Pela - Tenement Teeth lyrics

Give us a beat

for our halfway hearts and tenement teeth!

a beat

to fill up the room

they’ll be splitting soon and dancing without feet

a song

when the days are long and your friends have gone

lock the door, it won’t hurt no more

you won’t feel the floor

it’s only love

it’s only love

we did this before it’s only love

and when the record’s done

let it scrape and scratch

let’s drag up the past and dance

so give us a beat

for our halfway hearts and tenement teeth!

it’s only love

it’s only love

we did this before it’s only love

recognized it right from the start

it was the sound of a breaking heart

are we hammering in our nails?

are we taking down the sails?

according to the pages in books

on modern psychology

a broken heart might not restart

and very well might follow me

down into the water, down into the water

and downward we descend

well i kissed your lips of ruby red

and this is what was said

"land"

"land"

"land"

"land"
