I caught you looking just like me,
What a handbrake turn in your personal policy
Have you been stealing?
Did you want to spit in the street or in somebody's features?

If it’s so easy to cheat,
How soon until you form that attitude that brings others out in bruises?
I only got so tall by swallowing everyone else whole.

Calling it unfair
Sharpening your teeth
I don’t want you picking up after me
Cutting off your hair in a fit of jealousy

Now you have it in your hands
Is it everything you’d thought it would be?
In the ambulance
to the infirmary.

Is this a crisis?
No mirrors in the house, no windows on my street
They know why I feel so ugly
Trading my life for yours as a brand new currency
You can have my place at the table
You can have my seat
I feel so full, I feel so cheap
I want nothing more than to be the unpicked parts of your teeth.

Calling it unfair
Sharpening your teeth
I don’t want you picking up after me
Cutting off your hair in a fit of jealousy

Now you have it in your hands
Is it everything you’d thought it would be?
In the ambulance
to the infirmary.

A hairline crack,
you grabbed me by the arms and I felt them snap
it's only panic in the surgery,
tertiary stage of disease
you can take it from me.

I feel so cheap
It's only unfair if they find out you cheat.
Do you feel scared when you feel them pulling at your sleeves?
Giving an apology that everybody's swallowing.

Calling it unfair
Sharpening your teeth.

Calling it unfair
Sharpening your teeth
I don’t want you picking up after me
Cut off your hair
Shaking from your knees

Now you have it in your hands
Is it everything you’d thought it would be
In an ambulance
to the infirmary.
