tongues and teeth
laura easton and ellie maxwell

{LAURA}

I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel
it's all that I can give to you, my dear

{ELLIE}

and when you come in quick to steal a kiss
my teeth will only cut your lips, my dear

{LAURA}

and I know that you mean so well
but I am not a vessel for your good intent

{ELLIE}

I will only break your pretty things
I will only wring you dry of everything

{LAURA}

and if you're fine with that
you can be mine like that

{ELLIE}

abandon all your stupid dreams
about the girl I could've been, my dear

{LAURA}

cause in the night I know you burn with feelings
I cannot return, my dear

{BOTH}

oh, my dear

{ELLIE}

you gotta know that this won't last
desperation will erase the fact

{LAURA}

I'm keeping all of the answers in my cigarette box
yeah, the answers in the second before the other shoe drops

{ELLIE}

and if you're blind to that
I am fine with that

{LAURA}

oh, I will ruin you

{ELLIE}

oh, I will ruin you

{BOTH}

it's a habit
I can't help it

{LAURA}

I know that you mean so well
but I am not a vessel for your good intent

{ELLIE}

I will only break your pretty things
I will only wring you dry of everything

{LAURA}

but if you're fine with that

{ELLIE}

if you're fine with that

{LAURA}

I will poison all your happy thoughts

{ELLIE}

I will love you like the ashes in my cigarette box

{LAURA}

and if you're fine with that

{ELLIE}

you can be mine

{BOTH}

if you're fine with that
you can be mine

{LAURA}

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

{ELLIE}

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

{BOTH}

ha!
