LYRICS “TEETH”

Verse 1
Step up in the party I’ve got nothing on my body, I can’t go,
Tried to swallow something and I feel my heart stop bumping, I might choke,
Moving through molasses vision blurry through my glasses looks like smoke,
Eyes are all upon me calling on me say it’s time to start the show

Chorus
My teeth fall out, when I fall asleep,
Most nights but I don’t scream,
I sink into the absurdity that holds me when I dream
I don’t need to fear here, all I need is my warm bed
Beaten by the daytime, here I can just rest my head

Verse 2
Now watch me as my feet just float right off the ground
Now watch me as I leave this old decaying town
‘Cos here I can confront my fears no fear of confrontation
When it’s bright outside my mind’s outside to dwell on hesitation
I live with pain and so much shame from awkward situations
I find myself in when did I begin to feel like Larry David

Chorus
My teeth fall out, when I fall asleep,
Most nights but I don’t scream,
I sink into the absurdity that holds me when I dream
I don’t need to fear here, all I need is my warm bed
Beaten by the daytime, here I can just rest my head

Bridge
And I’ve had good dreams but even bad dreams,
Can’t be worse than what I’ve seen,
Happening daily,
Close your eyes and escape, please

Chorus
My teeth fall out, when I fall asleep,
Most nights but I don’t scream,
I sink into the absurdity that holds me when I dream
I don’t need to fear here, all I need is my warm bed
Beaten by the daytime, here I can just rest my head
