Rust in My Teeth

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came home with a split lip grin Mom said, "Boy, what you been in?" I said, "Just the usual hell Just the kind that knows me well" My truck door hangs by a thread Three good years and a busted head Still rolls out past the gravel bar Like it ain't learned how to quit so far [Pre-Chorus] And I don't fold I don't bend I just hit that wall again You can count me out Count me out I'll be back around [Chorus] Call it rust in my teeth Call it home underneath I bite down, I don't leave I was built on a broken belief (Rust in my teeth) (Yeah, rust in my teeth) [Verse 2] She left a note by the sink Said I talk more than I think Fair enough, I let it burn Watched the whole damn lesson turn Now the dog knows when I'm near He circles up, then disappears Even the porch light looks away Like it knows I might stay [Pre-Chorus] And I don't fold I don't bend I just hit that wall again You can count me out Count me out I'll be back around [Chorus] Call it rust in my teeth Call it home underneath I bite down, I don't leave I was built on a broken belief (Rust in my teeth) (Yeah, rust in my teeth) [Bridge] If you want a saint, I'm not your guy I'm the last good spark in a busted wire I take the hit, I take the blame Still come back hungry all the same [Final Chorus] Call it rust in my teeth Call it home underneath I bite down, I don't leave I was built on a broken belief (Rust in my teeth) (Yeah, rust in my teeth) Call it rust in my teeth I don't leave, I don't leave
