Teeth

There's no escape for us
It's in our head and on our mind
Always, whoa

Every day
I bite my nails
My front right tooth
Is starting to fail on me

It's sanded down
As I bite my thumb
Until there's nothing
Left but gum

A bloody scene
A senseless creep
My teeth are gone
And I can't sleep

And I can feel the panic
It feels so automatic
My spine is curving
I'm observing
From outside of my body
And I can feel my jaw ache
It feels like it might break
My skin is sagging
It's not worth having
I want it off of my body

And i can feel the panic
It feels so automatic
My spine is curving
I'm observing
From outside of my body
And I can feel my jaw ache
It feels like it might break
My skin is sagging
It's not worth having
I want it off of my body

Oh, I want it off of my body
Oh, I want it off of my body
Oh, I want it off of my body

I've always been crosslegged
Looking up at all the big kids on the benches
At the back of the assembly hall

When I sleep
I grind my teeth
I'm so afraid
That I can't breathe

They're sanded down
My mouth goes numb
Soon there's nothing
Left but gum

I'll be left
In a human heap
Sucking liquid through a straw
Now I can't sleep

And I can feel the panic
It feels so automatic
My spine is curving
I'm observing
From outside of my body
And I can feel my jaw ache
It feels like it might break
My skin is sagging
It's not worth having
I want it off of my body

Oh, I want it off of my body
Oh, I want it off of my body
Oh, I want it off of my body
