At the bone marrow stem cell convention I was feeling pretty low

You had told me it's over because you need time to grow

I was dealing with this new information in the old way that you know

Breaking chairs, clearing bars, ruining lives and wasting chances as I go

Many things I tend to like just exactly 'cause they're soft

Then there's another few things that I love because they're hard like rock

You know I loved your teeth, I felt their structure many times with my tongue

You know I loved your teeth because I kept complimenting your gums

But we all know

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

When I'd been sucking at your ankles in June the bruises stayed for over a month

There's the thing with bruises: if they're good you would prefer them to hold on

There's a bruise I kept with me, you'd been biting my breast and there was blood

A blue breast for brunch with my friends, something to tell them we were hot

I like to think you could white knuckle your body like how you make a fist

I love the prominent bone on your chest, I like to push you down by it

The thought we're just two skeletons wrestling in our bloody bags of skin

We've been so close, we've been so open; now that it's done I wanna live the bruise you been

But we all know

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones

One day

My teeth

Will chew

Right through

Your bones
