Gritting broken teeth
I am paying the price
Emotions fade away
Those pills are looking nice

Grinding broken teeth
Explosions of pain
Tearing at my mind
Driving me insane

Chewing broken teeth
Contemplating life
Scratching at raw nerves
And staring at the knife

Biting with broken teeth
Haveing so much fun
Shattered in my flesh
I wish I had a gun

Gritting broken teeth
Grinding away the lies
Chewing broken glass
Biting with my eyes

Is it over yet? I pray
To a God in which I don't believe
I lick my wounds, conceal my scars
And mend the broken teeth

Can they be mended? Too cool, nice and edgy.

Arghh....I think I'm going to the dentist after this...I suddenly have a tootache. Vivid imagery here, Sys, wreaking with pain. I do so hope there is mending in there.

And after-drunkeness of soul
Succeeds the glory of the bowl -
An idle longing night and day
To dream my very life away

Thanks D.B. and Micheal- broken teeth is the best way I can think of to explain emotional pain- at first it is unbearable, but dulls with time.

Evocative of special memories and images this is my friend.

Time heals not all wounds, though awareness of the pain does indeed fade.
