Lyric

In the clinic in the early morning

The white light is as quiet as the sea

I put on my gloves

And my fingertips touch the cold instruments

The patient's mouth is slightly open

Like a tightly closed door

Hiding the fragments of life

And the hidden pain

The drill whispers

The air is filled with the smell of mint and metal

The light slides across the silver edge

Time is as slow as an anesthetic

The sunlight outside the window falls on the teeth

Reflecting some tiny salvation

I stare at the darkness between the teeth

Like exploring a silent universe

Days pass by

Each tooth is a story

And I am just a restorer

Stitching the cracks in silence

Take off your gloves in the evening

And silence follows me out of the clinic

The night breeze blows my face

The daily life of a dentist

Quietly flows into the twilight
