Sugartooth Brandi Carlile

[Verse 1]
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 the trouble and me
Or maybe trouble just found him

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
