Crooked Teeth

It was one hundred degrees

As we sat beneath a willow tree

Whose tears didn't care

They just hung in the air

And refused to fall, to fall

And I knew I'd made horrible call

And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall

And there was no doubt about which side I was on

Cause I built you a home in my heart

With rotten wood, it decayed from the start

Cause you can't find nothing at all

If there was nothing there all along

No you can't find nothing at all

If there was nothing there all along

I braved treacherous streets

And kids strung out on homemade speed

And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep

At all, woo, hoo, woo, hooo

Cause at night the sun in the tree

Made the skyline look like crooked teeth

In the mouth of a man who was devouring, us both

You're so cute when you're slurring your speech

But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave

And you can't find nothing at all

If there was nothing there all along

No you can't find nothing at all

If there was nothing there all along

I'm a war, of head versus heart

And it's always this way

My head is weak, my heart always speaks

Before I know what it will say

And you can't find nothing at all

If there was nothing there all along

There were churches, theme parks and malls

But there was nothing there all along
