Dead Skin (Album Version)

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)
Not sure where to begin
I can't get under my dead skin  (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today
Phenobarbitol  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 then I can bare
Somedays  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 then I can bare
I can't get out of this dead skin (I can't shed my skin)
I'm not sure where to begin
I can't get under my dead skin  (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today
I can't shed my skin
I can't shed my skin
I can't get out of this dead skin
Not sure where to begin
I can't get under my dead skin
Can I sleep today
I can't get out of this dead skin (I can't shake my skin)
Not sure where to begin
I can't get under my dead skin  (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today
