Dead Skin Lyrics - Crossfade - Crossfade

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) 

And I'm not sure where to begin 

I can't get under my dead skin 

(I can't shed my skin) 

Can I sleep 'til then? 

Phenobarbital and alcohol 

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 bare some days 

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 bare 

I can't get out of this dead skin 

(I can't shed my skin) 

And 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? 

I can't get out of this dead skin 

And I'm not sure where to begin 

I can't get under my dead skin 

Can I sleep 'til then? 

I can't get out of this dead skin 

(I can't shed my skin) 

And 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?
