In My Skin

As the blood drips on the carpet The drinks spill to the floor You try so hard to ignore it It starts to eat you raw The crumbs fall from the tables Another falls from grace God, the cops, the government Make you hesitate They beat you till you're sober Work you to the bone Take the shit they're feeding you Enslaved yet no one knows In my skin, I am lost once again I find myself reaching for the rope again Break my bones just to see, come alive again Happiness is fleeting, love is just a myth Some will take all you've got Most don't give a shit So full, but you're empty The future's pretty bleak Take apart the wholeness Burn the incomplete If you think you felt it The clocks steal all the time Praying is so overrated Nowhere left to hide In my skin, I am lost once again I find myself reaching for the rope again Break my bones just to see, come alive again Don't you pray, pray for me Don't you tell me I am free Don't you say me I'm the creep In my skin, I am lost once again I find myself reaching for the rope again Break my bones just to see, come alive again
