Tooth and Nail
Lyrics
There's something in your chest that I want
You say you don't use it anymore
But I can hear it beating through the walls
It's shaped like a fist
But fighting is not what it's for
I've been stealing your breath
And you've been watching me fade
And I'm beginning to suspect
Dreaming at all
Was our very first mistake
I don't mind drinking myself to sleep
As long as I'm sleeping in your arms
I've been pulling out my teeth
Now you're the only one who can do us any harm
I've been dreaming for days
About my hands on your waist
About the taste of your mouth
And the words that you say
That I know you don't mean
But you'll never come clean
