lyrics

i left you shoving your head in a cabinet
thought you could dump your voices and take up mine instead
and when you fell apart with hysterical speeches
they blamed it on the smell of coup d’etat and rotten peaches

so am i your sweet tooth
or another dirty word
am i your sweet tooth
or the no you never heard

and you came looking first, a bloodhound playing dead
to catch me laying beside you like your tomb was my bed
and like a spider i thought i’d choked you on my web
but you made playthings of puppet strings and wrapped them ‘round your head

crying like a child for his mother
‘cause i’m another woman you can’t reach

so tell me
am i your sweet tooth
or another dirty word
am i your sweet tooth
or the no you never heard

am i your sweet tooth
or another dirty word
am i your sweet tooth
or the no you never heard

the no you never knew till you held it in your hands
felt it pulse with adrenaline of first love & contraband
all you asked for was the sun but you can’t take the heat
now do the lilacs in my hair make your losing streak complete and

maybe my king is a flame and its embers
maybe my queen is rosemary to remember
the taste of you fade with the riverbeds brimming

but in this version i outlive you, i’ve only gone swimming
