lyrics

Feels like everything is ending.
Or is it really beginning?
All of us pretending we're kidding when you're still listening.
Whispering to fix a wing, you gotta get the kids to sing.
Survival is so sickening, I know I'll never kill the king.
Music's saved me lately baby, it's this helplessness that's hell to quit
so I dwell a bit, tellin kids they'll admit I'll be writin shit and sellin it
long after they're all skeletons, it's all irrelevant.

I'll keep livin.
While they speak in fiction.
I won't even listen, don't wanna be a victim, they leave it hidden.
I should've written.
Admitting its the worst of the best of times.
You heard my depressing lines, lifetime anesthetized, and they wonder why I feel less alive.
Don't wanna step in line, believe what was said allegedly.
Don't need to get this high to try to forget what you meant to me.
I keep talking about borders, disorders, I've been pacing around.
Face in a frown, stayin in town now.
Down, out, drowned and I hate what I've found.
This life is all one ways.
It gets hard to trust fate.
Somedays it feels like loves fake, trying to stay above snakes.
This life is all flood gates.
That open just to frustrate.
Some days I just say fuck fate.
Still above snakes.
I've been livin so reckless.
Feelin like wreckage.
Haven't been missin my exes.
I've been skipping on breakfast.
Thinkin about the message. If I really meant this.
If I don't call you back it's cause I'm always wrapped up in a skull that's cracked. Pulse intact, all syntax fallin fast, not crawlin back, Colin's sad until the songs exact.
I've been livin like I'm never gonna die.
Like my eulogys a pop song, soft long lullaby.
Like problems underlined by toxins undefined from another time I was nullified.
And i dont wanna lie unless it's to a policeman.
They're sayin what we're seein is freedom I don't believe em.
Same way that life goes when you take the right dose. We've been wearing blindfolds, eyes closed,
I know...

This life is all one ways.
It gets hard to trust fate.
Somedays it feels like loves fake, trying to stay above snakes.
This life is all flood gates.
That open just to frustrate.
Some days I just say fuck fate.
Still above snakes.
This life is all rough days.
You'll end up with some scrapes.
In a drunk daze,
with that familiar blood taste.
Above snakes.
This life is all mundane.
Every nights a Sunday.
Things are going just great.
I'm still above snakes.

Happy Tooth Columbus, Ohio

"Both Happy Tooth and BDotJeff spoke to the idea that music can be therapeutic, and writing and recording is now less about reaching a larger audience than steadying the turmoil within. “You do start to question your own motivations, like, why am I doing this?” Happy Tooth said. “And I’ve realized that I love the art, and I have to make it because deep down it makes me feel better.” - MatterNews ... more
