about

"Mother My Teeth Are Expanding" is a song about the unworldly and uncomfortable feelings I have experienced in my life, wrapped in a groovy, up-tempo song.

When I was very young, I would suffer from night terrors. It was an eerie sensation that I couldn't wrap my head around until much later in life. One reoccurring night terror I had was the feeling of my teeth and gums expanding, sparking some kind of metallophobia at the moment, distress and confusion. However, my parents were only a scream, or a hard stomp on my bedroom floor, away. I have scary yet fond memories of my mum comforting me through these experiences.

Throughout my life, the unworldly and uncomfortable feelings have accumulated into dissociation, depersonalization and derealization, but my coping mechanism hasn't changed. I can always call on my mum who I've discovered I have a lot in common with and figure the weird shit out together. That's what this song is about.
