Teeth

Waking up today it was cold out

There's something I should say

But I can't get my head

Around the bends in your brain

And your elaborate pain makes me tired

As an old balloon I hold my breath

Like a penance paid too soon

With too much eagerness to know

What is true when air is changed by

You it makes it hard

I don't know where it comes from where to go

When the rains come when the rain

Put me back in the bottle

Where the sea meets the sun

When the bones and their rattle

Don't mean anything to no-one

I had a swing when my salt was my own

I'd my teeth bared for battle

Til love lost made me dull

Put me back in the bottle

Where the sea meets the sun

When the bones and their rattle

Don't mean anything to no-one

I had a swing when my salt was my own

I'd my teeth bared for battle

Til love lost made me dull
