“Tooth and Nail”

​Here we go tooth and nail
Lashing out back in Shell
To hide from all the world for days
Here we go tooth and nail
Careful you don't hurt yourself
With all the painful things you say.
Over and under as the wonder
Finds its way to me
Of time spent in better ways
Over and under as the wonder finds its way to me
My stomach turning constantly
And still appears to be so unfazed
Here we go Tooth and nail
Keep my heart high on the shelf
There it stays always the same
Here we go tooth and nail
Till all is gone and nothing's left
And never cared to change our ways
Over and under as the wonder
Finds its way to me
I look to find a happy place
Over and under as the wonder
Winds its way to me
I found myself lost for days
