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 fall from grace

God, the cops, the government
Make you hesitate
They beat you 'til 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
