Lyrics Tongue and Teeth - Subtlety

Excuse my stutter when I speak
It's hard to talk when I have my tongue wrapped around my teeth
Say what I don't mean and make promises I can't keep
I'll be the death of you, you'll be the death of me
I'll be the death of you, you'll be the death of me

You know I've got a way with words
I lie and you believe
You'll be buying it, you'll be buying it
Because we all know talk is cheap
But it's all you can afford to get yourself to sleep

Pardon the fork in my tongue
To the truth is how it slides
I can't look you in your eyes
The price to pay for peace of mind is high,
The price to pay for peace of mind is high
I'll be the death of you, you'll be the death of me
I'll be the death of you, you'll be the death of me

You know I've got a way with words
I lie and you believe
You'll be buying it, you'll be buying it
Because we all know talk is cheap
But it's all you can afford to get yourself to sleep
To tell the truth to tell this lie
Can't look you in your eyes
The price to pay for peace of mind

You know I've got a way with words
You know I've got a way with words
