Skin Versus Bone Lyrics

To avoid a sense of eventual dread

I'll disguise myself as a body that's already dead

By the time I sobered up

It was too late to get out

Comfort's dragging me down

Comfort's dragging me down

So tell me where does your skin crawl to

When your skeleton sells the benefits

Of cutting and running and living like kids

Tell me where does your skin crawl to

When your heartbeat's overgrown

You're waiting up nightly for a better life

Always waiting up nightly while your patience was wearing thin

To what degree am I expected to bend

To make sure plans in which I'm not invested

Work out in the end

Can I pick up from where I left off from?

Did I leave off somewhere worth picking up from?

Impulse and memory

Drive a ghost through the shadows of all this machinery

With my teeth in my tongue

All I've done is keep you from

The sad truth

Of your now dire situation

With your hands

On your hips

You're waiting there just to give me shit

Tell me where does your skin crawl to

When your skeleton sells the benefits

Of cutting and running and living like kids

Tell me where does your skin crawl to

When your heartbeat's overgrown

You're waiting up nightly for a better life

Always waiting up nightly while your patience was wearing thin
