I'm the teeth that gnash I'm the trembling ash on your cigarette I'm the tangled line That always seems to wind around your neck I'm the heavy hammer That you seize to make something new But all you can do is break I'm the subtle dagger Up your sleeve when someone's to blame For making the same mistakes I'm the mother tongue I'm the manic fear when you hit send I'm the monstrous maze Where you've been lost for days and days on end I'm the heavy hammer That you seize to make something new But all you can do is break I'm the subtle dagger Up your sleeve when someone's to blame For making the same mistakes I'm every fear that steals your sleep And each precious thing that you can't keep I'm the teeth that gnash I'm the teeth that gnash I'm the teeth that gnash I'm the teeth that gnash I'm the teeth that gnash
