"Teeth" lyrics

You took me to the place you skinned your knees
When you were nine years old
Told me how your mother never grew up
But boy she sure grew old

And she did it fast
They say cheap houses aren't built to last
And I'll say okay
It's easier that way

Even though Ms. Robinson did pray
It seems her time was wasted
Tell me again about God up in his good heaven
Sweetest wine I've tasted

When the fire comes
I'll be the first to burn
When the water comes
I'll be the first to drown

I am my father's only daughter
I am all I have to offer
I am my father's only daughter
You are swimming in clear water

When you felt the sting of the blade
Did you taste my teeth?
When you fell from the edge
Were you thinking of me?
When you scratched the infested pit in your stomach
Did you know it was me? It was me who dug it
When you stay up at night
Are you scared of my ghost?
When you love her
Did you know you love me the most?
When you pull at the bloody red ropes of your guts
Do you think of me sweetly, the cut of my touch?
