Trophy Teeth (Outlaw Country Trap)

Lyrics

(Verse 1 - Repeat) I fell in love with a shimmer A trick of the light Fell for the charm in the dead of the night But the man that I held? He didn’t exist Just a shadow A vapor A ghostly mist You saw me as a trophy A shiny prize A monster hiding in the friendly disguise (Pre-Chorus) You carved your name in my quiet Like it belonged on my skin But I woke up to the silence Where your halo should’ve been (Chorus) You put your crown on my broken heart Called it love while you tore it apart Fed me dreams with your trophy teeth Smiled so sweet while you hollowed me But I’m done being gold on your shelf On your screen I’m walking off of your stage I’m taking back me (Verse 1 - Repeat) I fell in love with a shimmer A trick of the light Fell for the charm in the dead of the night But the man that I held? He didn’t exist Just a shadow A vapor A ghostly mist You saw me as a trophy A shiny prize A monster hiding in the friendly disguise (Verse 2) You measured my worth by the heads that would turn You kissed my mouth just to watch the world burn Every promise you made was a painted door Nothing behind it but a cold, cracked floor You dressed me up in your borrowed grace Then blamed me when you couldn’t face your face (Pre-Chorus) You lit a match in my ribcage Watched it curl into smoke Thought I’d stay inside your story Thought my spirit would choke (Chorus) You put your crown on my broken heart Called it love while you tore it apart Fed me dreams with your trophy teeth Smiled so sweet while you hollowed me But I’m done being gold on your shelf On your screen I’m walking off of your stage I’m taking back me (Verse 1 - Repeat) I fell in love with a shimmer A trick of the light Fell for the charm in the dead of the night But the man that I held? He didn’t exist Just a shadow A vapor A ghostly mist You saw me as a trophy A shiny prize A monster hiding in the friendly disguise (Bridge) [Band drops to drums and heavy bass, gritty lead guitar] I am not your mirror I am not your win I’m the fire in the doorway You can’t drag back in You named me “yours” in a borrowed tongue But your story’s over And mine’s just begun (Chorus) You put your crown on my broken heart Called it love while you tore it apart Fed me dreams with your trophy teeth Smiled so sweet while you hollowed me Now I’m melting your crown Turning chains into wings I’m burning down your old stage I’m taking back me (Outro) [Guitars ring out, vocal whispering] I fell in love with a shimmer Now I see clear No more monsters in the mirror You disappear! I lost my old self and gained me back! MIMOSA FLOW!
