[Verse 1] My razor tongue Every word cuts clean I line you up Like a crime scene Got my verdict Loaded on my lips But the world tilts And my aim slips (oh) [Pre-Chorus] I see my shadow in your shaking hands Same crooked story Just a different skin [Chorus] Before I bite I taste my mirror teeth Every sharp thing you are Is something hiding in me I wanna point I wanna burn you through But every fault I trace Is a crack I share with you I raise my voice Then I hear it break All my righteous rage Got the same old ache Before I curse your name I’m cutting mine On these mirror teeth tonight [Verse 2] I call you selfish But I hoard my pride I say you’re faithless I got exits mapped inside I name you cruel While I twist the knife You’re just playing The part I play in my own life [Pre-Chorus] It’s easier to brand you with my blame Than touch the burn scar that’s wearing my own name [Chorus] Before I bite I taste my mirror teeth Every sharp thing you are Is something hiding in me I wanna point I wanna burn you through But every fault I trace Is a crack I share with you I raise my voice Then I hear it break All my righteous rage Got the same old ache Before I blame your shame I’m hiding mine Behind these mirror teeth tonight [Bridge] What if I held my tongue Let the silence sting Could I face the shape That the quiet brings? If I strip your sins From my paper crown Would I still feel tall Or just come down? (down, down) [Pre-Chorus] I see your shadow Wearing my face Every fake word Already engraved [Chorus] Before I bite I taste my mirror teeth Every sharp thing you are Is something hiding in me I wanna point I wanna burn you through But every fault I trace Is a crack I share with you I raise my voice Then I hear it break All my righteous rage Got the same old ache Before I cry your name I’m calling mine On these mirror teeth tonight On these mirror teeth tonight [Bridge] So I breathe Count to three Name your wounds Then name them in me If I call you cruel I realize where I’ve been If I call you faithless I confess my sin (forgive me we're the same) The fault in you that I wanna rip open Is the one in me I keep hoping No one sees (yeah, that’s me)
