Skin

Lyrics for Skin

Needle point dancing over pale skin Tailspin into ecstasy that loves me like I never will Show me how to navigate harsh relationships, That poke me, prod me, castigate a mistake I made long ago When I come home cold and tired I hide in my room When I come out there's a witch hunt waiting to burn My tiny little lies pile up sky high When I tie knots in the facts, cobwebs tear apart Light shines on who I was in the past, And how things never last, the curse is cast Pills swallow me whole, life left in a hole I wanna go home A tiny dose relieves this pressure building up Get inside me. Warm my veins, an unrelenting lullaby. Nodding off, the world melts in a rainbow, The glow is blinding. It cripples me into a puddle on the floor. When I come home cold and tired I hide in my room When I crawl out there's a witch hunt waiting to burn My tiny little lies pile up sky high When I tie knots in the facts, cobwebs tear apart Light shines on who I was in the past, And how things never last, the curse is cast Pills swallow me whole, life left in a hole I wanna go home
