Red Teeth

You took the robin You put the stone in its throat Now every note it sings rattles, rattles You took the orchid You wrapped its petals in the frost Now when it shakes it off, it rattles, it rattles (Could you shake it off like it was nothing?) Red in the front teeth: You tried to terrify the sun Stare down the rays of light 'til it was gone It took every power You know I claim to possess Just to convince myself it's harmless, it's harmless I'm considering things that I wouldn't have When I was young I'm considering things I know shouldn't be done I'm attracted to the dark: What moves and what sparks? I'm considering things that I wouldn't have When I had a heart You drew my power out Like it was poison now
