In typical melodramatic fashion, here are some songs off _with teeth_ that sum things up currently.
love is not enough
The more that we take, the paler we get
I can't remember what it is, we try to forget
The tile on the floor, so cold it can sting
In your eyes is a place, worth remembering
For you to go and take this, to smash it apart
I've gone all this fucking way
To wind up, wind up, back at the start
Hey the closer we think we are
Well it only got us so far
Now you got anything left to show
No, no, I didn't think so
Hey, the sooner we realize
We cover ourselves with lies
But underneath we're not so tough
And love is not enough
It hides in the dark
Like the withering vein
We didn't give it a mouth
So it cannot complain
It never really had a chance
We'd never really make it through
And to think I believed
Believed I could get better with you
Hey the closer we think we are
Well it only got us so far
Now you got anything left to show?
No, no, I didn't think so
Hey, the sooner we realize
We cover ourselves with lies
But underneath we're not so tough
And love is not enough
Left for dead, and all used up
the line begins to blur
There are things that I said I would never do
There are fears that I can not believe have come true
For my soul is too sick and too little and too late
And myself I have grown too weary to hate
The more I stay in here
The more it's not so clear
The more I stay in here
The more I disappear
As far as I have gone
I knew what side I'm on
But now I'm not so sure
The line begins to blur
Is there somebody on top of me?
I don't know, I don't know
Isn't anybody stopping me?
I don't know, I don't know
Well I'm trying to hold my breath
I don't know, I don't know
Just how far down can I go?
I don't know, I don't know
As I lie here and stare
the fabric starts to tear
It's far beyond repair
And I don't really care
As far as I have gone
I knew what side I'm on
But now I'm not so sure
The line begins to blur
every day is exactly the same
I believe I can see the future
Because I repeat the same routine
I think I used to have a purpose
And then again that might have been a dream
I think I used to have a voice
Now I never make a sound
I just do what I've been told
I really don't want them to come around, oh no
Every day is exactly the same
Every day is exactly the same
There is no love here and there is no pain
Every day is exactly the same
I can feel their eyes are watching
In case I lose myself again
Sometimes I think I'm happy here
Sometimes I still pretend
I can't remember how this all got started
But I can tell you - exactly - how it will end
Every day is exactly the same
Every day is exactly the same
There is no love here and there is no pain
Every day is exactly the same
I'm writing on a little piece of paper
I'm hoping someday you might find
I'll hide it behind something
They don't look behind
I am still inside here
A little bit comes bleeding through
I wish this could have been any other way
I just don't know what else I can do
Every day is exactly the same
Every day is exactly the same
There is no love here and there is no pain
Every day is exactly the same
And I've rehearsed my lines
And I know what's coming next
also: I think I'm becoming more bitter . A more malignant bitterness.
