Sugartooth - Brandi Carlile 歌词

Sugartooth - Brandi Carlile (布兰迪 卡莉)

Written by:Phil Hanseroth/Brandi Carlile/Tim Hanseroth

He wasn't really known for breaking the rules

When he arrived in the second year of my high school

He wasn't so much of a twist of fate

As a short turn up from a southern state

He was born with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat

Always trying to find himself something sweet

All that he found was a trouble and me

Or maybe trouble just found him

It was hard to hide that his heart had scars

He would stay up late talking to the stars

People tried to blame him for making bad choices

When he was only listening to the voices

And searching for some kind of deeper truth

Between the lines and the bible and living proof

There's no point now to judge him in vain

If you haven't been there you don't know the pain

He was a liar but not a fraud

Living proof that there was no god

Just the devil stiff as a rod

A slave to a sugartooth

His life became more than he could take

He found a bad habit he couldn't break

Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him

He only took the pills when the doctor told him

Looking to help for the something sweet

To make his life feel as incomplete

What in the hell are you gonna do

When the world has made its mind up about you

He was a liar but not a fraud

Living proof that there was no god

Just the devil stiff as a rod

A slave to a sugartooth

He wanted to be a better man

Then life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back

If not for a sugartooth

They found him lying on his bed

With a gun in his hand and a quiet head

His broken heart now is finally gone

But I know that he had to hurt for too long

To think he had fought it all on his own

Just to lose the battle and die alone

After so many years of feeling the loss

He finally made his way back home

And I helped put what was left in a box

And took it to a place called Jesus Rock

And scattered him all over jagged mound

As a symbol to all that the piece had been found

But not for a sign is left behind

With a hand stuck reaching back in time

To a place in which you can never unwind

I hope he found something so sweet

He was a liar but not a fraud

Living proof that there was no god

Just the devil stiff as a rod

A slave to a sugartooth

He wanted to be a better man

But life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back

If not for a sugartooth

Ooh ooh ooh a slave to a sugartooth

Ooh ooh ooh a slave to a sugartooth

Ooh ooh ooh a slave to a sugartooth

Ooh ooh ooh a slave to a sugartooth
