Tongues and Teeth

I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel -
It's all that I can give to you, my dear.
And when you come in quick to steal a kiss,
My teeth will only cut your lips, my dear.

And I know that you mean so well,
But I am not a vessel for your good intent.

I will only break your pretty things.
I will only wring you dry of everything,
But if you're fine with that
You can be mine like that.

Abandon all your stupid dreams
about the girl I could have been, my dear.
'Cause in the night I know you burn with feelings
I cannot return, my dear, oh, my dear.

You gotta know that this won't last.
Desperation will erase the fact
I'm keeping all

Of the answers in my cigarette box.
Yeah, the answer's in the second before the other shoe drops
And if you're blind to that,
I am fine with that.

Oh, I will ruin you.
Oh, I will ruin you.
It's a habit - I can't help it.

I know that you mean so well,
But I am not a vessel for your good intent.

I will only break your pretty things.
I will only wring you dry of everything.
And if you're fine with that
If you're fine with that

I will poison all your happy thoughts.
I love you like the ashes in my cigarette box.
And if you're fine with that,
You can be mine.
If you're fine with that,
You can be mine.
