Of Mice & Men - Pulling Teeth lyrics

Time stops for no man The end awaits us all The seconds sing our eulogies We're trapped inside of The belly of the beast With nothing but our memories And they too fade And it's just like slowly pulling teeth Until your fingers bleed Ravenous and incomplete A hunger that you can't feed The faultlines of life Begin to separate And grace us with catastrophe We stare over the edge Into the vast and open space While the ground on which we stand Disappears And it's just like slowly pulling teeth Until your fingers bleed Ravenous and incomplete A hunger that you can't feed And it's just like slowly pulling teeth Until your fingers bleed Ravenous and incomplete A hunger that you can't feed I thought I was prepared That I was up to the task I said, "I'll be okay." And then my world collapsed Piece, by piece, by piece Like slowly pulling teeth Slowly pulling teeth
