Old Man Markley – Guts N’ Teeth Lyrics

I still see my actions ripple
Grinding hope stones into sand
Losing too much kills the lion
Makes mice of many men
I watched you suffer too
Stuck steadfast to beliefs
And I’m apart from it
But woe is me
And after all underneath
Ain’t we all just guts and teeth?
Ain’t we all just reflections?
Moving in separate directions
In our heads, out of our minds and out of time…
… Has left a crow’s foot brand
Shook me up and beat my hand
Taught me some humility
Left little opportunity
But in the seconds between breath
All my pride means so much less
And it is time that I confess
I’m a part of what went wrong
After all underneath
Ain’t we all just guts and teeth?
Ain’t we all just reflections?
Moving in separate directions
In our heads, out of our minds and out of time
Picking up where we last left it
Trying hard to hide your eyes
Shards of shambled nouveau riche
In the pieces of your life
Backwards ain’t no way of living
In a world synced up with sinning
Hard hearts need forgiving
Well, it’s the only chance we’ve got
Underneath
Ain’t we all just guts and teeth?
Ain’t we all just reflections?
Moving in separate directions
In our heads, out of our minds and out of time
