Bassist/Vocalist Becky says Vitamins “is about the catch 22 of being in love with somebody and knowing that your relationship is headed for disaster. Love playing it live, its a proper head banger. The boys got it straight away and made my idea into the song that it is now, big up!”

Milk Teeth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And threw it like it never mattered
Come here and kiss the blues
Stay you'll ____?____?____?
Break me
Gently
Make me
Jelly
Cut the ties that lead this dry
Cover the wound with one more lie
Come kiss the pain away
To last another day
Take me
Mend me
Take me
Mend me
Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me
Mend me
Milk Teeth's song "Vitamins" is a powerful expression of the pain of heartbreak, and the desire to be loved and cared for. The lyrics lament the betrayal of trust by a loved one who takes the heart on a platter but then throws it away as if it never mattered. The pain and hurt are palpable as the singer beckons the unfaithful lover to come and "kiss the blues" while noting that staying would help "break" them gently and turn them "jelly."
The second verse continues in the same vein, with the singer imploring the former lover to cut the ties that led to their breakup and cover the wounds with more lies. This chorus repeats throughout, with the singer asking to be taken, to be mended, and to kiss the pain away so they can last another day. The lyrics are raw and unapologetically emotional, painting a vivid picture of heartache that anyone who has experienced a break-up can relate to.
