between the teeth

darling you oughtta kill me
i'm all out of ideas
i'm watching the paint dry
hiding upstairs
but i'm in love with this world and
the way that the words sound
tumbling out between the teeth in your mouth
darling you are a joke and we've been laughing for years
about pretending to get it
and I'm scared that i don't...
and life is too short to lose for so long
true love is like an error message
something's gone wrong
the lights start flashing
blue and orange blinking
years start passing
i didn't want to think about it
look into the sun
it shone so bright
could have had you in my arms by the end of the night
darling you oughtta kill me
i'm all out of ideas
i'm watching the paint dry
hiding upstairs
but i'm in love with the world and
the way that words sound
tumbling out between the teeth in your mouth

retromantic, that’s what you call me
you’re pathetic, why did you call me?
oh you’re drunk, that’s what i thought so
don't hang up
and calm me down if you can
call me dumb if you want to i guess
melatonin makes my head feel numb
but I feel better in the morning
superstitions ring in my left ear
something kept me hanging around here
you got out, moved back to your hometown
i checked out
knock three times, come in through the front door
shake my faith, if that’s what it’s there for
place my hands on your chest so i know it’s you
calm me down if you can
and call me dumb if you want to, i guess i am...
melatonin makes my head numb
but I feel better in the morning sun

the scary part
03:26

i was holding my breath until the enemy left
i was trying to survive a homicide
under the miracle mile with the impossible smile
your fake face is a fact that came to saw me in half
i will close my eyes until the scary part is done
i will cover my ears
i don't want to hear that sound
i was holding my breath
a ghastly creature with a cigarette
i was hedging my bets
swinging swords like a shallow threat
i will close my eyes until the scary part is done
i will cover my ears
i don't want to hear that sound

some noise

i was a mechanical girl
you were nuts and bolts and getting older by the minute
you said i don't want to live in this world
every little bit as much as it don't want me in it
til you found a voice
and made a choice
so go make noise like the other boys
(oh if not now, when?
oh and if not then
then what's the point been?)
you made a choice
you lost your voice
go make some noise with the other boys
(oh if not now, when?
oh and if not then
then what's the point been?)
