lyrics

daddy finally beat the bottle
jesus saved him from addiction
but the man my mother married
he got lost somewhere in the transition

the jaws of life
will come to cut me out

my brother’s eyes are fixed upon the pixels
my sister she just shaved off all her hair
and daddy waits for orders from the heavens
while mother she cries underwater tears

the jaws of life
will come to cut me out

I finally met the girl that I’d been dreaming of
she taught me you lose everything you steal
so I’ve been speeding with all my new friends
and crashing out at dawn
I’ve been letting go of the wheel

the jaws of life
will come to cut me out
but not this time
no
not this time
‘cos I will laugh at the dripping teeth
pull faces at the bleeding gums
till the jaws of life
turn and run
