Rust in My Teeth

[Verse 1]

Teeth grind

Jaw wired in steel

Clock ticks

I don’t get to heal

Breath burns

Air tastes like chrome

Bare fists

Punching through my bones

[Pre-Chorus]

How much can a thin red thread take

Before it snaps

Before I break

You pull

You twist

You drag me deep

I won’t die quiet

I won’t die weak (hey!)

[Chorus]

I got rust in my teeth

I spit it out

Every word that you fed turns into a shout

You wanna cage my rage

Chain my scream

I’ll tear through the bars

Rip out the seams

Rust in my teeth

Can you taste that fear

Bite down hard till the pain gets clear

You built this pressure under my skin

Now watch me kick your kingdom in

[Verse 2]

Cold stare

You turn

You pretend

Tight lips

You call it a friend

Thick smoke

Crawls under my tongue

Dry throat

Still I breathe like a gun

[Pre-Chorus]

How long till your castle walls shake

Till every crack you made starts to quake

You twist

You choke

You watch me bleed

I’ll carve a way out

I’ll make you see (woah)

[Chorus]

I got rust in my teeth

I spit it out

I got rust in my teeth

I spit it out

Every word that you fed turns into a shout

You wanna cage my rage

Chain my scream

I’ll tear through the bars

Rip out the seams

Rust in my teeth

Can you taste that fear

Bite down hard till the pain gets clear

You built this pressure under my skin

Now watch me kick your kingdom in

[Bridge]

Three seconds

Silence… then the hit

Whole room

Shakes when I commit

One spark

All your walls collapse

One scream

That you can’t send back

[Chorus]

I got rust in my teeth

I spit it out

Every word that you fed turns into a shout

You wanna cage my rage

Chain my scream

I’ll tear through the bars

Rip out the seams

Rust in my teeth

Can you taste that fear

Bite down hard till the pain gets clear

You built this pressure under my skin

Now watch me kick your kingdom in (yeah)
