Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No front teeth where they all used to go
Broken apart and shinin'
No front teeth, but a feeling I know
Back where the starting line is
[PreChorus]
It's on the camera thrown to the floor
And I grin just a little
It's in the palm of my hand, I feel something
My entire life
It's fine
[Chorus]
Better days, nothing touch me
Light, it breaks on the wings of a dove
Better days, let them touch me
Let it take everything that I know
Let it take everything that I know
[Verse 2]
No front teeth where they all used to go
Foaming my parquet lining
Suddenly, when the cover is pulled
Can I just rest beside it?
[PreChorus]
It's on the camera thrown to the floor
And I grin just a little
It's in the palm of my hand, I feel something
My entire life
[Chorus]
Better days, nothing touch me
Light, it breaks on the wings of a dove
Better days, nothing touch me
Let it take everything that I love
Let it take everything that I love
Let it take everything that I love
Better days, nothing touch me
Light, it breaks on the wings of a dove
Better days, nothing touch me
Let it take everything that I love
Let it take everything that I love
Let it take everything that I love
