Six O Clock Saints - Skin lyrics

rate me

Lets finish what we've started<br />

Never sleeping<br />

Minds hardened<br />

Slow to chase the taste away<br />

You never prey<br />

On idealistic ways<br />

Drugged up<br />

Hard hearted<br />

Can't stop it the vibe that we started<br />

Ignoring the worlds instructions<br />

I realize it's<br />

<br />

Hard to find the truth<br />

In all the things we do<br />

To keep ourselves removed<br />

From all the love entombed<br />

In this abused skin<br />

<br />

If broken skin is all that<br />

I'll risk then<br />

I'll take that<br />

Better pain to live my way<br />

Apathy keeps you safe<br />

In a cowards way<br />

I'm scared<br />

But hopeful<br />

That ma was right when she said all<br />

Love in all it's warmth<br />

Will wrap you up<br />

And keep you safe<br />

From all that's cold<br />

<br />

If I would say to you<br />

I can't exist like you<br />

Would it be so taboo<br />

To cope in some way new<br />

Devoid of hardened skin<br />

<br />

All I've learned of life<br />

I should have learned in kindergarten<br />

Guarded heart<br />

And selfish mind hand me downs<br />

Have a way of being cozy<br />

I don't know how to end this<br />

It's seeping in my skin<br />

I'm running round in circles<br />

Because my walls are closing in<br />

It's tearing at my insides<br />

And it's laughing at my sin<br />

I know it's time for change because<br />

I hate the way we've been<br />

<br />

As a pup I knew<br />

Every ounce of love your due<br />

Is out there waiting to<br />

Be gathered round and passed around<br />

And spread beyond yourselves<br />

Give in to something new<br />

Every chance that you get<br />

To get beyond their guard and<br />

Touch skin
