Inside My Skin


Needles

Under my skin...

Knives

Cutting within...

Chains

Pinching too tight...

Walls

Blocking the light...

Blood

Seeping out through...

Tears

So fresh and new...

Ropes

Take away breath...

Alcohol

Choking to death...

Smoke

In the eyes...

Tongues

Speaking lies...

Eyes

Looking down...

Thorns

Form a crown...

Holes

In the heart...

Pieces

Torn apart...

Arms

Blood dripping...

Bugs

Dozens nipping...

Ghosts

So pale and so thin...

Scars

They're Inside my Skin...
