"Baby Teeth" lyrics
"Baby Teeth"
I only know one half of me
Cause all I got was half of you
But I came of age in every way
I felt the pressure to
I can live with broken bones
From stones that I refuse to throw
Maybe I've got better reasons than
My bible tells me so, to let it go
Please don't let me leave here
With this heartache left unmapped
There's not soul I won't disown
For all my friends and family back
But you know that you know
And it feels like God himself don't care to remember
That a star just fell to earth somewhere in America
I still push my feelings down
Like playground tyrants taught me to
Were you only proud of me
When I could be as numb as you?
Even when unmended fences
Fade to graves the way they do
I'll be wishing every sour note I ever played
Was beautiful to you
Please don't let me leave here
With this heartache left unmapped
There's not soul I won't disown
For all my friends and family back
But you know that you know
And it feels like God himself don't care to remember
That a star just fell to earth somewhere in America
I turned the other cheek till
You broke my baby teeth and I
Still taste the blood I swallowed
To walk this crooked high road
I turned the other cheek like Jesus
Till my baby teeth were gone
Please don't let me leave here
With this heartache left unmapped
There's not soul I won't disown
For all my friends and family back
But you know that you know
And it feels like God himself don't care to remember
That a star just fell to earth somewhere in America

Josh Wilson - "How To Fall" It was prettier than poetry the first time you said hello to me
Well, call it crazy, call it meant to be, yeah
But it didn't take me long to see
That you mean more than anyone
I'm running in...
Smash Into Pieces - "Ride With U" Feels like I'm burning when you look around and smile at me
Feels like I'm, feels like I'm burning, burning
You are forbidden and it makes me want you even more
Feels like I'm, feels like I'm...
Barenaked Ladies - "Did I Say That Out Loud?" I know you're not to kiss and tell,
But maybe nobody has ever kissed as well as you do,
Don't know what's got a hold of me,
Alcohol or alchemy,
I know you're not to kiss and tell - oh well. Anywhere...
Kevin Rudolf - "Here's To Us" Everybody's got a story they must tell an'
You got yours and I got mine
All the times you felt the pain and seen the glory
It feels good to be alive
Now I can hear the sound
Of heartbeats all...
Every Avenue - "Mindset" I got my mind set on you
There's nothing you can do to change my mind about it
Inside out, you're beautiful
There's nothing you can do to change my mind about you
It started innocent enough,...
