She Teaches English?

I'm trying, tried to sleep away the fear
That one day I'll wake up
And you won't be here
So I'll give myself a few more days
And hope and pray
You'll take this pain away
Is everything just falling into place
Is it really meant to be this way
You took from me all there is to take
And I just don't get the words you say

But oh, she teaches English
Cause I can't tell the difference
Between love and loss
And all these words I toss
In swirls inside my head
Clarify this
Can't describe this
So many pens left unpressed
All the words are written clearly
Girl is like a dictionary
Syllables fall through the cracks
The words we've said we don't get back

The lying lion lying through it's teeth
Convinces you he's had enough to eat
You let your guard down for a minute
He swallows you whole and you'll live in him
Is his heart a home or just a prison
Could there be more to this than living
In this loathsome state that I've been given
With all these tears and fears that I'll keep hidden

But oh, she teaches English
Cause I can't tell the difference
Between love and loss
And all these words I toss
In swirls inside my head
Clarify this
Can't describe this
So many pens left unpressed
All the words are written clearly
Girl is like a dictionary
Syllables fall through the cracks
The words we've said we don't get back
The words we've said we don't get back
