Teeth In The Floor

[Verse 1]

You pace

I stay

Lined up with the door

You raise your voice

I sink my teeth in the floor

[Pre-Chorus]

You ask

“Why you always make this hard?”

’Cause easy feels like breaking me apart

You call it pride

I call it heart

Same scar

[Chorus]

I won’t move

I won’t bend

I am not your means to an end

You can curse

You can crawl

You can cry some more

I’ve burned all my bridges to guard this door

I won’t shake

I won’t fold

You can’t buy back what you sold

If it costs my peace

Then the price is war

Say what you want

I’ve got my teeth in the floor (yeah)

[Verse 2]

Glass in the sink

From the last time you swore

You’d fix it all

Then you asked me for more

You spin the blame

Like a crown that you wear

But I’ve learned to breathe

With your hands in the air

[Pre-Chorus]

You say

“Why you always walk away?”

’Cause staying means I slowly fade to gray

You call it cold

I call it safe

My way

[Chorus]

I won’t move

I won’t bend

I am not your means to an end

You can curse

You can crawl

You can cry some more

I’ve burned all my bridges to guard this door

I won’t shake

I won’t fold

You can’t buy back what you sold

If it costs my peace

Then the price is war

Say what you want

I’ve got my teeth in the floor (oh)

[Bridge]

Heart like a siren in a quiet street

You keep saying “stay”

But you step on my feet

If standing alone

Is the sound of my roar

Then I’ll scream every second

Till my lungs get sore (yeah)

[Chorus]

I won’t move

I won’t bend

I am not your means to an end

You can curse

You can crawl

I won’t move

I won’t bend

I am not your means to an end

You can curse

You can crawl

You can cry some more

I’ve burned all my bridges to guard this door

I won’t shake

I won’t fold

You can’t buy back what you sold

If it costs my peace

Then the price is war

Say what you want

I’ve got my teeth in the floor

Say what you want

I’ve got my teeth in the floor (hey!)
