I'll wear your coffin with pride  Tattoo my lips with your touch  Burn for the jealousy in your eyes I'll handle you with this knife To cut these wrists  I shed my skin peeled away from the bone Days like this I pull my nerves apart  Grasping for your heart To feel the beating of misanthropy We lick the wounds from sapphire cuts I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say To me It's like teething on denial I've turned away from the light You lit the room to bury this tomb It's fulfilling to crash We taste the burn on our ribs Cutting our teeth on the nape of our necks I can hear your breath on my ear Suture these lies with rabid tongue I feel you turn away This hunger for you growls Growing sick for your flesh I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say  To me It's like teething on denial I smile thru your taste I hold your hand with my teeth Bitterness, ravenous, aching Carving into the full moon and Late night dances at the graveyard I crave to be near The edge of your space To push you away I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say To me It's like teething on denial I've felt a change In me Its like ashes from the sky I've felt a change In you Its like teething on denial

Teething On Denial
I'll wear your coffin with pride  Tattoo my lips with your touch  Burn for the jealousy in your eyes I'll handle you with this knife To cut these wrists  I shed my skin peeled away from the bone Days like this I pull my nerves apart  Grasping for your heart To feel the beating of misanthropy We lick the wounds from sapphire cuts I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say To me It's like teething on denial I've turned away from the light You lit the room to bury this tomb It's fulfilling to crash We taste the burn on our ribs Cutting our teeth on the nape of our necks I can hear your breath on my ear Suture these lies with rabid tongue I feel you turn away This hunger for you growls Growing sick for your flesh I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say  To me It's like teething on denial I smile thru your taste I hold your hand with my teeth Bitterness, ravenous, aching Carving into the full moon and Late night dances at the graveyard I crave to be near The edge of your space To push you away I know what you say To me It's like ashes from the sky I know what you say To me It's like teething on denial I've felt a change In me Its like ashes from the sky I've felt a change In you Its like teething on denial
