Lyrics: Dead Skin

So I'm the king of all these things Of this mess I have made Such a waste, what a shame My whole life is a fake Well I'm a bore, and I'm sure I'm a thorn inside of you That has torn at you for years The alcohol, the demerol These things never could replace What a minute with you could do To put a smile on my face I'm a bore and I'm sure I'm a thorn inside of you That has torn at me for years I can't get out of this dead skin I can't shed my skin I'm not sure where to begin Why can't I begin again I can't get under my dead skin I can't shed my skin Can I sleep 'til then Phenobarbitol and alocohol These two surely will do To knock me out keep me down At least a day or two When I'm awake I can taste How bitter I've become And it's more than I can bear somedays I pray someone will blow me away Make it quick but let it burn So I can feel my life fade Well I'm a waste and I can taste How bitter I've become And it's more than I can bear I can't shed my skin I can't shed my skin
