  • Walk me back to your house, watch me rot in his place
    With your hand in my pocket and your eyes on my face
    I'll sit and pretend that I can hear what you say
    I'd usually nod in agreement, but just not today

    Got this toothache
    That won't heal but won't break
    And it hurts, but I can never get enough

    Put me down in your chair
    I'll watch you place your constraints
    When I start leaning back
    I'll care to stomach the pain
    You cut into my mouth
    And I can't help but taste all the moments we have
    Leave me feeling the same

    Got this toothache
    That won't heal but won't break
    And it hurts, but I can never get enough

    She calls sometimes when she needs someone
    And she's got no-one to pick up the phone
    It ruminates and it takes its toll
    Then I close my mouth and end up alone
    She calls sometimes when she needs someone
    And she's got no-one to pick up the phone
    It feels so wrong when I play along
    But I pray the line will break
    And she cries her heart out
    She cries her heart out
    She cries her heart out
    She cries her heart out

    (She cries her heart out)
    Got this toothache that won't heal but won't break
    (She cries her heart out)
    And it hurts, but I can never get enough
    (She cries her heart out)
    Got this toothache that won't heal but won't break
    (She cries her heart out)
    And it hurts, but I can never get enough, no Writer/s: Aleksi Kiiskinen, Eeli Savolainen, James Marriott, Jono Suter, Louis Salanson, Matthew Gavin, Samuel Horsley
