Veneers Songtext
von Semler

My teeth are moving, crooked and crossed now
So my speech is changing, my s′s run soft now
I don't wanna believe it, but I think that it′s true
I've become a person who you never knew

It's in the roll of my shoulder, I′m always leaving
The way that I′m shy in a room, scared of speaking
Time is a sculptor and you were a tool
I'll be your worn down, picked apart muse

But if you were browsing, and I′s in a gallery
Wonder if you'd like the things you made out of me
Chiseled and strange, new hopes and new fears
Or would you wish that I′d gotten veneers?


My skin has ink now, I almost got one with you
The absence makes me itch now
Thank God I thought it through
I don't want to believe it, but I think that it′s true
You stuck me like a needle, I hurt you like a bruise

It's in the way you pulled up the mat, like it was easy
Standing out there in the cold, did you see me?
Stuck on the curb like some art you outgrew
Someone picked me up with a new point of view

So if you were browsing, and I's in a gallery
I wonder if you′d like the things you made out of me
Faded and strange, new hopes and new fears
Or would you wish that I′d gotten veneers?

My teeth are moving, crooked and crossed now
