I GAVE YOU TEETH

**Verse I**

I carved your name into my lungs

Just to learn how it tasted

Every promise you ever made

Was a weapon I handed you loaded

I kept you holy with shaking hands

While you sharpened your indifference

I should’ve known from the way you watched

You loved the power, not the consequence

**Pre-Chorus**

I begged you to mean it

You begged me to wait

You fed me hope

Then enjoyed the decay

**Chorus**

I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING

YOU LEFT ME IN PIECES

I BUILT YOU A THRONE

OUT OF MY WEAKNESS

I CHOKED ON MY FAITH

JUST TO KEEP YOU CLEAN

I DIDN’T WORSHIP A GOD

I WORSHIPPED A THING

**Verse II**

You called me dramatic

When I started to crack

Like pain only matters

If it’s hurting you back

I bled out politely

So you wouldn’t feel bad

I learned how to suffer

And thank you for that

You watched me unravel

And called it control

If love is surrender

You wanted me soulless

**Pre-Chorus**

Say you didn’t know

Say you were blind

You knew exactly

What you were doing with my life

**Chorus**

I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING

YOU LEFT ME IN PIECES

I BUILT YOU A THRONE

OUT OF MY WEAKNESS

I CHOKED ON MY FAITH

JUST TO KEEP YOU CLEAN

I DIDN’T WORSHIP A GOD

I WORSHIPPED A THING

**Bridge (low, venom, almost spoken)**

Don’t look at me

Like I survived

You didn’t save me

You just let me die slower

If you feel nothing

Good

That’s what you taught me

**Breakdown (pure rage)**

I GAVE

YOU TOOK

I STAYED

YOU LEFT

I PRAYED

YOU SMILED

AND WATCHED

ME BLEED

I GAVE YOU TEETH

AND YOU BIT DOWN

I MADE YOU REAL

YOU BURNED ME OUT

**Final Chorus (screamed / desperate)**

I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING

YOU LEFT ME IN PIECES

YOU FED ON MY LOVE

AND CALLED IT HEALING

I BROKE MYSELF

JUST TO BE SEEN

I DIDN’T LOSE YOU

YOU LOST ME

**Outro (quiet, shaking)**

I hope it was worth it

I hope you feel full

Because I’m empty

And it’s your fault.
