Hot Gum

Sofia Isella

6

I hold soft flames on my tongue

And chew on them like chewing gum

They burn the roof of my mouthBut I won′t spit it out loud right now

There's an inferno in your mouth

I can tell by the way you smile like it burns

You press your lips together

Like you′re kissing yourself to stop me from learning

He's a keeper, he's a believer

He′s on the ground on his knees in a theater

And he put us in a car, I don′t know where we are

But he fell in love with the fever

"I could never leave her, I could never keep her"

That's what he says to the neighborhood preacher

And he put us in a car, I don′t know where we are

But I fell in love with the fever and I

I watch us burn and fall

The heat is ten feet tall

The potential is bench-pressing us into the wall

And the flicker flames weave in through my teeth

If the hot gum were to slip out, where would we be?

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

(Aw)

(One to two)

Your teeth wanna tattle and confess to me

Your molars are complaining and I can hear them weep

Sucking on fire while you're a liar that says they feel nothing

Your hand is watching mine like an LA hawk

My hand is well aware that it′s being stalked

Won't see it smile while I′m chewing on the flame

'Cause I've never been one to ruin the game

He′s a keeper, he′s a believer

He's on the ground on his knees in a theater

And he put us in a car, I don′t know where we are

But he fell in love with the fever

"I could never leave her, I could never keep her"

That's what he says to the neighborhood preacher

And he put us in a car, I don′t know where we are

But I fell in love with the fever and I

I watch us burn and fall

The heat is ten feet tall

The potential is bench-pressing us into the wall

And the flicker flames weave in through my teeth

If the hot gum were to slip out, where would we be?

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

(Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)

Your teeth are on fire, do you notice? No

Your mouth is burning, do you notice? No

Your hair burns, my hair burns

Your skin burns, my skin burns

Do you feel anything? No

Do you feel anything? No

If I tell you what I'm thinking

Promise you won′t tell yourself

If you tell me what you're thinking

I swear I won't tell myself

He′s on the ground, he′s on his knees, he's a believer

He′s on the ground, he didn't listen to the preacher
