Through My Teeth
You smile, but I'm afraid it's fake
We're confined by distances that I create
'Cause even when I'm pressed against you face-to-face
Something tells me, "run away"
Like I'm not safe again
Like my feelings, they haunt me
Like red lights trying to warn me
I wish that I could fall deeper
I'm sorry
I can never say I love you
Unless it's through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don't think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I'd be lying to myself, saying I believe
That I'm enough for you to keep
So I say I love you through my teeth
I fucking hate it when I get this way
I wanna talk it out, but know I'd sound insane
'Cause nothing I can say can probably explain
Why I blame you for mistakes you haven't made, mm
Like my feelings, they haunt me
Like red lights trying to warn me
I wish that I could fall deeper
I'm sorry
I can never say I love you
Unless it's through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don't think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I'd be lying to myself, saying I believe
That I'm enough for you to keep
So I say I love you through my teeth
I wish you'd mess up already
Get it over with and hurt me
It'd be so much easier to believe
I wish you'd mess up already
Get it over with and hurt me
But you're way too fucking kind to me
I can never say I love you
Unless it's through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don't think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I'd be lying to myself, saying I believe
That I'm enough for you to keep
So I say I love you through my teeth
We're confined by distances that I create
'Cause even when I'm pressed against you face-to-face
Something tells me, "run away"
Like I'm not safe again
Like my feelings, they haunt me
Like red lights trying to warn me
I wish that I could fall deeper
I'm sorry
I can never say I love you
Unless it's through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don't think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I'd be lying to myself, saying I believe
That I'm enough for you to keep
So I say I love you through my teeth
I fucking hate it when I get this way
I wanna talk it out, but know I'd sound insane

Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don't think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I'd be lying to myself, saying I believe
That I'm enough for you to keep
So I say I love you through my teeth
