TOOTHJAR lyrics

[Verse 1]
Binding vow is null and void
Traded flesh for the fever of finding out what summons joy
Are you really "free from the wealth that would tie you down" or just unemployed?
Built an ark when you settled in the tundra
Rot where it stood
Now the hull’s destroyed
It was beat into skull like—

[Verse 2]
Aww, don’t you see what you leave to the moths?
Men die on their pick for the gemstones
Mine anything but deep-rooted flaws
Don’t pay any mind to the glint of the sun on the ring that peeks through the shawl
Shut the f*ck up and kneel for your god
"Close your eyes and the ash on your face feels a little like rain"
You don't seek truth at all

[Verse 3]
Spit on your scriptures
Left the spiritual cursed you
I was in the cold so long developing vitriol for virtue
Been grounded in the earth since heavens lit me up and burned through
I’m giddy off of thirst
Prove your worth to me, huh
[Chorus]
UV light refracted through the jewel shards
Moving through the night to track the way the moon arcs
What a pretty smile, I think I’ll add it to my tooth jar
To my tooth jar
Yuh, scorched earth
All that glistens is a new friend
Clad myself in scavenged metals like the humans, huh
"You can’t hoard possessions if you use them"
You’re a fool then

[Refrain]
Stack 'til the roof is hit
Way too cool for the koolaid, the rest of the shackled will choose to drink
You tell me you again that the self isn’t something a vacuum can prove exists
Then what kind of room is this?
Need it so packed I can’t move an inch
Your body’s a temple and full of—

[Verse 4]
Don't bother burying my body with the weightless
At the gates I’ll pay my way into the waitlist
I’m collecting for the nest like the crows
Break and enter for your assets like the bailiffs
Blood underneath my fingernails froze
How could I not feel your heat and then drain it?
Strip a moth of it’s greed and it’s aimless
I’m stealing the stainless
Stealing the—
Huh
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Refrain]
Stack 'til the roof is hit (Ah)
Way too cool for the koolaid, the rest of the shackled will choose to drink (Ah)
You tell me you again that the self isn’t something a vacuum can prove exists (Ah)
Then what kind of room is this? (Ah)
Need it so packed I can’t move an inch (Ah)
Your body’s a temple and full of—

[Chorus]
UV light refracted through the jewel shards
Moving through the night to track the way the moon arcs
What a pretty smile, I think I’ll add it to my tooth jar
To my tooth jar
Yuh, scorched earth
All that glistens is a new friend
Clad myself in scavenged metals like the humans, huh
"You can’t hoard possessions if you use them"
You’re a fool then (Give it to me)

[Verse 5]
Man can’t live off bread alone
I’m battered and emaciated
Family fallen dead
My home is blackened and irradiated
I’ll even take the teeth out your body
I'll clean and I’ll polish
The gleam’s all I wanted
[Verse 6]
I don’t give a damn about the value I can sell it for
Put the rattle in your chest to hear the rattle of a chest of drawers
Before I was a thief here you robbed me
I’d bleed for the solid
To keep me from rotting

[Chorus]
UV light refracted through the jewel shards
Moving through the night to track the way the moon arcs
What a pretty smile, I think I’ll add it to my tooth jar
To my tooth jar, yuh
Yuh, scorched earth
All that glistens is a new friend
Clad myself in scavenged metals like the humans, huh
"You can’t hoard possessions if you use them"
You’re a fool then
