"The Bruxist" lyrics

"The Bruxist"

Teeth like magnets
Jaw full of screams
Tongue in a vice
To avoid being mean
And time on my hands
To obsess
Over consequence unknown

I am afraid at this rate
I may never
Roll away this stone

This stone is dark and heavy
And I placed it there myself
Every subconscious reaction
Gives it magnitude and heft
Habits formed for survival's sake
Have turned into the binding chains
I'm still clinging to the hope
That stones can move
And chains can break

Now I've got
Teeth like diamonds
Jaw full of screams
Tongue in a vice to avoid being mean
And time on my hands to obsess
Over consequence unknown

I am afraid at this rate
I may never
Roll away this stone

I am afraid at this rate
I may never
Roll away this stone

I do believe at this rate
I may never
Roll away this stone
