Teeth - Lisa Hannigan

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, and with too much eagerness

To know what is true

When air is changed by you

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

Where the bones and their rattle

They don’t mean anything to no one

I, I had a swing

When my salt was my own

I’d my teeth bared for battle

Till love lost made me dull

It made me dull

It made me dull

Put me back in the bottle

Where the sea meets the sun

Where the bones and their rattle

They don’t mean anything to no one

And I had a swing

When my salt was my own

I’d my teeth bared for battle

Till love lost made me dull

It made me dull

It made me dull
