Tooth Grinder

Tooth Grinder

Animosity

I wish I could pull this off me

The weight is dragging me down and it's getting exhausting

Frozen in time but the clock keeps ticking

I fear to look at my life and see that there is something I'm missing

Each day I lay awake

Empty inside looking for the next break

I am seeing and I am breathing

But I am looking for a goddamn reason

As my jaw proceeds to separate off of my skull

I wonder how to dig myself out of this hole

I try so hard

But I just can't win

But here we go again

The weeks pile up and I'm ascending downward

Always looking for a plan for the next few hours

I lock it all in and I shut myself up

This is not normal this is not me

Isolated and alienated

My foundation has been decimated

Forlon and f**king war torn

Problems of the world leave my face with a bitter scorn

Please return my carnium

And no has one f**king word to say

To elaborate on how everything is going to be OK

Grief despair anger animosity

I feel hollow but filled up with sorrow

But I keep my head up for a better tomorrow

Grinding my teeth down flat

Morning comes along and my incisors are gone

Lift the curse off of my face

Relieve me of my burden

So I can know my own name

Take a deep breath and blow away the storming rain

I want to reassume my body

I want you to recognize my face

If I could turn back time to a better day

Then maybe I would stop grinding my teeth
