lyrics

Suddenly I'm overly aware of the existence of my teeth
And every little hope that I'd been choking down
Comes rumbling from beneath
But they just get caught
At the pearly white gates of my mouth

Suddenly I'm finding that I'm searching for the secrets that you keep
Hoping that the twitching of a brow betrays the things you feel for me
But they just end up
At the pearly white gates of your mouth
Yeah they just get caught
At the pearly white gates of your mouth

Are you really struggling?
Or are you stuck on autopilot?
Pious in your offerings
But we know they don't really buy it
Can you call it settling if we both kind of really want it?

Suddenly I'm overly aware of the existence of my hands
Seemingly they're feeling kind of homeless without pockets in my pants
So they just end up at the pearly white gates of my mouth
Yeah they just end up at the pearly white gates of my mouth

Am I really struggling
Or am I stuck on autopilot?
Pious in my offerings
But I know they don't really buy it
Can we call it settling if we both kind of really want it?
