Dead Skin lyrics
Songwriters: Sloan, Edward;

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?
