Sweet Tooth
Sweet Tooth: A Bittersweet Tale of Heartbreak and Choices
Lyrics
Let's spot the difference cos we're similar
Comparing similarities despite differences.
Had a gut feeling I knew it from the start
Intuition sensed the outcome from the beginning.
Seeing you and him together tears me apart
Painful to witness you with someone else.
I had a gut feeling that you would break my heart
Anticipated heartbreak from the start.
But I can't let this get to my head
Resisting overthinking despite emotional turmoil.
Got to do my thing
Focusing on personal pursuits.
Make myself last
Putting personal needs behind.
Lying all alone in my bed
Feeling lonely and upset.
I've got to move on fast
Intention to move forward swiftly.
Cos I know I compare myself to you
Constantly measuring self against you.
And I know that I can't handle the truth
Knowing inability to face the reality.
I've got choices but I only want you
Despite options, desire only for you.
I need you back cos I have a sweet tooth
Craving for your return, longing.
Take one breathe look into my eyes
Request to pay attention, notice.
You're back with him oh what a surprise
Surprised at your reunion with another.
And I'm alone yeah I'm in the blues
Feeling down and desolate.
Don't call me up cos I have a sweet tooth
Refusing contact due to longing for them.
You look so different, I don't recognise
Not recognizing their changed appearance.
Nothing to compare to us you're hidden in disguise
No comparison to their bond, masked.
Don't come back I've seen that look in somebody's eyes
Advising against their return, distrustful.
Envious he likes to keep his hands on the prize
Jealousy in another's possessiveness.
But I can't let this get to my head
Resisting emotional turmoil.
Got to do my thing
Focusing on personal pursuits.
Make myself last
Putting personal needs behind.
Lying all alone in my bed
Feeling lonely and upset.
I've got to move on fast
Intention to move forward swiftly.
Cos I know I compare myself to you
Constantly measuring self against you.
And I know that I can't handle the truth
Knowing inability to face the reality.
I've got choices but I only want you
Despite options, desire only for you.
I need you back cos I have a sweet tooth
Craving for your return, longing.
Take one breathe look into my eyes
Request to pay attention, notice.
You're back with him oh what a surprise
Surprised at your reunion with another.
And I'm alone yeah I'm in the blues
Feeling down and desolate.
Don't call me up cos I have a sweet tooth
Refusing contact due to longing for them.
And it's been a long time
Long duration since they were together.
Since I've called you mine
No intention to return to the past.
And I ain't coming back for a while
Declaring independence for a while.
And when people ask me
Responding with a false "I'm fine" to inquiries.
I say I'm fine
Implying contentment despite pain caused by them.
Cos you know you kill me with your smile
Acknowledging the impact of their smile.
I know I compare myself to you
Constantly measuring self against you.
And I know that I can't handle the truth
Knowing inability to face the reality.
I've got choices but I only want you
Despite options, desire only for you.
I need you back cos I have a sweet tooth
Craving for your return, longing.
Take one breathe look into my eyes
Request to pay attention, notice.
You're back with him oh what a surprise
Surprised at your reunion with another.
And I'm alone yeah I'm in the blues
Feeling down and desolate.
Don't call me up cos I have a sweet tooth
Refusing contact due to longing for them.
I have a sweet tooth
Reiteration of the craving for them.
