Singing duets with somebody's baby
He thought to himself, this love's for me
He thought to himself, this love's for me

No one else in this town needs to know
Just leave em standing there are their homegrown punk rock shows
Cuz I've been young too long to act like I am old
But together, maybe we can write something our own

Like water on still ponds, together they made
A family of fighters learning to be brave
With friends and old lovers on a late summer day
They sang a duet without a stage
The years vowed ahead, tomorrow will bring
Covered in love for everyone to see
Covered in love for everyone to see
Covered in love for everyone to see
