Milk Teeth
Morning seeps through the blinds
And joins us in bed and
You stir in your sleep
There goes fear embedding

What if i make you pancakes
But you choose to skip breakfast?
And what if when you're fully awake
You come to your senses

Hours pass on the hood of your car
So little is said
I wait for your arms
And you give your jacket instead

Am i at your disposal?
You tell me i'm nice
But i know i'm only the hostel
'till there's a house that you like

It hasn't been long since
The first kiss goodnight
Said i stole your heart
You called me a thief

This love's but a newborn
So why does it bite
It hasn't even lost
All its milk teeth
So why are you already
Anxious to leave?
I know soon enough we'll come
Apart at the seams
But just one empty kiss
And it's not as bad as it seems

We breathe for different reasons
Both as petty I'd reckon
You for your "well done''s
And me for your welcome

It hasn't been long since
The first kiss goodnight
Said i stole your heart
You called me a thief

This love's but a newborn
So why does it bite
It hasn't even lost
All its milk teeth
So why are you already
Anxious to leave?

So why are you already
Anxious to leave?
