Raining Teeth
Raining Teeth: Unveiling Life's Dark Comedy
Lyrics
I've been going through changes
I've been experiencing significant life changes.
I've been losing friends and I've been losing sleep
I've lost friends and suffered from sleep loss.
I've been going through phases
I've been going through different stages or situations.
Reevaluating my hopes and dreams
I'm reassessing my aspirations and goals.
They think they are prophetic
Others believe they can predict the future.
And I am an omen
I am considered a sign or symbol of something significant.
But last night it was raining teeth
There was a disturbing event last night, symbolized by "raining teeth."
But last night you were looking at me
Someone was observing or judging me during that event.
I used to think my life was tragedy and tribulation
I used to view my life as filled with sorrow and challenges.
A made for TV movie for some sickos entertainment
My life seemed like a dark, twisted movie for someone's perverse enjoyment.
When I saw the cue cards and I read the screenplay
Realizing my role as the protagonist in a messed-up comedy.
I realized I'm the hero in a fucked up dark comedy
Discovering the unconventional nature of my life story.
I've been feeling like a rolling stone stuck in someone else's shoe
I feel like I'm stuck in a situation not of my making.
And I'm about to lose my cool
I'm on the verge of losing control or composure.
I've been feeling like your last cigarette
I feel disposable or used up, like a last cigarette.
Because I'm all that you get
I'm the only option or source of satisfaction for someone.
And I'll never be enough
I believe I'll never be sufficient or meet expectations.
I feel like the god damn red sea
I feel overwhelmed and divided like the Red Sea.
Because you're always walking over me
Others consistently take advantage of or disregard me.
I want to preach my sermon but the choir boys have got it out for me
I want to share my wisdom, but I face opposition.
Last night they pulled me out of bed
I was forcibly removed from my comfort or security.
They cut my hair
My identity or individuality was forcibly altered.
Gouged out my eyes
A violation of my perception or understanding occurred.
All while I was asleep
All these disturbing events happened while I was unaware.
I used to think my life was tragedy and tribulation
Repetition of lines 9 and 10.
A made for TV movie for some sickos entertainment
Repetition of lines 11 and 12.
I took a step back so I could find myself some clarity
Taking a step back for introspection and clarity.
And when I found it I couldn't stop laughing
Finding clarity led to an unexpected emotional response.
I've been feeling like a rolling stone stuck in someone else's shoe
Repetition of lines 13 and 14.
And I'm about to lose my cool
Repetition of line 15.
I've been feeling like your last cigarette
Repetition of lines 16 and 17.
Because I'm all that you get
Repetition of line 18.
And I'll never be enough
Repetition of lines 19 and 20.
I feel like the god damn red sea
Repetition of lines 21 and 22.
Because you're always walking over me
Repetition of lines 23 and 24.
And I have never known more ecstasy
Despite the difficulties, there's intense pleasure when you impact me.
Than how it feels when you hit my bloodstream
The heightened sensation when you affect my emotions deeply.
