You smile But I’m afraid to take
We’re confined by a distance that I create
Caz even when I’m pressed against face to face
Something tells me run away
Like I’m not safe
Again
Like my feeling they haunt me
Like red lights trying to warn me
I wish that I could fall deeper
I’m sorry
I could never say I love you
Unless it’s through my teeth
Yeah through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don’t think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I’d be lying to myself
Saying I believe
That I’m enough for you to keep
So I say
I love you through my teeth
I hate it when I get this way
I want to talk it out
But now I’d sound insane
Caz nothing I could say could probably explain
Why I blame you for mistakes you haven’t made
Like my feelings they haunt me
Like red lights trying to warn me
I wish that I could fall deeper
I’m sorry
I could never say I love you
Unless it’s through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don’t think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I’d be lying to myself
Saying I believe
That I’m enough for you to keep
So I say
I love you through my teeth
I wish you’d messed up already
Get it over with and hurt me
It’d be so much easier to believe
I wish you’d messed up already
Get it over with and hurt me
But you’re way too kind to me
I could never say I love you
Unless it’s through my teeth
Yeah, through my teeth
Even though I really want to
I don’t think that I could ever be
Enough for you or for me
I’d be lying to myself
Saying I believe
That I’m enough for you to keep
So I say
I love you through my teeth
