Verity Fangs

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Verity came in clean White shoes, blue notebook Hands like winter glass Smiling at the footlights She knew my middle name Like she found it in the dirt Then she bit her own tongue And laughed at the red [Pre-Chorus] Something woke up Behind her eyes A little crack A little lie She said my name Like a warning sign Then her shadow moved Half a step behind [Chorus] Verity, Verity Don’t look at me that way Verity, Verity You’re not the same today Teeth in the mirror Claws in the frame Verity, Verity Say my name [Verse 2] Now she walks the hall With a king-broke grin Nails on the drywall Counting to ten She wears my secrets Like stolen skin Every soft little promise Turns mean in her hands [Pre-Chorus] Something woke up Behind her eyes A little crack A little lie She said my name Like a warning sign Then her shadow moved Half a step behind [Chorus] Verity, Verity Don’t look at me that way Verity, Verity You’re not the same today Teeth in the mirror Claws in the frame Verity, Verity Say my name [Bridge] I tried to reach you But you kept changing shape Mouth full of thunder Eyes full of rain If there’s a girl in there She’s buried too deep And the thing that’s wearing you Is learning to eat [Final Chorus] Verity, Verity Don’t look at me that way Verity, Verity You’re not the same today Teeth in the mirror Claws in the frame Verity, Verity Say my name Teeth in the mirror Claws in the frame Verity, Verity Now you’ve gone insane
