Lyrics

You said being alive is a type of terminal illness
But you called me in tears when Alexander McQueen died
You were the person who helped me finally get checked into rehab
But you’d drink 5 martinis then tell me you were good to drive
You were less than a lover more than a friend
Like a codependent mother with Munchausen
Losing you was painful and messy
Like pulling a tooth out with a string
And I still can taste the blood in my mouth
When I bite down on anything
I got food poisoning three times when you made us dinner
But I loved you so I ate your cooking anyway
And we were both healing from similar childhood trauma
But I think you liked me better when I wasn’t doing okay
You were more than a friend less than a lover
You were more significant than any other
Losing you was painful and messy
Like pulling a tooth out with a string
And I still can taste the blood in my mouth
When I bite down on anything
And I hate what it did to my smile
I hate what it did to my smile
And you hated drinking water
And going to the dentist
And I trusted you more than
Both of my parents
And now it’s hard to remember
Everything about you
But I still feel an empty space
Without you
Losing you was painful and messy
Like pulling a tooth out with a string
And I still can taste the blood in my mouth
When I bite down on anything
