Tearable Teeth Lyrics - Singles - Eddie Doldrum

Everyday that you don't get better, man, you're getting worse 

Every drink that you wanna take you know will only feed your thirst 

There ain't no bird that'd hit a window if it's covered in dirt 

There ain't no way that a kid like me will ever have some kind of worth 

So I'm filling all the storm drains up with cigarette butts 

So the next time that it rains all the streets will flood 

Next time that it does rain, all the streets will flood 

All the change that you've been dodging is piled up 

Yeah nickels, dimes, and pennies dropping into paper cups 

There ain't no seed that could ever grow in the pit that you have dug 

There ain't no way you can climb out on a ladder without any rungs 

So you're filling up that hole with all those girls you thought you could love 

Blonde haired reparation for all the battleships you've sunk 

Green eyed medication for all the battleships you've sunk 

So you're caught in the teeth of the tyrant king 

Another little bird to keep his mouth clean 

You're pecking all the flesh off of the people that you've been 

Your bones are exposed, you've grown too thin 

Your bones are exposed, you've grown too thin 

Your bones are exposed 

Your bones are exposed 

Everyday I'm getting better at feeling worse 

Yeah, I call that progress, my sadness comes first 

There ain't no word that could bang a drum if it didn't fucking hurt 

Ain't no way a little boy like me will ever have some kind of worth 

So you're filling all those holes up with those girls you thought you'd love 

Yeah, I'm filling mine up with these cigarette butts 

So the next time that it rains, all the streets will flood
