Skin - Meat lyrics

rate me

You taste what you want from me

You taste all of the gristle

From the bones I need

To stand up to you

To live up to fools

It's too troubling

Can't take what you like from me

Can't take all of the vision

That your money thieves

Don't be careless now

Just a pretty babe

A cool covering

You can't hide. No-

You can't hide the way you feel

(You're just) dead inside this meat

That you're smothering

You can't run. No-

You just stumble, crash and cry

(Without) asking questions why

It's all crumbling

Dark eyes beauties never cheap

Dark hair, dark lips maybe

That I want to cheat

(See my) sorry face

(In this) love that fails

It's all good for me

Slick baby that ain't worrying

Slick rage, strong is the ego

That I want to test

In your head of lies

Cut me down to size

It's all credible

You can't hide. No-

You can't hide the way you feel

(You're just) dead inside this meat

That you're smothering

You can't run. No-

You just stumble, crash and cry

(Without) asking questions why

Pure fear that you're falling for

These tears, thick in the sadness

That was running before

Welling up in dread

For a softer bed

I'm not worrying

You're so sane, all the lines you shed

So cool so good the picture

For those crazy hoods

Got this gun for keeps

Stick it in this meat

I'm not hurrying

You can't hide. No-

You can't hide the way you feel

(You're just) dead inside this meat

That you're smothering

You can't run. No-

You just stumble, crash and cry

(Without) asking questions why

It's all crumbling
