Acting Lyrics by Neon Trees

Sink Your Teeth

2024

[Verse 1]
I'm in some type of predicament
Some mid-season reveal where everything you knew was wrong
I thought I was your new ligament
I beg, borrow, and steal for you like some pathetic dog

[Pre-Chorus]
Honest, nothing shocks me anymore
But I still cry at night for the little boy I used to be
Grow up, get yourself some armor
Learn to shoot a gun and guard your heart 'til nothing bleeds

[Chorus]
I got a sore throat from suckin' you off
You got all my better years and I paid the cost
Putting on our game faces, heartbreakers, still know it's truе
You can keep acting like you don't care
And I'll keep acting like I do, ooh

[Verse 3]
I'll stop gеttin' high on the way to rehab
It's so epic and tragic like some 90s junkie film
I know when the only tool's a hammer
And every problem looks just like a nail, you wanna quit

[Pre-Chorus]
Honest, I've been on the edge of it
I guess it's just too good a life to leave too early from
We would end up goin' down in history
With ever codependent, years and years after we're gone

[Chorus]
I got a sore throat from suckin' you off
You got all my better years and I paid the cost
Puttin' on our game faces, heartbreakers, still know it's true
You can keep acting like you don't care
And I'll keep acting like I do, ooh

[Chorus]
I got a sore throat from suckin' you off
You got all my better years and I paid the cost
Putting on our game faces, heartbreakers, still know it's true
You can keep acting like you don't care
And I'll keep acting like I do, I do

[Outro]
I'll keep acting like I do
Keep acting like I do
I'll keep acting like I do
